VerifiedWeb application and API security with botnet mitigation

A FortiWeb administrator needs to stop coordinated scraping traffic originating from several IP addresses, with each making only a few requests so that thresholds do not trigger.

Explanation

FortiWeb Bot Mitigation can detect automated clients through behavioral analysis and biometric-based detection. Its fingerprint recognition evaluates browser and client characteristics, while JavaScript-collected client events and traits help distinguish bots from human users; this remains effective when individual IP addresses do not generate enough requests to exceed a volume threshold.
