Introducing Bot Analytics

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has released a tool called Bot Analytics to help visualize automated traffic on websites. The platform is part of their Bot Management service, which detects and blocks unwanted bots while allowing good ones. Bot Analytics provides insights into the types of bots reaching a website, including verified good bots and varying degrees of bot/human likelihood. It also allows users to set thresholds for suspicious traffic and filter or exclude request attributes such as IP addresses, user agents, and ASNs. The tool is available to all Enterprise customers and can help identify potential bot attacks on websites.
