Using ShieldSquare’s Feed-Based Protection you can block the bots at the Web Application level or firewall level.

If there is any cap in blocking certain number of IPs at a particular instance in your CDN / WAF blacklisting feature, ShieldSquare Bot Engine can generate IP Subnet / network in the Feed in CIDR format (Eg : xx.xx.xx.0/16) so that the limitation can be addressed.
