[1-Stream]

We want to share a quick guide on how to use the Autoblock Addon to harden your system security. This tool helps mitigate brute-force attacks by monitoring logs and automatically banning malicious actors.

Important Note: This is a paid addon designed exclusively for users of 1-Stream software.

How it Works​

The system monitors the Security Log, tracking failed authentication attempts, line validation errors, and other suspicious activities. When an IP hits a specific threshold defined by your rules, the Autoblock Addon automatically moves them to the system's Blacklist IPs.

Getting Started​

• Activation: Once the addon is installed, the first step is to set the Autoblocker to Enabled.
• Firewall Integration: You can also enable Use iptables if you want the system to generate native firewall entries for more robust protection.
• Rule Configuration: We currently offer 3 Sets of Rules (with more coming soon!). You have the flexibility to enable or disable these specific rule sets based on your security preferences.

Management & Whitelisting​

• Whitelisting: If you have trusted IPs that should never be blocked (such as your own or your team's), you can add them to the Whitelist to exclude them from the rules.
• Monitoring: All current blocks can be reviewed and managed within the Blacklist Section of the system.

Console Commands (CLI)​

For those who prefer working in the terminal, you can manage your blocks via the command line:

• List all active blocks:

  php artisan autoblock:list

• Clear all active blocks:

  php artisan autoblock:clear all

• Clear a specific block by ID:

  php artisan autoblock:clear single [BLOCK_ID]

  
  Example:

  php artisan autoblock:clear single 5ba62967-05ca-4ed8-ae4c-46dfe934197e
