ASM Policy that could read response and block source IP

Hi All

Is there a WAF Policy that could be configured to read the response sent by my webserver to the user and block the source IP if the response has "xx" number of unauthenticated occurrences within a specific period of time from the same source IP?

Was wondering if this type of configuration would auto-block the source IP that is attempting an ongoing password-spraying or credential-stuffing attack on the website, considering the ReCaptcha is somehow bypassed.

Does F5's ASM have this capability?

 

Thanks

Sam

Hi @sim2022 , 

> To log server responses , you can do as  below Article : 

 https://techdocs.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_asm/manuals/product/asm-implementations-12-1-0/14.h...

> to block number of specific of unauthenticated  trials at specific time slots , configure a brute force attack protection , follow the below articles: 

- https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K54335130

- https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K18650749

Note : you have to define your "login page" , with its parameters well , after that proceed in brute force protection profile. 

> I recommend to use brute force protection profile because you able to monitor and see unauthenticated user behavior well , also collect statistics if there is a brute force attack from ASM reporting.

I hope this helps you.
