Block and challenge traffic with Custom Rules

We’re excited to announce the release of a new feature: Custom Rules.
This addition allows you to take more control over how your traffic is handled, providing options to block, bypass, or challenge visitors based on specific criteria. The Custom Rules are available on enterprise plans and on request.

What’s New?

You can define custom rules to handle incoming requests:

  • Over 10 Filters to Choose From: Set rules using filters such as IP addresses, geolocation, user agents, device type, and more.
  • Flexible Actions:
    • Block unwanted traffic
    • Bypass trusted visitors
    • Challenge suspicious activity with a CAPTCHA
  • Combine Conditions: Use multiple filters to create tailored rules, like challenging visitors from specific countries with certain user agents or behaviors.
  • Rules can be enabled or disabled quickly

Getting Started

You can access Custom Rules for each Site in the Admin Portal under the new Rules tab. The rule builder is designed to be straightforward, so you can start creating and testing rules in no time.
