F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defense vs. HAProxy

Bot attacks are difficult to stop—criminals retool to bypass defenses, rapidly solving CAPTCHAs and mimicking human behavior. To stay ahead of bots, F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defense (Formerly Shape Security) uses AI to achieve long-term efficacy and zero customer friction. The solution helps to achieve effective bot protection based on analysis of devices and behavioral signals that unmask automation. This gives users the advantage of a network effect as the platform adapts to retooling attempts across thousands of the world’s most highly trafficked apps.

HAProxy is an open-source software load balancer and reverse proxy for TCP, QUIC, and HTTP-based applications. It provides high availability, load balancing, and best-in-class SSL processing. HAProxy One is an application delivery and security platform that combines the HAProxy core with enterprise-grade security layers, management and orchestration, cloud-native integration, and more.
