+===== pfBlockerNG =====
+pfBlockerNG is the very first package I install after configuring a brand new pfSense and in some cases, it is the only one.
+pfBlockerNG can add other security enhancements such as blocking known bad IP addresses with blocklists and blacklist countries based on IP ranges.
+pfBlockerNG is a pfSense package maintained by @BBcan177 (on Twitter).
+BBCan177 has a [[https://www.patreon.com/pfBlockerNG|Patreon campaign]] where you can easily donate a few bucks to ensure he continues maintaining and adding to the package.  If you are using this in a production environment, I highly encourage you to donate.
