ModSecurity doesn’t have a graphical interface and if you are looking for the one then you may consider using WAF-FLE. It let you store, search and view the event in a console.

The fact that you're looking for a GUI for mod_security confirms how difficult this software is to use.  If it is at all possible, use mod_rewrite rules or some other module.

This got me laughing.

No disrespect.

Just that mod_security is such a beast, it's barely useable at the command line.

Trying to wrap a GUI onto of mod_security would be quite a project... like a life calling...

Maybe describe exactly the type of attacks you're targeting to mitigate + my guess is someone can suggest a solution.

Well, there is an open source tool now:
https://pypi.org/project/modseccfg/
  • Though it's Mac/BSD/Linux-only (requires Python/Tkinter/sshfs).
  • And is mostly about configuration, not many audit/monitoring features (other than log scanning).
  • Unlike commercial tools (netnea or securely.ai or comodo) it's a proper Desktop GUI tool, not a web interface.

User generated image 

Has a couple of options to set Core Rule Set options and Apache directives for mod_security. But it's mostly for disabling or restricting SecRules - depending on error counts from access and audit logs.
