Selected Answer: B
WS WAF (Web Application Firewall) allows you to create rate-based rules that can limit the number of requests from a specific IP address. This way, you can control the traffic without completely blocking the IP address, ensuring that legitimate traffic is still allowed through at a controlled rate.
