Can specific paths or IP addresses be excluded from WAF protection?

Yes. You can configure exclusions for specific paths or use regular expressions to define excluded areas. This keeps the filter from interfering with internal or critical services.

What IP address does the Cloud Defender CDN use?

To prevent WAF bypass, you can configure the filter to accept requests only from our CDN. Whitelist the IP address 34.110.162.74 (secure.aegister.com).

Can I downgrade from HTTPS to HTTP between the WAF and the protected site?

Yes, you can downgrade from HTTPS to HTTP between the WAF and the protected site, though this weakens security and we do not recommend it.

What advantages does Cloud Defender offer over solutions like AWS Cloudfront + WAF?

Cloud Defender provides IP masking, DDoS protection, a conventional WAF, and caching. What sets it apart is that it blocks traffic from malicious sources automatically, using threat intelligence data from OneFirewall. If an attacker is identified during an attack on another target, the system blocks that source from reaching your site.
