In this episode, Allen, Adi, and Sascha are joined by Michael Lubas, the founder of paraxial.io, as they delve into the world of bot defense. Michael highlights the importance of bot defense, especially for small companies who are often deliberately targeted. The group examines the issues with "man-in-the-middle" solutions like Cloudflare and how this can be avoided by having bot defenses built into the application itself - the approach paraxial.io is taking. He explains how paraxial's bot detection and defense work on a high level, how it tries to reduce the runtime overhead to a minimum, and what other security topics are relevant for the day-to-day Elixir developer.
