Automatic protection for common web platforms

CloudFlare Pro or above customers benefit from the CloudFlare Web Application Firewall (WAF). For users of popular web platforms like WordPress, Drupal, Plone, WHMCS, and Joomla, it's advisable to check if the relevant WAF ruleset is enabled. The firewall automatically updates these rules when new vulnerabilities are discovered. Enabling a specific ruleset for your technology ensures immediate protection upon release of new rules. To enable a ruleset, simply toggle the ON/OFF button in the WAF Settings. For widespread issues like Heartbleed and Shellshock, CloudFlare provides automatic protection, but for technology-specific updates, enabling the appropriate ruleset is recommended.
