Bot Defense

Defend against malicious bots

Bots make the Internet work—from search engine crawlers that bring the world to your fingertips to chatbots that engage and influence your customers early in the buyer’s journey. 

These are good bots. But there can be malicious bots. These bad bots scale automated attacks that cause significant financial pain, slow web and app performance, scalp goods, and hoard inventory. 

Malicious bots not only lead to customer frustration, but they also imitate gift cards to steal balances, create fake accounts to commit fraud, and carry out account takeovers via credential stuffing.
