Introduction to How to Automate Cloudflare
Introduction
Cloudflare is a security service that enhances the performance of a website. Cloudflareunder attack mode can provide additional security and protection to any website which is under attack.
Even if any website needs DDOS protection or mitigation, Cloudflare under Attack Mode can add securities to that also.
This is why learning how to automate Cloudflare under attack mode can be useful for running a website of your own.
Why should you use Automate Cloudflare Under Attack Mode?
When you enable Cloudflare under attack mode, it will increase the load percentage on the webserver by using the API of Cloudflare.
You should use Cloudflare under attack mode whenever you need them. But make sure that you don’t use this permanently.
Because using Cloudflare under attack mode permanently to run a site is not a good idea for visitors. It can indicate a DDOS attack when the script will be activated under a high load percentage in CPU.
This is why you should only use under attack mode when you want to increase the load percentage in CPU or webserver.
How you can automate this mode?
This is what this article is all about. Once you are well aware of the whole process, you will be able to run your site perfectly. DDOS attack on your site won’t scare you anymore.
Cloudflare under attack mode creates a service that uses a timer to run. It executes the main shell script of any server and gets it into the security level of Cloudflare to check out the usage of CPU in the webserver.
When CPU usage crosses the specified limit, then it goes into the API of Cloudflare and automatically activates the under attack mode to increase the security level of the system.
But when the CPU usage is not beyond the limit, then it will automatically set the security level to the neutral point again after the time limit.
This is how you can automate Cloudflare under attack mode on your website to protect it from any cyber or DDOS attack.
