[Cloudflare] You can now customize your HTTP DDoS protection settings

You can also view this email as a webpage. We're excited to announce the general availability of the HTTP DDoS Managed Rules. The feature is available for Cloudflare customers on all plans. Customizing your DDoS Protection settings We expect that in most cases, you won't need to customize any settings. However, in some rare cases, there is a need to make some configuration changes. If your HTTP application receives odd traffic patterns, naively violates protocol standards or causes spiky behavior this may be flagged by the DDoS protection system. To avoid impact to your traffic during such cases, you can now customize the system's action and sensitivity levels directly from within the dashboard or via the API. Previously, a support ticket was required for this process. If you haven't experienced this issue previously, there is no action required on your end. If however, you would like to customize your DDoS protection settings, go directly to the DDoS tab or follow these steps: Log in to the Cloudflare dashboard, and select your account and website. Go to Firewall > DDoS. Next to HTTP DDoS attack protection, click Configure. In Ruleset configuration, select the action and sensitivity values for all the rules in the HTTP DDoS Managed Ruleset. Pre-existing customizations If you previously contacted Cloudflare Support to apply customizations, the DDoS Ruleset has been set to Essentially Off or Low for your zone, based on your existing customization. You can visit the dashboard to view the settings and change them if you need. If you've requested to exclude or bypass the mitigations for specific HTTP attributes or IPs, or if you've requested a significantly high threshold that requires Cloudflare approval, then those customizations are still active but may not yet be visible in the dashboard. Zero-touch DDoS protection The next evolutionary step is to make those settings learn and auto-tune themselves for you, based on your unique traffic patterns. But in the meantime this feature can help you improve the protection accuracy for your specific application needs.
