Fake ad clicks drain marketing budgets, distort analytics, and reduce campaign ROI.

Landing pages are the heartbeat of any digital marketing campaign. They drive traffic, capture leads, and push conversions. But with this importance comes vulnerability. Marketers frequently face bot attacks, form spam, credential stuffing, and other malicious traffic that can damage campaign performance.

Online forms are critical for capturing leads, collecting feedback, and driving conversions. But when these forms are left unprotected, they become prime targets for spam bots.
