23+
24+ 3
25+ 00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:11.000
26+ threats. I'll walk you through the interface,

35+ investigate, and manage your security
36+ protections.
37+
38+ 6
39+ 00:00:18.240 --> 00:00:22.800
40+ First, select the domain you would like to
41+ manage your application security on.
42+
43+ 7

45+ Once you have selected a domain,
46+ open up the Application Security dashboard by

48+ 8
49+ 00:00:27.880 --> 00:00:31.240
50+ clicking security on the navigation bar here.
51+

53+ 00:00:31.240 --> 00:00:32.800
54+ Now on the overview page.
55+
56+ 10
57+ 00:00:33.120 --> 00:00:37.600
58+ The Security Overview page gives you a high
59+ level summary of your security posture for
60+
61+ 11
62+ 00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:42.760
63+ this domain. You'll find alerts for
64+ Misconfigurations detected threats and
65+
66+ 12
67+ 00:00:42.760 --> 00:00:46.200
68+ suggested actions on how to improve your
69+ security posture.
70+
71+ 13
72+ 00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:50.640
73+ This is a good place to start and review what
74+ needs attention across your environment.
75+
76+ 14
77+ 00:00:50.680 --> 00:00:56.200
78+ Under analytics, you can analyze security
79+ data across two different views traffic and
80+
81+ 15
82+ 00:00:56.200 --> 00:01:01.360
83+ events. Use this page to understand what kind
84+ of traffic your domain is receiving and how
85+
86+ 16
87+ 00:01:01.400 --> 00:01:05.580
88+ Cloudflare is securing your domain based on
89+ the detection tools that are enabled.
90+
91+ 17
92+ 00:01:06.020 --> 00:01:11.100
93+ This page also serves as a starting point to
94+ identify how you may want to configure your
95+
96+ 18
97+ 00:01:11.100 --> 00:01:15.300
98+ application security settings based on the
99+ patterns of traffic you're receiving.
100+
101+ 19
102+ 00:01:15.340 --> 00:01:19.300
103+ The traffic tab shows data on incoming HTTP
104+ requests to your domain,
105+
106+ 20
107+ 00:01:19.300 --> 00:01:23.220
108+ including ones that have not been affected by
109+ any security tools.
110+
111+ 21
112+ 00:01:23.260 --> 00:01:27.480
113+ The events tab shows data on security actions
114+ that have been performed by Cloudflare
115+
116+ 22
117+ 00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:29.700
118+ Security tools on incoming requests.
119+
120+ 23
121+ 00:01:29.860 --> 00:01:35.180
122+ Under web assets, you can manage and monitor
123+ the security of various types of web related
124+
125+ 24
126+ 00:01:35.180 --> 00:01:40.860
127+ assets. For example, use the endpoints tab to
128+ get recommendations and insights about your
129+
130+ 25
131+ 00:01:40.860 --> 00:01:45.540
132+ endpoint usage. Use the Schema Validation tab
133+ to protect your origin from invalid API
134+
135+ 26
136+ 00:01:45.540 --> 00:01:47.260
137+ requests and malicious payloads.
138+
139+ 27
140+ 00:01:47.500 --> 00:01:52.100
141+ Schema validation works by validating
142+ requests against your own API schema.
143+
144+ 28
145+ 00:01:52.140 --> 00:01:56.540

151+ connections, and cookies that are running on
152+ your visitor's web browsers for your domain.
153+
154+ 30
155+ 00:02:01.380 --> 00:02:05.090
156+ If you notice unexpected scripts or
157+ connections on the dashboard.
158+
159+ 31
160+ 00:02:05.130 --> 00:02:07.730
161+ Check them here for signs of malicious
162+ activity.

166+ Security rules is where you manage and define
167+ what security actions are.
168+

180+ rules to secure your domain.
181+

183+ 00:02:18.810 --> 00:02:23.650
184+ You can create your own custom security rules
185+ from scratch or use predefined templates to
186+
187+ 37

189+ help you get started. Under the DDoS
190+ protection tab,
191+

199+ The DDoS Attack Protection rule sets are
200+ automatically managed and updated by
201+
202+ 40
203+ 00:02:35.050 --> 00:02:39.650
204+ Cloudflare, so you only need to use this tab
205+ if you want to create an override rule that
206+
207+ 41
208+ 00:02:39.650 --> 00:02:42.410

220+ tools are categorized by the type of threat
221+
