[mod-security-users] Open Fraud Detection Project: New Feature

[Josh Amishav-Z. <ja...@ow...>]

In order to help detect new account creation fraud, we added a new feature
to the OFDEP API to calculate the distance (currently in kilometers, miles
will be supported soon) between the IP submitting the request and the
address specified when creating the account. For example, if the IP
creating an account comes from China but the account address specified is
in Brasil, that can be used along with other clues in the request to
indicate that the account is fraudulent. For details on how to use the API
as well as how to integrate this into your ModSecurity instance see:
