Distil Networks is the first easy and accurate way to identify and police malicious website traffic, blocking 99.9% of bad bots without impacting legitimate users.

Bots are the key culprits behind web scraping, online fraud, web application security breaches, content spam, digital ad fraud, and downtime.
