Here at Imunify, we’re always monitoring web data at scale – and we’ve noticed a clear trend: legitimate AI bots, like those from Meta, Apple, OpenAI, and other reputable organizations, are increasingly behaving aggressively, excessively consuming server resources, and often ignoring instructions in files like robot.txt.
These sorts of issues caused by AI-powered bots can severely impact both website performance and resource efficiency.
To assist hosting providers and website owners in effectively managing these aggressive bots, we’ve created specialized ModSecurity rule sets designed to precisely and effectively block significant AI bot traffic for some of the most popular AI modules.
