PREVENT LARGE-SCALE FRAUD FROM AUTOMATED BOT ATTACKS
Protect your online applications from automated bot attacks wielding advanced threats like credential stuffing, unwanted scraping, carding and automation traffic to penetrate your defenses.
F5 Silverline Shape Defense, an F5 Silverline managed security service, prevents bot attacks that can result in large-scale fraud, inflated operational costs, and friction for your end users.
By delivering continuous protection to your enterprise, even when attackers retool, the service ensures protection from sophisticated online attacks, including the list of OWASP Automated
Threats to Web Applications. As shown in Figure 1, the service detects bot threats within encrypted traffic so you can filter out unwanted automated programs, traffic, and tools and get better business intelligence.
