Use cases
A customer's site is drowning in scraping bots or an application-layer bot flood; they want the bots cut without touching real visitors.
Workflow
- Select the account and open Protection → Security.
- On the Bot Protection card pick "Risky visitors" (recommended).
- Enable "Everyone" only during an attack, temporarily, confirming the warning dialog.
- Watch the pass rate in the verification statistics: near 0% means what was cut were bots.
Checks
- A mode change reaches the edges automatically within minutes; no separate Apply Changes needed.
- Verified search engines (Google, Bing, Yandex, Apple) are never blocked in any mode.
- "Everyone" also cuts the customer's own API and mobile clients — never leave it on permanently.
