Temporary Ban/Rate-Limit for Excessive Requests in Cloudflare?
Hi everyone,
I'm experiencing a situation where my website's backend is being overwhelmed by intense spam requests. Although I can ban users or set request limits on my server side, I'm looking for a solution within Cloudflare. Is there a feature or a configuration option in Cloudflare that allows for automatically applying a temporary ban or rate limit (for example, blocking access for 10 minutes) when a user sends an excessive number of requests at once? Any advice or best practices would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
