Cyber & Bot Intelligence

Know who's hitting your site — human, bot, or threat.

Not all traffic is human. CortIQ identifies bots, detects scraping, surfaces traffic anomalies, and maps suspicious activity — so you always know what's really happening.

Bot Detection & Classification

Automatically identify every bot hitting your site — and know whether it's legitimate or not.

  • Distinguish legitimate crawlers (Googlebot, Bingbot) from scrapers
  • Headless browser detection — Puppeteer, Playwright, Selenium
  • User-agent fingerprinting
  • Visual / Headless / Text-based classification

Traffic Anomaly Alerts

Sudden traffic spikes are often probes or automated attacks. Get alerted before it's a problem.

  • Sudden session volume spikes
  • Abnormal page request rates
  • Bounce rate anomalies
  • Automated attack pattern signals

Content Scraping Detection

Know when automated tools are harvesting your content at scale.

  • High-frequency page crawls from single sources
  • Systematic URL traversal patterns
  • Non-human navigation sequences
  • Session depth & timing anomalies

Honeypot & Canary Traps

Hidden traps that only automated visitors trigger — proof of scraping instead of a guess.

  • Invisible honeypot link (click/focus = bot)
  • Canary pixel: fetched from a server IP = scraper
  • Canary link followed by link-traversal bots
  • IP anonymized, raw user agent never stored

Click-Fraud Detection

Score paid-ad sessions for fraud signals so you know how much ad spend goes to non-human clicks.

  • Paid sessions (cpc, ppc, paid social, display) scored 0–100
  • Confirmed bots, webdriver & headless signals
  • Zero-engagement sessions (< 5 s, one page)
  • Suspicious-hour sessions (01–05 UTC), per campaign

Server-Side Bot Ingestion

A Cloudflare Worker reports crawlers that never execute JavaScript.

  • Cloudflare Worker
  • Same bot registry as the JS tag
  • Training & citation crawlers
  • Scrapers & monitoring bots bucketed separately

Geolocation of Suspicious Traffic

Map where bot traffic and anomalous visits originate — country, region, and city level.

  • Interactive origin map for all traffic
  • Bot vs human split per location
  • Country-level traffic anomalies
  • Drill-down to city level

Behavioral Threat Signals

Behavioral patterns that signal automated abuse — detected automatically.

  • Rage clicks (frustration or automation)
  • Inhuman interaction timing
  • Form spam patterns
  • Repeated identical sessions

Privacy-First Architecture

Security intelligence without compromising visitor privacy — all data is anonymized and EU-hosted.

  • Hashed visitor IDs (no PII)
  • Cookieless tracking mode
  • EU data hosting
  • Built for GDPR, privacy by design

GDPR & Consent

Built-in consent and data-protection tools, no separate CMP required. You make the final legal assessment for your site.

  • Cookie consent management (CMP)
  • Configurable data retention
  • User data deletion requests
  • Google Consent Mode v2 support
