Active attacks we shut down through Cloudflare.

This service is for sites already behind Cloudflare. We use the dashboard, logs, and WAF to stop what is hitting the site right now.

Bot Traffic Targeting Specific Endpoints

Bots hammering a specific URL: a checkout page, search endpoint, wp-json, or REST API. The goal is to consume server resources without triggering a full site flood. We identify the targeted path in the logs and apply rate limiting or WAF rules scoped to that endpoint.

Brute Force on wp-login and xmlrpc.php

Thousands of login attempts per minute hitting WordPress is one of the most common attack patterns we see. We block them at the Cloudflare edge with WAF rules before the requests ever reach the server.

Credential Stuffing and Account Takeover Attempts

Bots testing stolen username and password combinations against a login form at scale. We deploy challenge rules and rate limits to stop the attempts without locking out real users.

IP Range and Country Blocking

When an attack is concentrated from specific IP ranges, ASNs, or countries, we block them at the Cloudflare edge. Fast to deploy and immediately effective against volume attacks from identifiable sources.

Form Spam and Contact Flooding

Contact forms, registration pages, and comment sections hammered by bots at volume. We add WAF rules and managed challenge responses to stop bot submissions without breaking the form for real visitors.

Custom WAF Rules Built from Live Traffic Logs

We read the Cloudflare firewall event logs and analytics to identify exactly what the attack looks like, then write WAF rules targeted at those specific request patterns, user agents, or request paths.

Rate Limiting and Request Throttling

Rate limiting rules that drop or challenge traffic once a threshold is hit per IP per time window. Tuned so legitimate users are not blocked while attack traffic is stopped before it reaches the origin server.

Post-Attack Hardening

After stopping the attack we review what was exposed and close the gaps. WAF rules are left in place, rate limits are set correctly, and we give you a summary of what happened and what was done to prevent it again.

DDoS Traffic Floods

High volume request floods that overwhelm shared and managed hosting. We enable Under Attack Mode, analyze the traffic pattern in the Cloudflare analytics, and configure rate limiting to stop the flood at the edge.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about active attack mitigation through Cloudflare.

Does my client already need to be on Cloudflare?

Yes. This service is specifically for sites already behind Cloudflare. If your client is not on Cloudflare yet and they are under attack, we can help with an emergency migration, but the fastest path to stopping an active attack is always through an existing Cloudflare account. See our Cloudflare setup service if they are not on it yet.

How fast can you respond?

Calling is the fastest path. If you call during business hours, we can often be in the Cloudflare dashboard within minutes. Tickets submitted for active attacks are flagged as urgent and responded to as fast as possible. Outside business hours, ticket monitoring is active for emergencies.

What access do you need to stop the attack?

We need access to the client’s Cloudflare account. Usually that means a Zoom session where you share your screen and we walk through it together, or you add us as a temporary collaborator. We do not ask for hosting credentials unless the issue requires a server-side change.

Can you guarantee the attack won’t happen again?

No. We cannot guarantee that attackers will not change tactics and try again. What we can do is stop the current attack and put WAF rules and rate limits in place that block that specific pattern going forward. Most opportunistic attacks move on when they hit real resistance. But a determined attacker who changes their approach will require additional response. We will always be honest with you about what the rules cover and what they do not.

What if the site is not on Cloudflare but it is under attack right now?

Call us directly. Getting a site onto Cloudflare during an active attack is possible and often the fastest way to stop it. Cloudflare sits in front of the server and can absorb the traffic almost immediately after nameservers are pointed. We have done this before and we can walk through it fast.
