Block requests by attack score
The attack score helps identify variations of known attacks and their malicious payloads.
This example custom rule blocks requests based on country code (ISO 3166-1 Alpha 2 ↗ format), from requests with an attack score lower than 20. For more information, refer to WAF attack score.
- Expression:
