Bot Management, WAF & edge challenges
Bypass Fastly
Fastly protects high-traffic sites with Bot Management, WAF rules (Signal Sciences), TLS fingerprinting, and edge rate limits. Piloterr passes Fastly validation using hyper-stealth Chrome and byte-perfect TLS fingerprints on every API request.
- Bot Management signals handled in stealth Chrome with coherent browser context
- WAF and ACL evasion via TLS/JA3 alignment and HTTP/2 normalization
- Edge challenges and rate limits managed without client-side configuration
How Fastly detects bots
Fastly scores requests at the CDN edge using TLS fingerprints, HTTP semantics, Bot Management client signals, and WAF rule matches. Suspicious sessions receive blocks, delays, or JavaScript challenges before origin access.
- TLS ClientHello and HTTP/2 SETTINGS must match a real browser profile
- Bot Management collects client-side signals and behavioral metadata
- WAF rules block anomalous headers, paths, and payload patterns

How Piloterr bypasses Fastly
Hyper-stealth Chromium explores Fastly-protected pages with aligned TLS, HTTP/2, and JavaScript runtime fingerprints. Bot Management scripts run in-browser; session cookies persist across paginated extraction flows.
- Own patched Chrome, not stock headless with flags disabled
- Private datacenter pools with geo-targeting included on every request
- Regression tests against Fastly-protected targets catch rule updates early

Everything you need to know before integrating.
Do I need Fastly-specific configuration?
No. Enable anti-bot bypass on any Piloterr API request. Fastly detection, challenge handling, and session management happen automatically.
