Bot detection for Apache HTTP Server

Integrate Centinel with Apache using mod_rewrite or CGI-based validation.

Real-time detection

Spot AI crawlers on your Apache HTTP Server infrastructure the moment they access your site.

Under 2ms latency

Our validation API responds in under 2ms. Zero perceptible impact on your end users.

Crawler metadata

Every response includes crawler identification, category (AI training, inference, search), and access history.

How it works

Centinel + Apache HTTP Server in three steps

01
Add browser script
A lightweight script sets a session cookie on protected pages.
02
Configure Apache HTTP Server
Your Apache HTTP Server instance calls our validation API for protected endpoints.
03
Enforce decisions
Allow, block, or challenge based on the real-time API response.

"We had no idea 40% of our traffic was AI crawlers until Centinel showed us. Setup took fifteen minutes and we were blocking unauthorized scrapers the same day."
