IDS

Hey Community,

I'm looking solution for Intrusion detecting (IDS) in Phalcon app. I did it in application:beforeHandleRequest event & check all superglobal variabl such as $_REQUEST, $_POST, $_GET, $_COOKIES for any bad codes or scripts, but i don't know if it is standard or not. please help me if there is an advanced solution for this.
