Curiefense is an application security platform that extends Envoy proxy to provide protection against various web application threats. The platform defends against multiple attack vectors including SQL injection, command injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), account takeovers (ATOs), application-layer DDoS attacks, remote file inclusion (RFI), and API abuse. Built as an extension to Envoy proxy, Curiefense integrates into existing infrastructure to provide real-time threat detection and mitigation capabilities for web applications and APIs. The platform includes comprehensive documentation with getting started guides, quick start instructions, and FAQ resources. Docker support is provided for containerized deployments. Community engagement is facilitated through multiple channels including Twitter, CNCF Community Group participation, and Slack communications. The project was named after scientist Marie Salomea Skłodowska Curie and released on her birthday, November 7th.
