SafeLine open-source WAF pitched as Cloudflare alternative

Original: Cloudflare WAF runs hundreds a month. SafeLine is open-source, self-hosted: your server, your logs. 18,000+ security tea

SafeLine, an open-source, self-hosted web application firewall, is being promoted as a lower-cost alternative to Cloudflare's paid WAF, which can run to hundreds of dollars a month. The tool claims more than 18,000 security teams use it to block SQL injection, XSS and RCE attacks. Because it is self-hosted, users keep control of their own servers and logs, a point of interest for teams weighing cost and data ownership.

Why now: Renewed interest in open-source, self-hosted security tools as an alternative to costly managed WAF services.
