The goal of keeping your site secure is a crucial one, particularly with the increased competition from both human and non-human entities.
These are frequently referred to as bots by developers, who prefer to use the shorter form. As the name suggests, these automated software programs that simulate human behavior have been around since the early days of the internet.
They may be used to automate repetitive tasks or mimic human behavior, like filling out forms or clicking on a website.
Google and other search engines use bots to scan websites and gather information that will help them index them in search engine results. Spammers and other nefarious actors may also utilize bots to spread harmful content and malware.
How do you stop malicious bots?
Detecting and preventing malicious bots has long been a challenge for website admins. However, the new Bot Detector API features can assist in resolving this problem.
The new Bot Detector API is designed to quickly identify bots and prevent them from accessing your website or application. This could be useful for websites that want to monitor traffic or block automated requests from specific IP addresses.
How does the new Bot Detector API work?
The new Bot Detector API works by analyzing user agent strings. This means it can detect whether a user is a bot or not based on the information provided in their user agent string. If the user agent string indicates that the user is a bot, then the Bot Detector will return true. Otherwise, it will return false
The new Bot Detector API is simple to use, as well as highly effective. To use it, simply pass the URL you wish to monitor to the API; it will then provide you with information about any bots that it detects there.
Additionally, because it allows you to create filters based on this information, this simple yet effective tool can be used to block any bots that are discovered.
