Activating the Anti-Bot Component

Define the prevention and detection settings for the Anti-Bot component. The automatic options are:

• Prevents high confidence bots, detects all - All bots are detected and logged. Anti-Bot only blocks activity when it is almost certain that the activity is malicious (high confidence). This is the default.

• Anti-bot detection is enabled -All bots are detected and logged but not blocked.

• Anti-bot is not active - Client computers are not monitored for bot activity.

The confidence level is how sure Endpoint Security is that activity is malicious. High confidence means that it is almost certain that the activity is malicious. Medium confidence means that it is very likely that the activity is malicious.

In the Blade Activation action, you can manually change the settings for each confidence level.

Select actions for High Confidence, Medium Confidence, and Low Confidence bots:

• Prevent - Blocks bots.

• Detect - Logs information about bots, but does not block them.

• Inactive - Ignores bots (does not prevent or detect them).
