I wish to set up security for my API Node Server arround DDoS
I found an article on your site https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200172676-Understanding-Cloudflare-DDoS-protection which is useful.
I’m a newbie to CF wondering if a video is available that demonstrates how a DDoS attack is handled and alerted.
