Akamai
One of the most serious issues with commercial websites is dealing with bots. Even a good bot can slow down or render a website unresponsive. Because not all bots are evil, Akamai Bot Manager allows us to handle the bots that are required and those that are not. It adds an extra degree of security where typical solutions fail.

Security concerns call for the deployment of Akamai Bot Manager. It assists in preventing bots from being unable to target our website and applications. The Akamai lab rejects the request or attack before it reaches my cloud infrastructure or my applications. My application is more secure as a result.
