Hello,

As a file host, how are we able to detect proxy traffic? We already have cloudflare. Is it a setting on cloudflare?

Thanks!
 
yes, but you can also use some more advanced tools that will provide real-time detection of proxies, VPNs, and anonymous IP addresses.

Like what? And what is the setting on cloudflare?
THANKS
 
I believe cloudflare block abused proxies/ips by default. In addition you can enable bot fight mode (or whatever it's called). There is also many public databases that report abused ips and bot behavior. But for a legit person using a clean proxy there is nothing you can do about.

Like what? Was trying to use a "Managed Challenge" with cloudflare, but it doesn't work through iframe embeds, which is where most of the traffic comes from

Cloudflare offers some tools to help detect proxies and suspicious traffic, such as bot management and IP reputation checks. You can enable security features like "Bot Fight Mode" or use firewall rules to filter traffic based on IP reputation. However, detecting all proxy traffic can be challenging, so combining Cloudflare’s tools with other security measures might improve detection. For more details, it’s best to check Cloudflare’s documentation or contact their support for guidance.
