Nope, only if you want to build yourself.

Download mod_security from download page here at ApacheLounge, and read the readme.txt for installing in your Apache.

What do you mean with configuring? The configure script for the build or the server config?

I read the readme.txt file. I am using the 64-bit version.
I copied the yajl.dll and libcurl.dll to the apache24/bin folder. I am on a windows 10 home version.
I then put copied and pasted the httpd.conf commands to the file. The with the admin version of cmd I did a httpd -k restart. It came up with an error.
The error is: AH00526: Syntax error on line 182 of "H:/Apache24/conf/httpd.conf:
Invalid Command 'SecRuleEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration"
I used the very quick start lines and copied them to httpd.conf to test.
How can I fix this and what can I do to get better security?
Thanks for your help.
Mark

Sure you have:

LoadModule security2_module modules/mod_security2.so

and un-commented:

LoadModule unique_id_module modules/mod_unique_id.so

?
