WAF Configuration for Your Business
WAF configuration services set up your web application firewall so it blocks bots, credential stuffing and known exploits without turning away real customers. Omeiro configures core rules, writes custom rules and adds bot protection and rate limits on Cloudflare or AWS WAF.

WAF configuration decisions that shape scope and false positives
Scope on a WAF job depends on how many sites you run and how different their traffic is. A shop with a login page and checkout needs other rules than a brochure site, so waf configuration starts with a list of the endpoints that matter: login, password reset, search, API paths and admin panels. Bring your DNS provider details and a list of third-party services that call your site. Payment and CRM webhooks are the usual victims of rules written without that list.
A common mistake is switching every managed rule to block on day one. Real visitors get challenged, and teams respond by disabling rules entirely. Where the platform allows it we start new rules in log or count mode, read what they would have caught, and only then enforce. Good waf configuration leaves you with documented rules, named exceptions and a reason behind each one, so the next engineer can change the setup without guessing.
In short
- Delivery in 2 to 7 days, by package.
- Fixed price, shown before you order.
- Sites hit by scrapers or login attacks.
- Teams that turned on a WAF and left default rules in place.
- Copyright yours after full payment.
WAF Configuration: common questions
How much does WAF configuration cost?
Prices are fixed and shown by package on our WAF Configuration pricing page, so you see the full price before you order. You can also ask for a custom quote.
How long does AWS WAF tuning take?
Delivery depends on the package: Basic 2-day delivery; Standard 4-day delivery; Premium 7-day delivery.
What is included in the Basic Package?
The Basic Package includes: WAF set up for 1 site (Cloudflare or AWS) with core rules. Higher packages add more scope, revisions and support.
Can I get a custom Cloudflare WAF hardening package?
Yes. If none of the packages fits, use the custom package form on our pricing page to describe what you need, and our team sends you a fixed price.
Can a WAF stop every attack?
No. It reduces common attacks and works best with other controls.
Will it block real users?
Tuning aims to avoid that, and Premium includes 30 days of tuning.
Cloudflare or AWS WAF?
Both are supported.
Does it stop bots?
Standard adds bot protection.
How do I tell if my WAF rules are causing false positives?
Look for blocked requests from known customers, failed webhooks and spikes in support tickets after a rule change. We review the WAF logs for matches on legitimate paths and add targeted exceptions rather than turning whole rulesets off.
