I'm using Apache Tomcat 7 to run my webapp on Linux. I scanned it by Acunetix and it's telling me that my webapp is vulnerable to "Slow HTTP Denial of Service Attack". How can I protect it?

Acunetix is reffering me to here, but it's about securing Apache, not Tomcat.

Tomcat Security Team understands that this isn't a tomcat issue. See here.

You can fix it by configuring a firewall (an example with iptables is discussed here) or putting an Apache HTTP server in front off the tomcat server and configure it as described here.
