Bot detection

 

Bot detection

As much as 40% of internet traffic is from non-human sources including automated bots and crawlers. This traffic ranges from legitimate search engine bots and crawlers to nefarious automated programs that may be controlled by hackers, fraudsters, or competitors.

Gaining visibility of this traffic can help your business in many ways:

Reduce infrastructure costs

DeviceAtlas can enable significant savings in IT costs by detecting and identifying bot traffic to your site. In many cases up to 20 - 30% of infrastructure and bandwidth costs can be attributed to bot traffic. Using DeviceAtlas to handle this traffic efficiently can deliver immediate and measurable ROI on your investment.
