Bot Fight Mode uses a combination of factors, including browser fingerprinting, JavaScript execution, and challenge response analysis. Legitimate bots, like search engine crawlers, typically adhere to established protocols (e.g., User-Agent headers, robots.txt) and behave predictably. Definite mode aggressively tests these behaviors, making it difficult for malicious bots to mimic legitimate ones.
