Implement a Challenge Page via WAF custom rules
You can implement a Challenge Page to your website or application by creating a WAF custom rule.
Challenges are triggered by a rule in the Web Application Firewall (WAF), Bot Management, or Rate limiting.
- Bot Management: You can set the custom rule to challenge a visitor based on the bot score or detection ID.
 - Rate limiting: You can challenge visitors based on your defined rate limits.
