Moox Firewall
=============

[](#moox-firewall)

Moox Firewall allows you to secure your Laravel application by restricting access to whitelisted IP addresses.

For maintenance or emergency access, you can enable a temporary backdoor using a secret access token.

Moox Firewall provides an additional security layer on top of your existing authentication mechanisms. It strengthens access control but does not replace Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) as defined by the BSI.

Support for MFA and modern Passkeys is planned for an upcoming release, see [Roadmap](ROADMAP.md) for more

    // Enable firewall?
    'enabled' => env('MOOX_FIREWALL_ENABLED', true),

    // Whitelist IP addresses
    'whitelist' => array_filter(explode(',', env('MOOX_FIREWALL_WHITELIST', ''))),

    // Logo to display on the firewall page
    'logo' => env('MOOX_FIREWALL_LOGO', 'img/logo.png'),

    // Backdoor allowed?
    'backdoor' => env('MOOX_FIREWALL_BACKDOOR', true),

    // Backdoor bypass token
    'backdoor_token' => env('MOOX_FIREWALL_BACKDOOR_TOKEN', 'let-me-in'),

    // Firewall page message
    'message' => env('MOOX_FIREWALL_MESSAGE', 'Moox Firewall'),

    // Firewall page color as hex
    'color' => env('MOOX_FIREWALL_COLOR', 'darkblue'),

    // Firewall page description
    'description' => env('MOOX_FIREWALL_DESCRIPTION', 'Please enter your access token to continue.'),
];
```
