Myra Bot Management helps organizations protect their websites, web applications, and APIs against unauthorized access and malicious automated traffic, including credential stuffing, web scraping, click fraud, form spam, account takeover, inventory hoarding, and analytics skewing.
Autonomously operating bots account for approximately half of all website traffic, with around 20 percent considered potentially dangerous. Malicious bots scan web platforms for exploitable vulnerabilities, copy content, block shopping carts, and attempt to compromise user accounts. Standard security measures struggle to detect these threats because bots spoof browser information, vary IP addresses, and distribute requests to mask their automated nature. Myra Bot Management addresses this by generating a unique fingerprint for every requesting bot from more than 50 access attributes – independently of IP address, ASN, or User Agent – enabling reliable identification and precise traffic control.
The solution requires no additional hardware or software and integrates seamlessly into existing infrastructure as part of the broader Myra Application Security suite. It is designed for organizations in regulated industries such as finance, e-commerce, healthcare, and public sector that require GDPR-compliant, certified bot protection with full data sovereignty.
Key features and capabilities include:
- Passive Fingerprinting: Each time a website is accessed, Myra generates a fingerprint from over 50 attributes to uniquely identify the software used. Once identified, a bot is immediately recognized on every subsequent visit, regardless of IP changes or spoofed headers.
- Behavioral Analytics: Myra automatically identifies unusual request patterns through behavioral analysis, detecting threats that evade signature-based approaches.
- Automation Tool Detection: The solution reliably identifies common automation frameworks such as Selenium and PhantomJS, blocking automated attacks at the source.
- Flexible Traffic Controls: Each incoming request receives an appropriate response – Block, CAPTCHA, Log, Allow, Browser Challenge, or Human Interaction Challenge – enabling granular control without impacting legitimate users or search engine bots.
- Alternate Origin Routing: If necessary, Myra can redirect suspicious requests to alternative origin servers to protect the main infrastructure from overload or targeted abuse.
