Running on our servers

A bot blocked on one server is blocked on all

Bots looking for flaws visit every server of a host, one after another. HT Guard shares what it learns: as soon as one server spots a dangerous bot, the others block it too.

How it works

One server spots a botPassword guessing, scanning for sensitive files, uploading malicious files.

The central server is toldIt checks that it is not a real search engine or a trusted address.

Every server blocks itWithin seconds the address is blocked everywhere, before it even tries elsewhere.
