BunkerWeb is a containerized suite of infrastructure tools that functions as a cloud-native web application firewall and Nginx reverse proxy. It provides a security layer for web applications, combining traffic routing with automated SSL certificate management and a web-based security dashboard for monitoring and configuration.
The project distinguishes itself through its deep integration with container orchestrators, serving as a Kubernetes ingress controller that automates security settings and service discovery via container labels. It features a plugin-based extension model and a management interface for real-time IP banning and attack monitoring.
The system covers a broad range of security and traffic capabilities, including signature-based threat detection, challenge-based bot mitigation, and identity-based access control. It manages network flow through load balancing, request rate limiting, and multi-tenant site isolation, while hardening browser-side security via HTTP response header configuration.
