I want to make certain areas of my website accessible to browser users only, and not accessible to automated multithread bots. I am doing this to protect my data, and this is one of the measures I plan to use.
I thought of requiring all the requests to contain a pair of numbers, which must be computed with javascript, which is going to be obfuscated and obscured. But, after that, there's nothing that should stop a bot writer from grabbing a javascrpt bot engine like htmlunit and just executing the javascripts.
Google seems to had solved this problem somehow. I remember that most times I run HtmlUnit on a page with adwords enabled, the script engine crashed. Yet, in real browsers, the pages work just fine.
There must be a trick to it. Can anyone point me to a good info on how I could do this on my page?
