Hi.
Since ConfigServer  in no longer available do you have any plan to replace/integrate in cPanel the GPL3 CSF community version or any other variant to continue to provide to up-to-date exploit protection?
Or do you have any alternative/plan regarding CSF replace option?

  CSF is a third-party software and has no relation to cPanel or WebPros. Therefore, nothing related to CSF should be expected from cPanel. By design, CSF does not pose any long-term security risks; however, it may face compatibility issues with much newer operating systems (such as AlmaLinux 11–12). This is not a short-term concern, so you can continue using CSF without any problems.

  If this situation still bothers you, there is no other software as capable as CSF. You would need to perform your operations manually using iptables commands.
