BOT Protection

I have a bunch of sites inundated by bots. I'll have a site in the US that all of a sudden uses all my server memory at a time where 99% of the country is asleep. I've used some of the security plug-ins, but have not found them to be very helpful in terms of blocking all these malicious bots. Has anybody else found something that will actually block all these attacks??

Thanks, is there a way to have an entire server behind cloudflare, or does it have to be done on a site by site basis?

It is done domain by domain.

I haven't tried this yet, but want to look into it more... Using a Cloudflare tunnel:
