Set ADR rule modes
Use this procedure to set the modes for an Application, Detection, and Response (ADR) rule for a selected incident.
Before you begin
You need a role with the Incident administration action.
Steps
From the left navigation, select Incidents.
Select an incident
In the Containment actions section, select Configure ADR rules.
The ADR rules panel shows this information:
Rule: The name of the rule associated with the incident
Description: A description of the rule
The current modes for the Development, QA, and Production environments:
Off: This mode disables the rule.
Block at perimeter: The agent blocks a possible attack before the application can process it. This option is not available for all rules.
Monitor: The agent identifies and reports attacks.
Block: The agent identifies, reports and blocks attacks.
Important
If an attack matches a rule and the mode for that rule is set to Block, the Java, .NET Framework, and .NET Core agents throw an
AttackBlockedException
.To ensure the application doesn't crash, edit the application to handle the
AttackBlockedException
.
In the ADR rules panel, select a mode from the dropdown for any or all of the environments.
Select Submit.
