9.1 Billion Attack Requests. One Quarter. Most WAFs Were Not Ready for It.

The problem isn’t the volume. It’s WordPress WAF configuration that was never finished.

Wordfence blocked 9.1 billion WAF attack requests in Q4 2025 alone, originating from 12.5 million unique IP addresses. Most organizations see a number like that and assume their WAF is handling it. The ones running default rule sets are probably wrong.

Default rules are a starting point, not a finished configuration. We review your current posture, implement rule sets matched to your stack and traffic patterns, and validate that protections are actively working before the engagement closes.

  • WAF rule review and implementation tailored to your WordPress stack
  • Rate limiting configured to throttle automated and high-volume abusive traffic
  • Bot rule setup targeting scrapers, scanners, and credential stuffers
  • Post-configuration validation with a documented before/after comparison

Your CDN Is Either Working For You or Against You

A CDN caching configuration that’s wrong can hurt performance and expose you at the same time.

57% of WordPress vulnerabilities in the first half of 2025 could be triggered by any visitor without authentication. A CDN that caches authenticated pages, strips security headers, or bypasses your WAF rules doesn’t just fail to protect you. It creates its own exposure.

Cloudflare and similar CDNs ship with sensible defaults, but sensible isn’t the same as correctly configured for your site. We map caching rules to your actual content types, verify that admin paths and dynamic content are excluded, and confirm that performance gains aren’t coming at the cost of security posture.

  • Cache rule configuration scoped to your content types and URL structure
  • Security header review and enforcement, including HSTS and Content-Security-Policy
  • Exclusion rules for authenticated sessions, admin paths, and dynamic content
  • CDN performance validation with Core Web Vitals impact check

WAF / CDN Configuration Pricing

One flat setup fee. Keep us on for ongoing monitoring, or take it from there.

WAF / CDN Configuration is $750 for the full setup engagement, including WAF rule implementation, caching configuration, and impact validation. Add optional ongoing monitoring for $99/month, and we’ll flag anomalies, review rule performance, and keep configurations aligned with your evolving stack. Not sure what your current setup needs?

How Configuration Works

From kickoff to validated configuration in days. We handle the implementation so your team doesn’t have to figure it out.

Discovery

We review your current CDN and WAF setup, hosting environment, and traffic patterns.

Configuration

WAF rules and CDN caching behavior are implemented and tailored to your stack.

Validation

We test protections, confirm caching behavior, and document before/after results.

Ongoing Monitoring

Optional: $99/month for rule reviews, anomaly alerts, and quarterly configuration checks.

WAF Rule Implementation

Curated rule sets configured for your WordPress stack, not recycled defaults.

CDN Cache Configuration

Caching rules mapped to your content types, assets, and URL structure.

Rate Limiting

Throttles high-volume automated requests before they reach your application layer.

Bot Rule Controls

Blocks known scrapers, scanners, and credential stuffing bots at the edge.

Security Header Review

HSTS, X-Frame-Options, Content-Security-Policy, and referrer policy verified and enforced.

Impact Validation

Before/after comparison confirms protections are active and performance is improved.

Stop Wondering If Your WAF Is Actually Working

A WAF that’s installed but not configured is security theater. We set it up right, validate it works, and give you documentation to prove it. Pair it with our security hardening service for a complete baseline.
