What Is Blackwall and Why Do 2.3 Million Websites Choose It?

Over the past month, we’ve talked about the problem – malicious bots, the hidden costs, the signs that most businesses overlook. Today we talk about the solution.

What is Blackwall?

Blackwall (formerly known as BotGuard) is a web security platform that protects websites from malicious bots, DDoS attacks, scraping, and other automated threats. Founded in Tallinn, Estonia, it now protects more than 2.3 million websites worldwide.

The most important detail: it works before any threat reaches your server. It doesn’t react after the damage is done – it prevents it from the start.

How does it work in practice?

Every visit to your website is analyzed in real time. Blackwall examines the visitor’s behavior, their origin, and how they interact with the page – and decides in fractions of a second whether it’s a real user or a bot.

Legitimate visitors – and useful bots like Google’s – pass through normally. Everything else is blocked before it reaches your server.

What does it include?

  • Web Application Firewall (WAF) for real-time threat protection
  • Bot detection using behavioral analysis, not simple blocklists
  • DDoS attack protection
  • Automatic SSL certificate management
  • A dashboard to see exactly what traffic your site is receiving

Why does it fit SMEs?

Most security solutions on the market are built for large enterprises – and priced accordingly. Blackwall was designed to be accessible to smaller businesses too, without requiring a technical team or changes to your website code.

You don’t need to understand how it works technically. You just need it to work.
