Proxy Mitigations

Understanding Mitigations

Mitigations enable you to take specific actions when a Proxy Rule is triggered. Add a New Mitigation by clicking "Mitigate" in the top right portion of a Proxy Rule's management interface.

Mitigations are executed during the "Detect & Mitigate" phase of your Proxy Stack.
