Human Users Detection: stop bots with Nginx

Presented at RomHack 2018, Sept. 22, 2018, 3 p.m. (45 minutes).

Every day, websites and web applications receive many scans and attacks from botnets and script kiddies.

We'll see also how "big vendors" uses this technique in order to intercept automatisms on their customers' websites and web applications.
