    How can On-premise WAF be protected from Slow HTTPs attacks? Built-in policy does not help

    Hi Andrei,

    The policy should block slow http attack - as you can see the attack would be blocked after a specific amount of connections simultaneously attacking the server.
    I suggest to set it to 1 for tests , if this won't help it is better to involve Imperva customer support.
