Nice browser you've got there. It'd be a shame if someone… logged it.

In Summary

You came. You saw. You got absolutely owned by a hedgehog.

Every request you made was detected, logged, and laughed at. Our WAF didn't even break a sweat. Maybe next time try something more challenging — like reading a book on operational security.

Pro tip: If you're going to hack a cybersecurity company, maybe don't use the same IP address for every single request. Just a thought.
