ASM XSS Protection

Hello All,

 

When configuring ASM, I need to enable Response Signature to block simple XSS such as window.alert.

 

Please inform which kind of XSS that can be blocked WITHOUT enabling Response Signature.

 

Thank you,

    I don't believe there are any XSS signatures which apply to responses; they apply only to requests. As for the kind of XSS that can be blocked all we have to go on is the name of the signature since the actual expression cannot be seen.
