F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defense detects and mitigates automated bot attacks against web, mobile apps, and APIs. The F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defense Service Node running in an Azure VM is the core detection engine. The Distributed Cloud Bot Defense Service Node needs to be integrated into the enterprise's network and connected to the Distributed Cloud Bot Defense backend to enable the service. Once you start the F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defense Service Node on an Azure machine, please contact an F5 representative (ShapeSalesLeaders@f5.com) to proceed with the provisioning of the service.
