Overview
F5's Managed Rules for AWS WAF offer an additional layer of protection that can be easily applied to your AWS WAF. F5's Bot Protection rules analyze all incoming requests and block any malicious bot activities identified, including DDoS tools, vulnerability scanners, web scrapers, and forum spam tools. All rules are written, managed and regularly updated by F5's security specialists to ensure protection against evolving threats without the need for intervention on your part. The rules are licensed on a pay-as-you-go basis so you will only pay for what you use. Deployment guidance can be found at https://pages.awscloud.com/rs/112-TZM-766/images/F5_OWASP_Getting%20Started%20Guide.pdf .
Alternatively, if you require more sophisticated protection then F5's Advanced WAF or Shape Enterprise Defense may be more appropriate solutions.

Customer reviews
doesn't catch bots
Doesn't react to bots trying account passwords. Although the behavior of bots is clearly different from the normal behavior of users.
Also, suggested to block the internal service.
Generally, doesn't catch mice, bites, eats cutlets.
Does not work
This product is absolute bunk. It blocks virtually nothing, terrible documentation and no support.
You would do a lot better to use the default Amazon template.
