How do I select a bot protection solution for my business?
2021-03-29 05:00

To select a suitable bot protection solution for your business, you need to think about a variety of factors.

A successful bot mitigation solution has to be effective immediately, stopping new bots and never seen before attack methods.

In the fight against malicious bots, we're dealing with enemies that are experts on automation, and many bot providers still believe the best solution is human monitoring.

One needs to also make sure that they solution they purchase covers all their application types - if they have web, mobile and API applications, the bot mitigation solution should be able to handle attacks against all these application types.

Bot protection needs to include device fingerprinting, to track bot activity across IP addresses, as well as the ability to detect browser automation tools like Selenium and PhantomJS. These tools are hard to identify and block as they process JavaScript and run on a browser like a real human.

Lastly, a good bot protection solution should contribute to freeing up capacity for legit users and that is too dependent on the use of AI to some extent, allowing you to spend your money where it makes the most sense to your business.
