Hi there. I'm an Australian server security expert and I have extensive knowledge of cloudflare. I would love to help you. Thanks

Hi there, I manage a web agency where we work a lot with tasks just like this one. I started a web and marketing agency recently and I'm working here as a freelancer to land my first few clients. I also work at "FS Data", a big hosting company in Sweden, as a Linux System Administrator, as well as support for our Web Hosting, VPS & Dedicated Server clients as well as with SEO & SEM at our marketing firm, "Intendit". Send me a message please, I really do wish to make a great impression. Ask me about my experience, I've worked with this for many years and I also speak and write in English natively.

Basically, one approach we can use to solve this problem quickly is to do whitelisting. We have list of trusted user-agents (All known web browser user agent, and your list of trusted user-agents). I propose that you need to alter your application and put a logic that checks the submitted useragent. If the useragent is not whitelisted, we will put it on your blacklist. Your blacklist would be the cloudflare. We can utilize CloudFlare API to do the blacklisting. But take note that CloudFlare only offers 10 useragent that we can block. So you might need to do the blocking in the main application as well. I suppose that the intention for this is to prevent bad bots from getting vital data from your site. We can also utilize your webserver itself, to allow only a pattern of useragents, and block the unauthorized entity who uses useragents that are not whitelisted. That's a lot quicker, but it'll not alter cloudflare rules, but I think it shall do the purpose that what you have in mind now. After reading this, you yourself might do this and immediately end this project, or probably you might need my help to do this for you, then let's discuss and see if we could make an agreement... Bid price will depend on what solution that we are going to be agreed upon, same with delivery date. If I'm going to write code and call an API, that's more expensive. If we'll just utilize nginx/apache (if you use them as your webserver/proxy), then I'll adjust my bid to a lower price. Cheers!

Hi There are different options, including blocking useragent as you suggest. We can block unwanted bots using Cloudflare or the endpoint servers. We can find the solution which works best for you. Thanks
