Robot checker

A robot checker for websites is a tool that is used to determine whether website traffic is coming from human users or automated bots.

Automated bots can be used for a variety of purposes, such as web scraping, search engine indexing, or malicious activities such as spamming or hacking attempts. To protect a website and its visitors from these threats, website owners may use a robot checker to identify and block suspicious or malicious bot traffic.

Robot checkers can use a variety of techniques to distinguish between human and bot traffic, such as analyzing user behavior, browser and device characteristics, IP address and location data, and other factors. Some robot checkers may also use advanced machine learning algorithms to detect and respond to new and evolving bot threats.

When a robot checker identifies bot traffic on a website, it may take various actions to mitigate the threat, such as blocking the IP address associated with the bot, requiring additional verification steps for suspicious activity, or displaying a CAPTCHA challenge to verify that the user is human.
