THE PROBLEM — Bad Bot Traffic Is A Growing Problem Across The Web

At least 36% of web traffic in 2020 was generated by bots, half of which are harmful to websites. Bots are increasingly being used for data theft and commercial manipulation. Cybercrime and acts of unfair competition are gradually becoming commonplace in online business.

What Damage Do Bad Bots Do To Businesses?

  • Excessive traffic and server load
  • Data theft
  • Inventory depletion
  • Advertising abuse
  • Credit card fraud
  • Dynamic price hacking
  • Fake ratings and feedback

  • Why Traditional Bot-blocking Tools Are Not Enough

    Popular WAFs fail to distinguish between legitimate users and new-gen bots. Bots are rapidly evolving and using sophisticated human-mimicking techniques. Most main-stream solutions aren't effective against new-generation attack tools and advanced bot software.

    All Standard Firewall Solutions Fall Short

    The human-like interactions of modern bots require a high level of intelligence and contextual analysis to distinguish them from real users, which no firewall solution can provide.

    CAPTCHAs Only Annoy And Discriminate Against Legitimate Users

    CAPTCHAS aren't designed with everyone in mind and can leave users with disabilities feeling left-out. Advanced bots can already solve captcha with 99.8% accuracy, which is better than humans.
