ScrapeShield: The scaled up, deep intelligence anti-scraping service
CloudFlare, a company providing web protection services, launched ScrapeShield, an anti-content scraping app built on its existing services to offer comprehensive anti-scraping and tracking tools. The inspiration for CloudFlare originated from Project Honeypot, an anti-spamming project launched in 2004 by some of the company's founders. ScrapeShield leverages this eight-year foundation of deep web intelligence to provide a robust solution against content scraping and theft. The service also provides insights into how site content is being used, such as through RSS feeds or translations. CloudFlare's enormous scale and continuous growth contribute to the ongoing improvement of its bot and scraper intelligence, making ScrapeShield a powerful and reliable anti-scraping solution.
