Maintain performance
Moving bot mitigation to the edge allows for comprehensive protection while leveraging scalable infrastructure to maintain exceptional performance during the largest of threat campaigns. Sensors are run in the background in asynchronous, non-blocking mode and cached on our CDN maintain performance and efficacy. Evaluating client requests at the edge only adds a few milliseconds; other bot detection solutions must return to origin to evaluate and score bot traffic, which can add latency as well as increase network and server costs.
