NGINX WAF alternatives: App Protect vs. ModSecurity vs. open-appsec
ModSecurity is an open source project, with its codebase open for third-party contributions. It has an active GitHub community of open source developers who maintain the project and fix issues. You can easily fork this WAF and tune features yourself. However, with its backing organization announcing ModSecurity's end of support, you can expect little to no active development from the vendor in the future.
Since Nginx has different use cases, protecting your application depends on how and where you use it. It's recommended that you have a reliable WAF solution since they block most harmful requests in the first place. In this article, you'll compare three tools—ModSecurity, F5 Nginx App Protect, and open-appsec—based on their active development, advanced security features, and open source commitment to help you figure out which tool is right for you.

What (software, open source) WAF are you using with (open source) Nginx?
I'm currently erring toward ModSecurity & the Nginx connector now that it's been de-Apache'd.

WordPress sites getting hacked ‘within seconds’ of TLS certificates being issued
Is anyone on HN doing WordPress administration? I recently 'inherited' a webshop built on WP/WooCommerce, and all the conflicting security advice in the WP space is making my head spin.
There are a dozen competing 'security' plugins, with some saying 'you don't need any of them, WP is secure enough by default', and others saying 'you actually need ModSecurity [1] / Jeff Starr's nG firewall [2]'.
The agency that (shoddily...) built the webshop installed Wordfence Free [3], so I've just kept that for now, though I feel it's kind of slow (but that might just be caused by the bottom-of-barrel performance of the shared webhost it's currently running on).

Bulletproof at home hosting?
When it comes to your application: I don't know how tech-savvy you are, and I'm not sure if you're worried about someone breaking into your webapp, but you could look into setting up security extentions like snuffleupagus (PHP) and SpiderLab's ModSecurity WAF for Apache and nginx for which OWASP has a great, free ruleset

Best free security plugin for WP website?
I would recommend mod security which can be installed as a module for most web services like nginx and apache (and is open source). You can use the OWASP ruleset with some additional wordpress specific rulesets.
