My main use case for Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules is to protect from malware like DDoS incidents, against cross-site scripting, against SQL injections, and against geofencing. These are the areas which we majorly use cloud security and our cybersecurity managed rules. A recent scenario of how I use Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules to protect against one of those threats is that we have a specific application where only Italy is in-market, which means only Italian people can access that site because our sales are only in the Italian market. However, when we get human traffic from countries like Nigeria, Iran, and Pakistan, where we do not have any sales, the traffic still comes from such countries as DDoS requests. Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules automatically blocks those countries where we do not have sales.
Our main use case for Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules is mostly web application because it protects the front end and also with the CDN we are using it, so it protects the CDN exposed applications as well.A specific example of how we have used Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules to protect our web applications or CDN is that we have a proper dashboard of all attacks that were attempted on those exposed URLs at the application level and we have clear visibility. Whenever there is some type of IP which is trying to DDoS our domain, then it gets automatically blocked and we have configured alerts as well. We do get a consolidated report weekly and monthly that shows a lot of hits, what the IP was, and that it was automatically blocked. We also have AI workload, so it is important to consider that in our main use case for Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules. We are catering to that in our workflow and trying to manage it so that even our AI workflows do not have prompt injections or, if we are having agents, we do not get man-in-the-middle attacks with the prompts.

My main use case for Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules is to prevent basic cyber attacks that happen most commonly using a Web Application Firewall. Regarding my main use case and experience, the Web Application Firewall handles basic attacks. There is also a dashboard where I can check how these rules are blocking requests. I can check from which countries are sending more vulnerable requests towards us, which is very useful. I can give a specific example of a situation where I used the managed rules to block or prevent an attack. In my recent project, the Web Application Firewall prevented attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and brute force attempts. I was getting many requests from different servers, which may have been a DDoS attack. I had already written a managed rule for this situation. I created a custom rule in which if many requests come from a specific source, they will be blocked.
My main use case for Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules is for the API Gateway and for OWASP security.I am integrating these WAF rules with the API Gateway and CloudFront to ensure security from cybersecurity issues, minimizing vulnerabilities and mitigating threats from hackers, including the OWASP top 10 web application threat lists. I have configured it for our front end and for the API Gateway. I am using Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules for our GenAI applications, specifically for the chatbot I have recently created, which helps tremendously and prevents hackers' exploits in our application.
