About

Cloudflare Bot Management is a security service that detects and mitigates automated bot traffic while allowing legitimate bots such as search engine crawlers.

It uses machine learning, behavioral analysis, and fingerprinting to score and classify traffic, offers configurable mitigation actions including block and challenge rules, and replaces traditional CAPTCHAs with an in-house alternative, Turnstile.

It also provides dashboards with bot scores, logs, and analytics for up to 30 days, and integrates with the Cloudflare WAF and Workers for custom rule actions.

Yandex Smart Web Security is a cloud-based security service from Yandex Cloud that protects web applications and APIs at the OSI model's application layer (L7) against DDoS attacks, malicious bots, and other web-based threats.

It provides configurable security profiles with machine-learning-driven Smart Protection rules, bot traffic filtering and Yandex SmartCaptcha checks, and a web application firewall for common exploit patterns including OWASP Top-10 threats.
