CrowdSec AlternativesFirewalls and other similar apps like CrowdSec
CrowdSec is described as 'Security automation engine, using both local IP behavior detection & our community-driven IP reputation database' and is a Firewall in the security & privacy category. There are five alternatives to CrowdSec for Linux, Windows and Self-Hosted. The best CrowdSec alternative is Fail2ban, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like CrowdSec are IPBanPro, reaction, Denyhosts and SpyLog.
21 Fail2ban alternativesFail2ban scans log files (e.g. /var/log/apache/error_log) and bans IPs that show the malicious signs -- too many password failures, seeking for exploits, etc. Generally Fail2Ban is then used to update firewall rules to reject the IP addresses for a specified amount of time...

IPBanPro Features
IPBanPro VS CrowdSec
Inspired by the honorable Fail2ban, it intend to provide a more lightweight (CPU wise) alternative, easy to configure and well documented.
reaction VS CrowdSec
The idea of denying access to SSH servers is nothing new and I was inspired by many other scripts that I discovered. However, none of them did things the way I envisioned them to. Also, they were all shell scripts which do not offer the elegance of Python.
Denyhosts VS CrowdSec
Monitor logs from several sources and execute actions based on some rules. Can be used to protect against brute-force attacks.
SpyLog VS CrowdSec
