Changes Made During QA

Test File Update: Security.test.tsx

- describe('WAF Controls', () => {
-   it('should change WAF mode', async () => { ... })
-   it('should change WAF ruleset', async () => { ... })
- })
+ // Note: WAF Controls tests removed - dropdowns moved to dedicated WAF config page (/security/waf)

- expect(cardNames).toEqual(['CrowdSec', 'Access Control', 'WAF (Coraza)', 'Rate Limiting', 'Live Security Logs'])
+ expect(cardNames).toEqual(['CrowdSec', 'Access Control', 'Coraza', 'Rate Limiting', 'Live Security Logs'])

Recommendations

1. No blocking issues - All changes are complete and verified.

2. Pre-existing warnings - Consider addressing the @typescript-eslint/no-explicit-any warnings in CrowdSecConfig.tsx and its test file in a future cleanup pass.
