Shield Feature -

Fake Web Crawler Detection

Block visitors pretending to be trusted crawlers. Shield helps identify bots that use a trusted crawler name while behaving badly.

Included from Pro Protect Detect

Fake Web Crawler Detection is included from Pro.

What it does

Attackers and scrapers may pretend to be search engines or other useful crawlers to avoid simple checks.

This feature helps separate real crawlers from imposters, reducing unwanted scanning and scraping.

Setup

Use Shield defaults, then review traffic logs if a crawler should be allowed or blocked.
