Depends entirely on what you're looking to protect.  Did you
look at mod_security's core ruleset as a startingpoint?

mod_security came first, and made Ivan's name.  Having learned from
the experience, he and Brian then moved on to create Ironbee,
which is a much more general-purpose framework.  I'm not sure
how much active development mod_security gets since its original
team moved on.  The respective web sites will tell you more.

Neither - until you're clear about what goal you're seeking
to accomplish with a WAF.

Disclosure: I work on Ironbee, but I don't represent or speak for it.
