Browser bot detection guide

BrowserScan detects automated activities on scripts or browsers. It analyzes various browser properties to determine whether the browser environment is controlled by a robot. Various human-machine verification products such as Cloudflare Turnstile and Google reCAPTCHA include this aspect of detection, which is usually divided into three categories:

  • Normal bots - usually bots belonging to well-known search engines (Google, Bing, Baidu). It crawls websites to create a searchable index of content. A good bot can also be a monitoring or uptime checking tool.
  • Malicious bots - Usually automated tools like Selenium, Puppeteer, Playwright or anything that pretends to be a good search bot. It can take over accounts, submit spam, steal passwords, scrape data, waste resources, and more.
  • No bots detected - the visitor could be a human using a regular browser.

Identification and bot detection

The combination of fingerprinting and bot detection gives you a powerful tool to protect against online fraud and produces the best results when used together.
