About

This container implements the Atomicorp NGINX Web Application Firewall (ModSecurity v3). It is designed to act as a reverse proxy, and supports automatic container detection and configuration. Rule policies are shared with the container over a volume

Installation

1. Register for WAF rule updates at https://atomicorp.com/pricing/

2. Create volume directories for /etc/nginx/conf.d and /etc/httpd/modsecurity.d

   mkdir -p ~/waf/conf.d mkdir -p ~/waf/modsecurity.d

3. Download nginx ruleset at: https://updates.atomicorp.com/channels/rules/nginx-latest/, and extract the archive:

   tar xvf nginx-waf-201802271105.tar.gz

4. Copy the master nginx config:

   cp rules/conf/00_mod_security.conf ~/waf/conf.d cp rules/conf/tortix_waf.conf ~/waf/modsecurity.d/ cp rules/* ~/waf/modsecurity.d/

Usage

Basic

DEFAULT_HOST declares the nginx default host

docker run -d -p 80:80 -e DEFAULT_HOST=www.example.com -v /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro -v ~/waf/conf.d:/etc/nginx/conf.d -v ~/waf/modsecurity.d:/etc/httpd/modsecurity.d atomicorp/nginx-waf-docker

With SSL certificates

docker run -d -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -v /path/to/certs:/etc/nginx/certs -v /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro -v ~/waf/conf.d:/etc/nginx/conf.d -v ~/waf/modsecurity.d:/etc/httpd/modsecurity.d atomicorp/nginx-waf-proxy

Name-Based virtual host support

available with the environmental variable -e VIRTUAL_HOST=www.example.com. Note that name based virtual host certificates (if used)use naming convention <VIRTUAL_HOST>.key and <VIRTUAL_HOST>.crt Example: www.example.com.key and www.example.com.crt

docker run -e VIRTUAL_HOST=www.example.com -d -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -v /path/to/certs:/etc/nginx/certs -v /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro -v ~/waf/conf.d:/etc/nginx/conf.d -v ~/waf/modsecurity.d:/etc/httpd/modsecurity.d atomicorp/nginx-waf-proxy
