Slow POST protection

Enables or disables slow POST protection for a security configuration and security policy. Slow POST protections help defend a site against attacks that try to tie up the site by using extremely slow requests and responses.

Scopes: Security policy

Example

terraform {
  required_providers {
    akamai = {
      source = "akamai/akamai"
    }
  }
}

provider "akamai" {
  edgerc = "~/.edgerc"
}

// USE CASE: User wants to enable or disable slow post protections.

data "akamai_appsec_configuration" "configuration" {
  name = "Documentation"
}

resource "akamai_appsec_slowpost_protection" "protection" {
  config_id          = data.akamai_appsec_configuration.configuration.config_id
  security_policy_id = "gms1_134637"
  enabled            = true
}
