Identify and block malicious bots, including headless browsers, impersonators, and scrapers, without affecting legitimate automation or user experience.
Bunny Shield identifies automated traffic using behavioral fingerprinting, header anomalies, and IP reputation. Detection rules and sensitivity profiles propagate across the edge within seconds, so policy changes take effect in near real time.
Behavioral Fingerprinting: Distinguish real users from automated traffic using fingerprinting, header anomaly detection, and request behavior modeling.
Real-Time Response: Detection logic and mitigation rules propagate across the edge within seconds, so policy changes take effect almost immediately.
Customizable Rules: Set detection conditions based on HTTP headers, IP reputation, user-agent anomalies, cookie presence, request frequency, and other signals.
False Positive Resistant: Allow-listing, ASN validation, and crawl integrity filters keep legitimate crawlers and automation from being blocked.
Request integrity looks for anomalies in headers, protocol usage, and request structure.
IP address scores requests based on IP reputation, behavior, and known rate patterns.
Fingerprint sensitivity determines how assertively Bunny Shield should treat unusual browser fingerprints as bots.
Complex fingerprinting (Business or above) combines advanced entropy analysis and cross-session consistency.
These options let you tailor detection to match your traffic profile and risk tolerance. And with Edge Rules, you can disable bot detection dynamically based on headers, cookies, IP addresses, or specific endpoints, giving you full control over when and where protection applies.
Bot detection isn’t a black box. Bunny Shield shows you exactly what it’s seeing and doing, in real time:
Logged requests: Number of requests identified as bots but not challenged.
Challenged requests: Number of requests that triggered browser validation. We give you the full picture, with clear metrics and event logs that show what’s being flagged and how it’s being handled. No guesswork required.
You can utilize the Bunny Shield API to automate Bot detection configurations or integrate them into your continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. This capability allows you to manage your security settings efficiently and consistently across different environments.
