Bot Mitigation

Stop bad bots, not your customers

Cloudflare Bot Management uses machine learning and behavioral analysis across our global network to automatically detect and stop malicious bot traffic before it hits your application.

Smarter Detection through Network Scale

Our ML models are trained on the traffic of a huge portion of the Internet. We see novel attacks first and deploy protection for everyone instantly, a data advantage no competitor can match.

Frictionless User Experience

We offer Cloudflare Turnstile, a free, privacy-preserving, and user-friendly alternative to CAPTCHA that developers and users actually prefer.

Integrated Performance

Built into the Cloudflare stack, not a separate product. Mitigation happens at the edge, nanoseconds from the user, ensuring we stop bots without adding latency for humans.

Bot detection at global scale

Bot Management stops automated abuse that wastes application resources, skews analytics, compromises user accounts, and forces developers to build and maintain brittle, custom security logic instead of shipping features. It frees developers from the constant cat-and-mouse game of fighting bots, allowing them to trust their traffic, protect their services, and focus on building great products for real users.
