Arkose Labs Solution for API Abuse
Arkose Labs provides powerful protection of web- and mobile-facing APIs through a combination of real-time analysis, dynamic tokens, and interactive challenges.
Protection of APIs using traditional bot detection solutions is becoming obsolete, as perpetrators can mimic genuine traffic and fly under the radar of velocity rules. Just as one can no longer rely on static identity data and passwords to authenticate users, static API keys are hard to secure and need additional verification to confirm that traffic is coming from a genuine source.
Arkose Labs uses a multi-pronged approach to protect APIs from large-scale attacks which emulate remote clients and impersonate true users.
To eliminate traffic targeting the API directly, the solution embeds an Arkose Labs token into the web application or mobile SDK, and each request dynamically verifies that the token has passed from the client to the server. Arkose Labs monitors all traffic for known signals of abuse, using behavioral fingerprints, velocity and rate monitoring, and a proprietary user IP database.
Additionally, Arkose Labs provides secondary screening of all suspicious traffic, using 3D visual challenges which are rendered in real-time and resilient to automated solvers. Bot attacks fail spontaneously when met with these interactive puzzles.
