Description

Hiawatha is an advanced and secure webserver for Unix.

Hiawatha offers protection against SQL injections, Cross-site Scripting (XSS), Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF/XSRF) and DoS attacks.

Hiawatha supports the FastCGI protocol, including load balancing, for improved CGI performance.

Via Hiawatha's built-in reverse proxy, you can easily integrate other web solutions or use Hiawatha as an application firewall to protect other webservers.
