CloudFlare Threat Control




Posted by Yujin, 08-10-2013, 12:38 AM
I just want to ask if anyone of you are using CloudFlare's threat control to allow only particular country? Example: Block All, Allow USA. I'm also curious if Incapsula is doing this? Thanks in advance.

You can use ‘IP Geolocation’settings of CloudFlare to redirect/block visitors from specific countries.

Still trying to find this in the panel. What I exactly wanted is block all location and allow one country. But I think the available option is to define each country that I want to block.

I don't think it'll be easy to block everything except one country. I'm only seeing it set up for blocking country at a time. Under the threat control area and adding a custom rule, you start typing the country name and it auto-fills with options. Then you'd select either trust or block. I don't think you can add a base "block all" though...

Our Threat Control currently doesn't allow for this easily, really. Our next version of Threat Control might.

You can do this with .htaccess rules and the IP geolocation headers added to all the requests in just a few minutes.

Correct. Even if our Threat Control doesn't handle this right now, we should still be honoring any .htaccess rules in place.

Looking forward to this Damon

Same here. I think the terminology is kind of confusing right now. It says "block" and really doesn't? We get a lot of confusion about that.
