How to combat Slow Loris attack on apache webserver

after watching this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiFkyR35v2Y

has apache implemented any defense against this kind of attack? I am running virtualmin on an apache webserver with live websites on it...should i change to nginx?

Is there a workaround or fix for apache for this?

I see two options mentioned in cpanel docs...ModReqtimeout and ModQoS. Do these work successfully? Do i need to install them myself or has the virtualmin installer already got this added?
