Site24x7 is a bot in the monitoring and analytics bots category, operated by Site24x7.
Site24x7's global website monitoring probe.
Monitoring bots check uptime, performance and page changes on behalf of a site owner or a third party. Allow the services you run yourself and exclude them from analytics so they do not inflate page views.
Sample user agent strings sent by Site24x7:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/34.0.1847.137 Safari/537.36 (site24x7)site24x7.comAnyone can copy a user agent string. Transfon Security also checks where each request comes from, so a request that claims to be a known crawler but comes from the wrong network is treated as a fake, not as the real crawler.
We have not confirmed whether Site24x7 follows robots.txt. Add a rule, then check your logs to see that it stopped. robots.txt is a plain text file at the root of your domain, such as https://example.com/robots.txt.

User-agent: site24x7 group, Site24x7 ignores your User-agent: * rules, so repeat any that should still apply.site24x7 from Site24x7's user agent; check Site24x7's own documentation if it publishes a different robots.txt name.Treat robots.txt as a statement of your policy, and enforce it where requests arrive.
Allow Site24x7 if it is a service you use, and keep its visits out of page views and ad requests either way.
Transfon Security for publishersSite24x7 is not a person. Exclude it from campaign and conversion data so reports reflect real visitors.
Transfon Security for advertisersAllow Site24x7 only if it works for your store, and keep it away from cart and checkout.
Transfon Security for e-commerceIf Site24x7 is a service you use, allow it on the endpoints it needs and block it elsewhere.
Transfon Security for SaaS and APIsrobots.txt is a request, not an enforcement. Transfon Security shows Site24x7 by name in the Top Bots report, so you can see how often it visits and which pages it reads. Block or allow it with a User Agent rule, or slow it down with a rate limit decision rule.

Site24x7 is a bot in the monitoring and analytics bots category, operated by Site24x7. Site24x7's global website monitoring probe.
We have not confirmed whether Site24x7 follows robots.txt. Add a robots.txt rule, then check your logs to see that it stopped, and block it by user agent if it did not.
Add "User-agent: site24x7" followed by "Disallow: /" to the robots.txt file at the root of your site. To enforce it, block requests whose user agent contains "site24x7" at your WAF. In Transfon Security that is one User Agent block rule.
No. robots.txt is voluntary, so Site24x7 may not follow it, and anyone can send Site24x7's user agent, so a fake Site24x7 ignores your rule. Enforce the rule where requests arrive, at your WAF, and check the source network.
Monitoring bots check uptime, performance and page changes on behalf of a site owner or a third party. Allow the services you run yourself and exclude them from analytics so they do not inflate page views.
