AI, Bots, and the Agentic Future of the Web for SaaS/PaaS

How SaaS and PaaS platforms can navigate traffic shifts, protect origin infrastructure, and monetize AI agents in the new era of the web.

Join Fastly’s Field Sales CTO Omeed Nosrati (who has seen the network grow since 2013) and Group Security PMM David King as they break down real-world traffic data, macro security trends, and share actionable strategies for navigating the rise of agentic commerce.

What you'll learn:

• The SaaS/PaaS Bot Premium: Why SaaS and PaaS platforms receive 22% more unwanted bot traffic than the global baseline—and where your infrastructure is most vulnerable.

• Intent Over Blocks: How to move beyond traditional whack-a-mole blocking to categorize wanted vs. unwanted traffic (SEO, AEO, LLM fetchers, and malicious scripts).

• Practical Deception Strategies: Why simple rate-limiting fails, and how to weaponize Deception techniques—like feeding attackers fake credentials—to frustrate bad actors and destroy their attack ROI.

• Spoon-Feeding & Monetizing AI Traffic: How to use Markdown strategies and rate-limiting to control what LLMs amplify, plus practical ways to turn AI scraping into a new revenue stream.

• Preparing for the Agentic Era: How APIs, RAG requests, and autonomous agents are reshaping origin strain and what engineering teams must do to maintain resilience.
