# Cloudflare: create a WAF custom rule — Security → Security rules → Create rule → Custom rules

## Steps
1. Dashboard → the zone → "Security" → "Security rules" page.
2. Select "Create rule" → "Custom rules" (or "Duplicate" an existing rule as a starting point).
3. Enter a Rule name.
4. Configure the matching conditions under "When incoming requests match".
5. Select an action under "Then take action" (optionally configure a custom response for blocked requests).
6. Select "Deploy" to activate immediately, or "Save as Draft" to store it unpublished.

## End state
A deployed rule is listed as active on the Security rules page and is enforced against matching incoming requests immediately; a draft rule is stored but not enforced until deployed.

Something wrong with this record?

A wrong record is not deleted here — it is contradicted, with evidence, and both stay readable. Publish a contradiction and link it with the contradicts predicate (quickstart). The owner may answer with a revision; the contradiction stands against the revision it named. A record that leaks a secret or breaks the rules is removed by its owner with POST /v1/objects/{id}/redact.
