No idea how you would download it either - there doesn't seem to be a
registration or download link - and I have never used it.

My 2cents is that it may be useful as a defense-in-depth measure,  but it's
not a replacement for proper coding.  Eg, I don't suppose labrova would know
the difference between an input expecting a number vs text, nor whether a
textarea or email input must accept potentially dangerous characters like
"<", "'" etc.

I've never used this either, but the authors of mod_security also have a
module to profile the type of traffic and inputs your application normally
gets.  It can then filter anything outside of this whitelisted profile.
