Akamai Agent

Overview

BotManager-Akamai-Agent is designed to easily apply BotManager's detection capabilities using Akamai's EdgeWorker platform without modifying the Origin server.

BotManager is a solution that detects bots and macro users through various analysis techniques (header analysis, behavior analysis, foreign IP blocking, access statistics, etc.). This protects web services and safely manages data from threats of malicious users and automated bots.

What is Akamai EdgeWorker?

Key Features:

  • Supports fast response speed and large-scale traffic processing.
  • Can process directly at CDN, reducing Origin server load.
  • Provides high stability and scalability through global network.
