New! Rate Limiting analytics and throttling
Rate limiting rules are crucial for managing security threats such as volumetric attacks, spamming, and abuse. A new analytics experience has been introduced along with a throttle behavior feature for Enterprise rate limiting plans. This enhances the control over IP addresses exceeding predefined request thresholds by selectively dropping requests to maintain the specified threshold while minimizing impact on legitimate traffic. Customers can now define scopes and rates, validate their choices using sampled logs, and create rules with various actions and behaviors for maximum protection against security threats.
