Advanced WAF with Rate Limiting Using Flask

Original price was: ₹ 7,500.00.Current price is: ₹ 6,000.00.

An extension of the basic Flask-based WAF, this project incorporates advanced rate-limiting mechanisms to prevent Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. The rate-limiting system ensures that each IP address is allowed a set number of requests per minute or hour. Requests exceeding this threshold are blocked, helping to prevent server overloads or malicious automated attacks. Flask’s flexibility allows the integration of customizable rules based on various parameters, such as request volume and source address.

This advanced web application firewall project built with Flask includes rate-limiting functionality to protect against DDoS attacks and other types of abuse. The firewall limits the number of requests a user can make to the application within a specified timeframe, thus preventing flood attacks. The system also includes automatic IP blocking for repeated abusive requests. Python’s `flask-limiter` and `redis` are used for rate limiting and managing IP blocks.
