Bot activity is rising.
Malicious bots can cause high resource use, downtime, data theft, fraud, and more. Protecting against harmful crawlers, scrapers, vulnerability scanners, and botnets without blocking legitimate (welcomed) bots or humans is challenging.
Bot or human?
Nearly 50% of today's internet traffic comes from automated bots — two-thirds of them being harmful.
Identifying prime targets
Specifically, AI bots accessed 39% of the web's top one million websites by mid-2024.
Bots rise, revenue falls
Businesses lose $85.6 million annually to bot attacks and remediation — nearly 50x more than ransomware attacks.
