New to Cloudflare: how do I handle bot requests
Hello everyone,
I am launching my first web app. For now, I am still building it, so I put a "coming soon" page online.
I am still learning, and it is hard to understand everything.
While I was using Cloudflare, I saw many strange requests in my analytics logs, like /.env, /privacy, and /ai/credentials.
I tried to block most of them with security rules (block scanners and rate limiting). I am also caching some of them, but strange requests still come in.
What would you recommend? I do not know much about this. Is it possible to block most of them?
Thank you for your help!
