Secure your WP website from unauthorized access from web vulnerabilities, hence providing a secure connection between your internal services and external clients.

== Description ==

Reverse proxy server is helpful in protecting systems against web vulnerabilities, which adds an extra degree of security. In contrast to a regular proxy server, which protects clients, a reverse proxy protects servers. A reverse proxy is a server that receives a client's request, passes it to one of many other servers, and then delivers the results from the server that actually processed the request to the client as if the proxy server had handled it itself. The client only talks with the reverse proxy server and is unaware that its request was really handled by another server.
