# What will AGI do for Block Malicious API Traffic?

## Overview

Security engineering teams constantly defend against malicious API requests that perfectly mimic legitimate machine-to-machine traffic. Attackers exploit business logic rather than network vulnerabilities, deploying distributed botnets to scrape proprietary data, stuff credentials, and manipulate account endpoints. Because APIs are built for automated access, isolating hostile intent from expected automated workflows directly conflicts with the core function of the API.

Traditional Web Application Firewalls and standard API gateways fail because they depend on static rate limits and signature-based rules. Attackers easily bypass these barriers by rotating IP addresses, randomizing headers, and keeping request frequencies just below alert thresholds. Security engineers are trapped in a cycle of manually tuning rules, creating rigid defenses that inevitably block paying customers or ignore low-and-slow data exfiltration.

The dynamic nature of modern software development guarantees this attack surface expands daily. As developers deploy undocumented shadow APIs or modify existing endpoint payloads, security teams lose baseline visibility into normal traffic patterns. Relying on static infrastructure tools to block dynamic application-layer abuse leaves organizations structurally exposed to logic-based attacks.
