pkg install crowdsec
dnf install crowdsec
docker pull crowdsecurity/crowdsec
helm install crowdsec crowdsec/crowdsec -f crowdsec-values.yaml -n crowdsec --create-namespace
You now have crowdsec running ! You can move forward and install a bouncer, or take a tour of the software beforehand !
caution
Keep in mind that CrowdSec is only in charge of the "detection", and won't block anything on its own. You need to deploy a bouncer to "apply" decisions.

While we're suggesting the most common firewall bouncer, check our hub for more bouncers. Find a bouncer directly for your application (nginx, php, wordpress) or your providers (cloudflare, AWS/GCP/...)
