Don E Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Hello, Is anyone familiar with ModSecurity? I was wondering if anyone knows if or if it's possible for ModSecurity to hinder or prevent a website from being properly indexed by search engines. I have the default rules that come with ModSecurity along with additional rules by OWASP. Sometimes I notice in the logs modsecurity giving 403's to authentic bots like google bot(s) for example because of things like 'missing header' etc. Thanks in advance.
