    What is Cloudflare WAF?

    Cloudflare WAF is a global web application firewall that runs at the edge across Cloudflare's network, with custom rules, managed rule sets, and rate limiting that sit in front of HTTP traffic before it reaches origin.

    Why connect Cloudflare WAF to Konvu

    • Let the Mitigation Engineer ship targeted Cloudflare WAF rules for exploitable findings the Application Security Engineer has confirmed, closing the exploit window in minutes.
    • Test every rule against known exploit signatures and a sample of legitimate traffic before deployment, with rollback if false-positive rates go bad.
    • Retire rules automatically when the Remediation Engineer confirms the upstream fix has shipped, so compensating controls don't silently become permanent.

    How it works

    1

    Receive exploit conditions

    The Mitigation Engineer reads the verified exploit path from the Application Security Engineer.

    2

    Draft & test rule

    A Cloudflare WAF custom rule is drafted scoped to the vulnerable code path and tested against the exploit signature and your legitimate traffic.

    3

    Deploy with approval flow

    The rule is deployed to your Cloudflare zone via the approval flow your team has configured.

    4

    Monitor & retire

    Blocks and false positives are monitored in production; the rule is removed once the Remediation Engineer confirms the fix is live.
