About Diffee and KIPBan

In their own words, as submitted to SaaSHub.

Diffee
KIPBan

No description of Diffee yet.

KIPBan protects a fleet of servers from password brute-forcing. A lightweight agent reads the Windows Event Log (event 4625 and others) or works with fail2ban + ipset on Linux. When one server bans an attacker, every server in your fleet blocks it within 5 minutes.

Questions & Answers

As answered by people managing Diffee and KIPBan.

Why should a person choose your product over its competitors?

KIPBan's answer:

  • Windows and Linux in one fleet. IPBan and RdpGuard focus on single machines, fail2ban is Linux-only.
  • On Linux it works on top of your existing fail2ban instead of replacing it.
  • On Windows the agent is compiled from source on your own server, with no downloaded binaries.
  • The agent opens no inbound ports and sends only the attacker's IP and ban duration.
  • Log analysis on the server shows which attacks your current jails miss.
  • First two servers free with no card, then pay-as-you-go per server per day. No subscription.

What makes your product unique?

KIPBan's answer:

A ban on one server protects all of them. When any server in your fleet catches an attacker guessing passwords, every other Windows and Linux server blocks that IP within 5 minutes. One panel for both Windows (RDP, MS SQL, Exchange) and Linux (SSH, mail, web, databases), with escalating bans and an optional global database of attackers seen by all KIPBan users.

How would you describe the primary audience of your product?

KIPBan's answer:

System administrators, MSPs and small hosting providers who run several Windows and/or Linux servers exposed to the internet (RDP, SSH, mail, databases) and are tired of each server fighting the same botnets separately.

What's the story behind your product?

KIPBan's answer:

KIPBan was built by people who run the servers it protects. Our own fleet of about 20 Windows and Linux servers sees around 500 new attacking IPs a day. Every tool we tried protected one machine at a time, so each server had to learn about the same botnet on its own. We wanted a ban on one server to protect all of them, on Windows and Linux alike, so we built it and developed it on that live fleet under constant attack.

Which are the primary technologies used for building your product?

KIPBan's answer:

Windows agent: .NET Framework 4.x, Windows Event Log, Windows Firewall. Linux agent: Python, fail2ban, iptables + ipset, systemd. Web panel and API over HTTPS.
