In the event that this rapid analysis detects potential bot activity, the visitor is silently diverted to a non-branded Veracity owned website which captures certain information about the browser, before redirecting the visitor back to where they came from on the original website.<\/p>\n<p>The process takes no more than a second, and in many cases is practically invisible to the user. This detection and potential redirection only happens once for each visitor to a website and our data indicates a less than 0.0015% false positive rate (approx. 15 people in a million), meaning that very few humans are tagged a potential bots in this way. This data is used in conjunction with the data captured by the Tracker for a better determination of the bot status of a visitor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row us_custom_9ccc05f2 scaleMe height_medium\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column bigP\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h4>Still need help?<\/h4>\n<p>Contact your Veracity account manager or email <a href=\"mailto:support@vtn.live\">support@vtn.live<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"First Pass Bot Detection First Pass or BotTraps This package is responsible for the more rapid detection of potential bot activity by using browser fingerprinting analysis.
