A WAF is a security system that monitors and filters web traffic to protect against common web exploits. A Cloudflare mod often integrates with Cloudflare's WAF, allowing you to create custom rules to block malicious requests, prevent SQL injection attacks, and mitigate other web vulnerabilities specific to your Minecraft server.
