Key Takeaways
Organizations have moved past whether traffic is human or a bot. They're now deciding if an interaction is legitimate, abusive, or acting on behalf of someone else. Forrester's latest evaluation examines how top vendors help organizations navigate this shift, including: the evolution from Bot Management to Bot & Agent Trust Management; how vendors support trust decisions across bots, fraud, and AI agents; how providers stack up across strategy and current offerings; and how customers rated their experience with each solution.
With one of the highest scores in the strategy category in the evaluation, Kasada also received the highest scores possible in the innovation, roadmap, AI agent trust management, account trust and protection, and bot and agent detection explainability criteria.

What This Means for Your Team
Forrester does not endorse any company, product, brand, or service included in its research publications and does not advise any person to select the products or services of any company or brand based on the ratings included in such publications. Information is based on the best available resources. Opinions reflect judgment at the time and are subject to change.
Real users never see friction. Kasada stops bots invisibly, without challenges or false positives blocking legitimate customers. Your users get a clean experience. Attackers hit a wall they can't see.
One person manages what used to take three. Kasada handles detection and response so your team doesn't have to. 40% security team productivity improvement. 50% less vendor management effort.
It just works — and keeps working. Attackers evolve. Kasada's threat research team evolves faster. The system adapts without you tuning it, so the protection you deploy on day one is stronger on day 365.
You finally know what's real. When bots are removed from your traffic, everything downstream gets cleaner — conversion data, fraud signals, infrastructure costs, and the decisions your business makes from all of it.

From the Forrester Total Economic Impact™
Being named a Leader in the Forrester Wave tells you where Kasada stands in the market. But there's more. Kasada commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a Total Economic Impact™ study of Kasada, and we believe the results speak for themselves: 200% ROI, payback in under six months, $15–$30 in prevented loss for every dollar spent, and a 40% lift in security team productivity.

Before Kasada, each organization in the study had a legacy CDN bot management solution. All of them had the same problem: their tool was telling them they were protected. They weren’t.

New Forrester research reveals how bots, scrapers, and AI agents distort attribution, waste ad spend, and create blind spots across teams — and outlines how to align marketing and security around what actually drives revenue.
