Robust bot management is more important than ever in today’s ever-changing threat landscape. In 2024, automated bot traffic surpassed human-generated internet traffic for the first time in over a decade, accounting for 51% of all web activity. The threat landscape is constantly evolving – and so defenses must regularly evolve to keep pace. We provide an overview of the current situation and what you should pay particular attention to.

Mobile API endpoints can be difficult to defend against attackers. Many traditional web security technologies are based on browser verification, which is designed to detect the headless browsers and emulators that threat actors typically use. However, with mobile apps, there is no browser to verify. This can lead to serious security problems that need to be dealt with in a focused manner. We explain how our own WAAP solution cleverly and easily closes this gap.

The „Web Application API Protection Buyer’s Guide 2025“ outlines best practices for thoroughly evaluating your web application protection options. This guide helps you select a suitable solution that provides a holistic approach to securing your web applications while adapting flexibly to your business needs and emerging threats. Additionally, the document includes an overview of essential requirements and targeted questions to ask potential security vendors during your evaluation process.

Almost all modern web attacks include the use of bots to interact with the targeted domain. Without a reliable method for identifying and excluding bots, your site will be vulnerable to pen tests (leading to intrusions and breaches), defacements, DoS/DDoS attacks, content scraping, fuzzing, brute force login attempts, and many other forms of attack.

Reblaze (now part of Link11) uses visitor behavior, challenges, and honeypots to detect even advanced bots powered by full-stack browsers such as Webkit, Chromium/V8, and IE-WebBrowserControl that bypass traditional bot detection methods.

For any business that relies on company networks or provides online services, DDoS protection is a must. But what kind of DDoS security solution is right for you? There are several aspects to consider when evaluating a mitigation provider, and IT teams often struggle to decide which one to purchase and how best to integrate it into their IT security architecture. The DDoS Protection Buyer’s Guide can help. It provides a list of requirements to look for and questions to ask a potential DDoS protection vendor when evaluating or purchasing a mitigation solution.

In 2025, cyber security will no longer be a side note, but a business-critical priority.

Our security experts summarize how the threat situation has evolved in recent months and what you can expect in the coming 12 months. As a small spoiler in advance: attacks this year will become even more professional, as the focus on AI-based attack variants will continue to increase – without suitable defenses, the risk will continue to rise.

The year 2024 was characterized by a large number of record-breaking attacks and threats that presented companies with major challenges. And 2025 will continue to be the focus of ever-evolving cyberattacks. What trends can we expect in 2025? How can we best prepare for them? And above all: what role will artificial intelligence (AI) play for both attackers and defense? Find out here which topics will be particularly in focus and, above all, how you can best prepare for them.

Strauss Group is an international Food & Beverage company with multiple businesses and dozens of brands, operating in over 20 countries across five continents. With such a diversity of businesses, web security is an important consideration.

“We wanted a one-stop shop, where we make one call, and they do everything for us. Whether it’s an issue with the firewall, or the storage, or CDN, or DNS, or whatever. We wanted one provider who would do everything”, said Shay Penini, Strauss Group’s Digital and Cyber Project Manager.

Strauss Group heard about Link11 through a reseller and was impressed by their WAAP capabilities. To this day, they have not regretted the change: “Those attacks still occur, but they don’t get through. We recently had one on a site that normally uses two or three servers, and it grew to 100 servers to absorb the attack. We didn’t experience any interruptions. Everything works as it should.”
