Incapsula Rate Limit Per Second

Question

I'm looking at the rate limiting on Incapsula, which limits requests etc. based on per minute.

Rate >= {api-rate;4}

Is there a way to rate limit based on per second? So if an ip exceeds 1 request per second, then block it.

Cheers

Answer 1

The rate is in sliding window of 1 minute calculated every second, therefore you ca use: Rate >= {api-rate;60}
