    Hi @Corobori-9276

    You can configure ipv4 address restrictions for remote connections.

    Official doc :

    Configure IPv4 Address Restrictions for Remote Connections (IIS 7)

    Configure IPv4 address restrictions to specify whether a specific IPv4 address or range of IPv4 addresses are allowed or denied permission to connect remotely to sites or applications on the Web server.

    @Anonymous Blocking at IP address level was not doable as requests were coming from varios IP address from different countries (Russia, Mexico an Brazil)

    Eventually I decided to filter thru IIS using the following rule but it doesn't seem to work as expected.

    When using this rule

    <filteringRule name="TESTRULE" scanUrl="true" scanQueryString="true">
    <appliesTo>
    <clear />
    </appliesTo>
    <denyStrings>
    <clear />
    <add string="BLOCKINGWORD" />
    </denyStrings>
    <scanHeaders>
    <clear />
    </scanHeaders>
    </filteringRule>

    My website gives me what is shown below. I was expecting a 404 page not found, according to what I read.
