Section Breakdown
Lecture 45
Cloudflare, AWS WAF & Akamai — How They Stack
Compare platform primitives, operational fit, and where managed products differ in leverage and visibility.
Lecture 46
Redis, Caching & Session Storage for Detection at Scale
Use caching and state stores to retain enough context for detection without losing performance.
Lecture 47
Plugging Your Detections Into a Real Production Environment
Integrate prototypes into request pipelines, incident workflows, and operational review loops.
Lecture 48
Logging, Observability & SOC Integration
Shape logs and metrics so bot investigations can move from dashboards into investigations and response.
Lecture 49
Cost of False Positives — Tuning Thresholds Without Blocking Real Users
Make the tradeoffs explicit when bot controls affect revenue, customer trust, and operator load.
