Mod_evasive on IIS

It provides protection and evasive action in the event of an HTTP DoS-, DDoS or brute force attack. Detection is performed by creating an internal dynamic hash table of IP Addresses and URIs, and denies an IP address access to a website if it's requesting the same page more than 10 times a second. This is configurable.
