You need to use Rate Limit rules with composite keys aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2023/05/aws-waf-rate-based-rules-request-headers-composite-keys/
@@DumbTutorials thank you I appreciate your help,do I need to put an EC2 instance inside a vpc or can i add directly I mean without VPC? , do you recommend put many instances on same load balancer? is there any disadvantage for doing that?
Hello, thanks for the tutorial, you are the best, but I have some doubts, when I activate the "Anonymous IP list" it blocks all access, even if this access comes from a reliable IP, like mine, it blocks me. This can be configured or something is wrong, I have this doubt, sorry for the inconvenience. Greetings from Peru, sorry for my bad English
The Anonymous IP contains the list of IPs of all known TOR exit nodes, Proxies, VPNs and Hosting providers Can you confirm than you are not using any of these? If possible, can you share your IP address?
I Have a query related to ALB, as my website is already having 3rd party SSL certificate and it's an HTTPS site, if I want to use and place ALB to handle traffic, should I generate a new certificate in AWS ACM and associate the same with ALB or can I use the same 3rd party certificate on ALB. Please clarify my confusion.
Using Amazon Certificate Manager(ACM) you may upload your existing certificate, and it will work fine. You need to upload (1) cert (2) cert chain (3) private key in ACM. Use the region where your ALB is.
@@DumbTutorials Thank you for your quick reply, I am a bit confused here, cetr1, cert2 ....cert3 are when we have more than one URL, to say multiple subdomains of the same domain right?
@@arunnandgadi4348 you may either use a wildcard certificate or a SAN certificate for different domain names. SAN certificate will allow you to have different domain name in 1 cert itself. You can generate free SAN certificate in ACM
Thanks for this helpful video. I have one question. I created a WordPress instance from Lightsail. now I want my traffic firstly hit on WAF and then Cloudfront. what should I need to do? Only open this WordPress option as you shown in this tutorial?
really nice illustration. 👍🏻 thanks. one request- please add more points on security automation, how to implement in details. if allow mode is on and override option selected at subrule then whats outcome. for dashboard, do we need ELK in place? regex not clear yet
Hi I am having a doubt, Consider a scenario where we have a WAF that allows only the US region but we also need to whitelist a list of Australian IP , Can I create an IP set for that or should I open my website to enitire of Australia
Sir I have a doubt ..The admin protection rule that u set i think it will be somewhere under under the property set rules that we configured so far ..Correct me if am wrong ? or u showcased for example purpose to understand ..
Very nice explanation ! I am new to WAF and after watching this video, I am confident enough to start with WAF. Sir, I have one doubt here. AWS WAF has some predefined quota. For example, we can only submit 25,000 requests per second per ACL. What is happen if we cross the threshold ? Will ACL block the new incoming requests after consuming the predefined quota ?
Hi Amol, This is specifically for AWS WAF hence I assumed that viewers will know what WAF is. But I will keep this in mind. Thank you for your valuable feedback.

Good video, I new to WAF and after watching this video, and why I cant see any data in cloudwatch or WAF dashbord?
The data is lagged by ~5 mins. You may also check if logs are generated correctly to verify rules/ACL are applied correctly.
Thanks for creating it. very nice
Most welcome 😊
Nicely explained

Good explanation

Thanks for this awesome tutorial !
How header rule, XSS etc will work if data is encrypted using HTTPS using certificates?
The data is decrypted using SSL certificate deployed at CloudFront or ALB.
@@DumbTutorials thanks for the answer which means that some of WAF protection is ineffective due to traffic is encrypted.
@@ajwathasan2317 If traffic is HTTPS, you will have to offload SSL cert there to decrypt traffic. It will not allow you to proceed without it.
Great explanation sir!!!
Glad you liked it
awesome and clear
Glad you liked it
Excellent that's a good one Thanks
good morning Sr , I was wondering if you can help me , how can I applied those rules an instance ec2?
AWS WAF cannot simply be protect EC2. However, you may put EC2 behind an ALB and then apply AWS WAF policies there.
@@DumbTutorials thank you I appreciate your help,do I need to put an EC2 instance inside a vpc or can i add directly I mean without VPC? , do you recommend put many instances on same load balancer? is there any disadvantage for doing that?

If I perform API testing to check whether the WAF(Web Acl) is blocked or allowed. Where can I see those in s3 bucket?
You can check in the log files in S3 bucket. You can search your IP address in the logs to get exact log line. That will tell the reason to block.
Really helpful
Thank you Piyush.
Nice explanation. However, you did not cover Rule Group.
Ah, thanks for pointing it out. I missed it and now cannot add it :-(. I will try to add it into my next video on WAF.
Nice session
Thank you 👍

how can we create waf though terraform
This should help you registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/aws/latest/docs/resources/wafv2_web_acl
Very good content Sir, thanks a lot!
Most welcome!
great explanation!
Thank you Gaurav bhai.

@@DumbTutorials yes I know 😉😍
can we get some rules for CVEs and malware hashes?
There are partner managed rules available for CVE's. I am not sure about malware hashes.
@@DumbTutorials thanks for the answer! I think its f5 partner for CVEs. Excellent video btw!!
really nice illustration. 👍🏻 thanks.
one request- please add more points on security automation, how to implement in details.
if allow mode is on and override option selected at subrule then whats outcome.
for dashboard, do we need ELK in place?
regex not clear yet
the override check box wins. For Custom dashboard, you can deploy ELK stack whose 1 click solution is available, search for "aws waf dashboard" in google.

Hi I am having a doubt, Consider a scenario where we have a WAF that allows only the US region but we also need to whitelist a list of Australian IP , Can I create an IP set for that or should I open my website to enitire of Australia
you can create an IP list with your ip and it will allow that Ip as well
how add URL in WEB ACL rule
You can add URL in Web ACL by creating a new custom rule, and then select URI to match and then match it there.
Sir I have a doubt ..The admin protection rule that u set i think it will be somewhere under under the property set rules that we configured so far ..Correct me if am wrong ? or u showcased for example purpose to understand ..
It will be under managed rules -> Amazon Managed Rules

BUT Shield advanced is like 3000$ per month right....
Thats correct. per month it will cost you 3k$ as per current pricing.
@@DumbTutorials yeah per organization though right. Could you please do a tutorial on ACM PCA (its not available in free tier)
Very nice explanation ! I am new to WAF and after watching this video, I am confident enough to start with WAF. Sir, I have one doubt here.
AWS WAF has some predefined quota. For example, we can only submit 25,000 requests per second per ACL. What is happen if we cross the threshold ? Will ACL block the new incoming requests after consuming the predefined quota ?
You can always get the limit increased with the help of support team. Else, it might throttle your requests
@@DumbTutorials Thank you for responding the query !
Neat and Salary
First tell what is waf then do practical
