## Web Application Firewall Sensitivity

The Umbraco Cloud WAF supports sensitivity configuration, extending the default [WAF](web-application-firewall.md) protection. **Low** sensitivity WAF configuration will block malicious requests with high confidence. **High** sensitivity configuration will block malicious requests with medium confidence, providing stricter filtering. By default, the WAF sensitivity is **off** and only the standard [WAF](web-application-firewall.md) is in place. Customers are encouraged to experiment with the WAF configuration at the beginning of the project and adjust based on the WAF performance.

Managed Challenge gives you the ability to present an automatic captcha to all requests for the project/hostname. The managed challenge will ensure that only human users will be able to access the content on the website. Presenting an automatic managed captcha is useful in cases when a website is under attack, aggressively scraped by bots or in extremely high demand and you'd like to ensure that all of your website's resources are delivering value to the end users.

A managed challenge is a lightweight JavaScript-based page that detects users without user inputs. After successfully passing a challenge, the user will receive a cookie and won't be asked to pass another challenge for 30 minutes anywhere on the project/hostname.

Continent-based managed challenge presents a challenge meant to only pass through the human users requesting the website from selected continents. A continent-based managed challenge is useful when a website's primary users live in a specific continent and you can safely treat any other geographical visitors with a challenge. Presenting a challenge to all automated traffic from continents that the end content isn't meant for easily blocks all malicious automated traffic.
