how convert htaccess deny rule to IIS url rewrite rule

Question

I am converting .htaccess file to rewrite rules in IIS to convert from http to https, all the rules are being converted which starts with RewriteCond but deny from all is not converted

I want to convert this htaccess rule to IIS rewrite rule

<Files ~ "\.log$">
Deny from all
</Files>

Is there any other way to convert it? or I doing something wrong.

to convert this rule you could use the request filtering feature of iis or URL rewrite.

<configuration>
        <security>
            <requestFiltering>
                <fileExtensions>
                    <add fileExtension=".log" allowed="false" />
                </fileExtensions>
            </requestFiltering>
        </security>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>

using url rewrite rule:

<rule name="Protect files and directories from prying eyes" stopProcessing="true"> 
    <match url="\.log$" /> 
    <action type="CustomResponse" statusCode="403" subStatusCode="0" statusReason="Forbidden" statusDescription="Access is forbidden." /> 
</rule>
