Configuring Client Profile

For any Barracuda Web Application Firewall service, the client profile can be enabled only when Enable Client Profile Validation is set to Yes. This means that the request must be validated against the configured client’s fingerprint of that service. The details of each client’s risk score are recorded as logs and are available in the BASIC > Access Logs page.
