“Fighting scrapers and hackers is a cold war so we need to be able to leverage accurate, real-time threat intelligence. The alliance of Distil-protected sites constitutes a highly effective nexus of knowledge and power to defeat our shared enemy--malicious bots.”
"We wanted something that would run unattended and automatically stop the bots. We were astounded by the amount bad bots that are available o the Internet and try to access our datas. Distil just works."
"Distil blocked a major bot attack before it ever hit our site, a step above the usual kludgey JavaScript-based bot blocking solutions. Distil is simply the best bot detection and mitigation solution on the market."
"One web scraper was doing anything he could to get airfares, and despite our initial attempts with many other solutions to stop him, he could still get back into the site within 24 hours. But when we implemented Distil, he simply gave up."
“Before Distil, we were spending 20 to 30 hours a week investigating and blocking bots in our Web Application Firewalls. Now, it’s all automated.”
“One scraper had built their entire business around scraping one of our airline customers. In an attempt to evade detection, they’d change cloud providers and cycle through hundreds of IP addresses. Distil was still able to block them outright, because Distil isn’t based on blocking IP addresses, but rather on machine learning algorithms and device fingerprinting. With Distil, it’s like having an expert data science team on hand for frontline support. These guys live and breathe bots every day, so they’re really good at solving the issues impacting our airline customers.”
"GuideStar is the world’s largest source of information of nonprofit organizations. We have collected and curated billions of data points on nonprofit organizations and we needed a way to ensure our data was being used in a way that is consistent with our vision of driving social innovation and change. Distil has the ability to fingerprint bots, which gives us the ability to block by signature, not just by IP address."
“By nearly eliminating non-human traffic, Distil Networks has ensured that the ad interactions across my customers’ sites are high quality and human. One advertiser that filed a fraud inquiry said they’d never seen such in-depth reporting and needless to say, they remain a happy advertiser to this day.”
"Distil filters through all of our web traffic, ‘distils’ it, cleanses it and makes sure that we don't have to deal with any of the bad bots that try to scrape our sites. It eliminates all the management tasks for us and makes protecting our sites simple."
"With our previous bot management vendor by the time we got the bad IP address blocked, the bad guys had already moved to another IP address. Distil has the intelligence to determine the difference between a bot and a human, and this intelligence allows Distil to respond to the attack patterns without any form of interaction on our part. The solution just works."
"I told them that we have malicious attacks against our system, causing our system to go down. We need to do something, and I explained that Distil could solve our problems."
"The Distil deployment was perfect; I don’t think e-Travel has experienced a quicker integration, and the ongoing support has been fantastic. It’s hard to find a company as responsive and knowledgeable as Distil. But the biggest benefit Distil offers is that I no longer worry about bad bots affecting our business."
"We’re confident Distil is blocking bots—not genuine customers. And with price sensitivity being key, we’re assured that automated extraction agents are stopped cold."
"Data is the lifeblood of our business. Using Distil, we're able to block bots on a per request basis, rather than just blocking whole IPs. This allows us to protect our data and preserve a good user experience. With Distil, we've essentially outsourced our bot problem."
"Left unchecked, large digital publishers typically see 20% of the traffic hitting their sites from bad bots. With our previous toolset we were at about 7% bad bot traffic, and after deploying Distil, we’re confident that we’re at less than 1% of bad bot traffic.”
