Radware® (NASDAQ: RDWR), a leading provider of cyber security and
application delivery solutions, announced that Alza, a leading
consumer electronics online retailer in Central Europe relies on
Radware Bot Manager to protect its online operations.
The retailer, which processes more than 12 million transactions
annually, faced numerous challenges from malicious bots, including
brute force attacks against log-in pages and APIs, website scraping
and wasted CPU usage stemming from heavy traffic.
With Radware’s automated Bot Manager, it can now dynamically
detect traffic anomalies and blocks bot attacks immediately, faster
than before.
“We onboarded Bot Manager in the midst of our peak season, and
saw immediate results/benefits,” said Daniel Padevet, Head of Web
IT Operations team at Alza.cz a.s.. “Our customer’s experiences are
our top priority. By working with Radware, we are able to better
secure and improve the shopping experience.”
Soon after starting using Radware, the site saw a 10 percent
decrease in CPU usage in its server farms, a total elimination of
brute force attacks, and a significant reduction in automated bots
restricting inventory.
“We started working with Alza at the beginning of the holiday
season, a time when any disruptions or failures would have drastic
business consequences,” said Anna Convery-Pelletier, Chief
Marketing Officer of Radware. “This is also a time when bot traffic
is often at its highest. We were able to successfully mitigate
threats associated with bots and gain their trust when other
companies failed.”
In addition to the challenges this retailer faced, the problem
of managing malicious bots is growing for all businesses. According
to Radware research, companies are facing increasing numbers of bot
attacks on their websites, mobile applications, and APIs. In 2019,
bad bot traffic accounted for nearly a quarter of total internet
traffic, a significant increase from the previous year.
