Implements Project Honey Pot's http:BL service for Drupal. http:BL can prevent email address harvesters and comment spammers from visiting your site by using a centralized DNS blacklist. It requires a free Project Honey Pot membership. This module provides efficient blacklist lookups and blocks malicious visitors effectively.
http:BL has been adopted for use to enhance protection on Drupal.org.
Features:
- http:BL lookups for visitor IPs
- Blocking of requests coming from blacklisted IPs
- Honeypot link placement on ban page and optionally in footer
- Greylisting: grants the user session-based access if they pass a simple challenge
- Greylisting threat-level threshold configurable in admin settings
- Blacklisting threat-level threshold configurable in admin settings
- Cron based expiration of stored visits are configurable
- An option for checking only for comment submissions
- Basic statistics on the number of blocked visits
New in Drupal 8!
- Blocked IPs are now stored as "Host" entities
- Hosts can be administratively managed via a new Admin View with bulk operations
- http:BL runs as a middleware service
- Drush commands: If you goof up and blacklist yourself, just "drush sos --stop", fix and restart
