General invalid traffic (GIVT)

Invalid traffic identifiable from published lists and known signatures: declared bots, data-centre traffic, search-engine crawlers, and other non-human sources that announce themselves.

GIVT is the cheapest invalid traffic to remove: a request is matched against published bot lists, data-centre IP ranges, and known crawler user-agents, with no behavioural analysis needed. ClickLens filters GIVT at the network and automation layers before a session reaches behavioural scoring, so the harder sophisticated invalid traffic gets the scoring effort.
