HUMAN published a research into security leaders' perceptions of and responses to sophisticated bot attacks.

90% of respondents view bot management as a top-five cybersecurity priority.

86% of respondents believe most bots are capable of circumventing simple bot mitigation features.

"As organizations have shifted to more online-focused business operations, a trend further accelerated by the pandemic, attackers have doubled down on their efforts and increased the frequency of bot-driven fraud and logic abuse," said John Grady, Senior Analyst at ESG. "This new research explores how application security leaders perceive the threat of bot attacks and what their plans are for combatting them."

The report reveals additional valuable insights, including application security leaders' perceptions of bot mitigation features within cybersecurity platforms, awareness of the capabilities of sophisticated bots, and organizational planning around bot mitigation investment in the next twelve months.
