F5 has announced that AWS customers now have access to F5’s high-efficacy, AI-driven bot protection through an easy to deploy connector.
Amazon CloudFront customers now can further protect their apps with one of the most accurate bot detection solutions, with a pre-built integration via connector to F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defence. Using rich signal analysis, AI, and human domain expertise, customers get high-efficacy bot mitigation with industry-leading false positive rates.
“As organisations continue launching major workloads and business processes in an ever-expanding cloud environment, they need security solutions better integrated into their technology stack, and they need mitigations to be more intelligent and automated to protect their growing attack surface,” said Haiyan Song, Executive Vice President, Security and Distributed Cloud, F5. “That is exactly what our Bot Defence service does for AWS customers with this integrated offer.”
F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defence provides critical functionality for CloudFront, preventing Account Takeover (ATO), credential stuffing, inventory hoarding, and gift card cracking, stopping debilitating automated bot attacks while maintaining access for customers and the good bots that help drive their business.
As a result, customers can increase security for their applications without adding friction. In addition, they can limit the fraud and abuse that results when fake accounts are created, or existing accounts are used to commit fraud. Not only are customers able to better defend their brand, but they can provide end users with safe, seamless, and secure experiences with improved uptime and app performance.
“At AWS, we are customer-obsessed, therefore it is critical that we provide customers with secure, reliable, performant, and scalable solutions,” said Nishit Sawhney, Director of Product Management for Amazon CloudFront at AWS. “ISVs like F5 provide enhanced security services in areas like bot management that, when combined with Amazon CloudFront, provide our customers a layered security solution.”
