Bot Attack trends for Jan-Jul 2020

Bot traffic makes up almost 40% of total internet traffic and is a significant concern for businesses and organizations. Cloudflare offers comprehensive Bot Management tools to help mitigate this issue, analyzing global bot trends due to the vast amount of traffic that flows through its network each day. The company groups traffic into four categories: verified bots, definitely automated, likely automated, and likely human. By assigning a "bot score" to each request, Cloudflare helps customers manage and control various types of automated traffic effectively. In the first half of 2020, web traffic increased by around 35% due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, with some bots taking advantage of this surge in activity. North America, Europe, and Asia were the primary sources of both overall and automated traffic. The United States alone accounted for the majority of requests, over half of which come from automated sources. Understanding bot behavior is crucial for businesses to protect their networks and maintain a positive user experience. Cloudflare's Bot Management tools provide valuable insights into global bot trends and help organizations manage and mitigate the impact of bots on their websites and applications.
