Global organizations are struggling to maintain consistent application security across multiple platforms, and they are also losing visibility with the emergence of new architectures and the adoption of APIs.

The most common Bot attack is denial-of-service, taking different shapes.
Denial-of-service at the application layer is frequently in the form of HTTP/S floods.
