A practical method to analyze an Azure WAF block, isolate the rule involved, compare application evidence, and decide between a fix, a targeted exclusion, or a custom rule.
Move from a qualified WAF block to a targeted OWASP/CRS exclusion in an Azure Application Gateway policy, with scope, variable, rule, validation and rollback.
A KQL analysis method to qualify an Azure WAF block, distinguish attack, noise and application false positive, then document the decision before any exclusion.
Build useful KQL queries to identify requests blocked by Azure Web Application Firewall on Application Gateway, with action, ruleId, URI, client IP, hostname and time window.
A diagnostic method for Azure Application Gateway 502 errors that separates DNS resolution, probes, backend settings, TLS, hostnames, certificates and real application behavior.
