Cloudflare Bot Management
Cloudflare Bot Management is the machine-learning bot-scoring layer of the Cloudflare edge, used to allow, challenge or block automated clients. It is detected from the bot-management cookies and scripts Cloudflare injects.
Its presence means a site actively scores visitor automation, which can interfere with scanning. It is a defensive feature and not a statement about the site’s own trustworthiness.
