Looking for testers Q-Feeds plugin

[Q-Feeds]

Hi everyone,

We've been working on a new plugin for OPNsense and are now at the stage where we'd love some community feedback. The plugin is developed in cooperation with Deciso, and we're looking for users who are willing to test it on their own setups.

We are Q-Feeds, a provider of Threat Intelligence. We focus on delivering high-quality, real-time data about malware IPs, malicious domains, and phishing URLs, making it easier to block threats before they reach your network. Our goal is to make threat intelligence accessible to everyone by offering native integrations with firewalls, SIEMs, and other security platforms. Obviously we can't miss OPNsense on our list of supported platforms!

If you're interested in trying it out and sharing your experience, please let us know here in the thread or via DM. We will provide you with the installation details (one prebuilt command). Your feedback will really help us improve before a wider release in the plugins repository.

Thanks in advance for your support!

Best regards,

Stefan Sprenkels
Founder Q-Feeds

Interested!

Network engineer for almost 4 decades. Don't actually believe in IDS/IPS so if you have any novel approach compared to e.g. Zenarmor, I'd be even twice as interested.

Ditched Crowdsec, because while the approach is very appealing their free tier is not really useful and there is no offer for home use, i.e. in the range of 100 €/$ per year.

Kind regards,
Patrick

Wow, that was fast thanks for jumping in so quickly! Q-Feeds takes a different approach than IDS/IPS – we focus on blocking threats at the firewall level using real-time intel (malware IPs, domains, phishing URLs), so no heavy inspection overhead. Although for this testing period only IP based blocking will be available.

Totally agree with you on pricing, we want to keep things fair and also accessible for home use. You can find a bit more info here: https://qfeeds.com/opnsense . We provide a free community edition but also a plus and premium package including access to our Threat Intelligence Portal for IOC lookups f.e.

I'll DM you the install details so you can give it a spin. Looking forward to your feedback!

Hi Stefan,

Definately interested to provide a testbed with my setup.
I have tried Suricata as well as Crowdsec. Crowdsec appealed to me most, but indeed kinda limited in terms of affordability.
Since i am running a few public NTP servers i would especially be interested if Q-Feeds also caters for NTP  threats.
Kindly provide me the details.

Thanks!

I installed the plugin, signed up to the website, got the API key, put it into the plugin, checked the ALIAS contents and it was populated.

I didn't run into any weird issues, so works for me. Overall very smooth.

Hi there,

interested too. Not running any service for the ouside world but I just want to give it a spin and see. Used Zenarmour (free version) in the past.
