What is Bot Mitigation?
Bot mitigation is the practice of detecting automated traffic and deciding what to do with it: block it, challenge it, slow it down, or feed it decoy data.
How it works
Detection layers signals from the network edge, the browser, and behavior over time. Good systems score traffic instead of making one-shot block decisions.
Why it matters for e-commerce
Without mitigation, bots set your costs, skew your data, and decide who gets your inventory. For your store, that means inventory and ad spend stay protected and shoppers get a fair experience.
How BotBulwark detects it
BotBulwark scores every request against behavioral, network, and device signals, so automated patterns surface even when they imitate real shoppers. Suspicious sessions get challenged or blocked before they reach your store.
