BotRx Debuts as First Bot Mitigation Company to Use Moving Target Defense

Bleeding-edge defense method creates asymmetric uncertainty for bots and gives defenders the upper hand

PR Newswire

PALO ALTO, Calif., Feb. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — BotRx, a web application security company that helps businesses defend against bot threats and improve operational effectiveness, today debuts at RSA Conference 2020, the first bot mitigation solution to use Moving Target Defense (MTD). Spearheaded by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and put into practice by BotRx, MTD upends security economics in favor of defenders using a dynamic attack surface to increase the complexity and cost of automated bot attacks and fraud efforts.

Leveraging attacker stealth tactics, including obfuscation, deception, and transformation, BotRx’s patented Dynamic Transformation Technology uses MTD to prevent automated bot attacks at the earliest stages. The proactive mitigation unbound by the limits of detection and prediction stops known and unknown attacker methods, reducing the reliance on resource-intensive detect-block processes that create false positives and anomalies that require human verification or interaction. Using MTD techniques depletes bot resources and robs attackers of valuable feedback needed to create new automation techniques. Fraudsters are unable to exploit application and network vulnerabilities or move laterally within an enterprise website.

To date, only a few cybersecurity companies have developed technologies that use MTD. “BotRx is innovating the bot mitigation market with this completely new approach that reduces the attack surface and ensures bots never find the targets they seek,” said Ming Xu, CEO and Co-Founder of BotRx. “At BotRx, making the online world a safer place to do business has always been our driving force. We see MTD as the cybersecurity changemaker that can provide more cost-effective protection to the cyber security market.”
