The Forrester Wave™: Bot And Agent Trust Management Software, Q2 2026

Regain control with granular visibility of AI traffic

AI agents may become the dominant consumers of online interactions. Agent Trust detects, classifies, and shows real-time AI agent activity – and users – across your websites, apps, and APIs.

Gain insights into consumer behavior and marketing funnels as agentic AI traffic replaces traditional user traffic. With real-time analytics and trend reporting, business leaders can make informed decisions.

Verify the identity of AI agents continuously

No more undeclared, unknown, or easily spoofed AI agents that can increase fraud risk. Agent Trust relies on Web Bot Auth, an authentication method that uses cryptographic signatures, to verify the identity of all AI agents on every request.

AI agents with confirmed identities can interact and transact based on assigned policies. Unverified AI agents are blocked or constrained automatically, without manual intervention. You’re in control, instantly.

Establish trust by validating intent continuously

Verified AI agents can go off the rails. Don’t give them a free pass. Intent is a critical component of Agent Trust. The assessment of trust is never static, but continuous and updated based on new intent signals of AI agents as they move through the customer journey.

Empower trusted AI agents to interact and transact within defined guardrails for a fast, frictionless customer experience. Capture new revenue opportunities as AI agents become the primary interface for consumer transactions.

Block malicious AI & protect against sophisticated threats

Agentic AI changes the security landscape by multiplying risk. AI agents can act autonomously, scale instantly, and learn from every interaction, creating a feedback loop where threats accelerate faster than traditional defenses can adapt.

Agent Trust detects and blocks malicious AI agents and limits untrusted ones in real time before they can cause damage. Reduce business risk and cyberfraud costs from undetected attacks, protecting your brand reputation and customer confidence.

FAQ

What is Agent Trust?

Agent Trust is a new security paradigm designed to free the web from cyberfraud in the emerging agentic AI era. It ensures that every digital interaction with an AI agent is authenticated, accountable, and aligned with legitimate business value by continuously assessing identity and intent through the customer journey.

Why is Agent Trust important for my business?

Forrester forecasts a 50% reduction in organic web traffic in 2026 as AI chatbots and agents supplant traditional search and browsing. Nearly 50% of Internet traffic today is already automated bots, and agentic AI multiplies this complexity exponentially. Without Agent Trust, businesses risk losing revenue, customer confidence, and suffering from undetected agentic AI-driven attacks.

How does Agent Trust differ from traditional bot management?

Agent Trust goes beyond simple ‘bot or not’ decisions. It continuously assesses ‘How much do I trust this bot, AI agent, or human?’ and chooses actions based on the degree of trust. It validates who an AI agent is, what it’s doing, why it’s doing it, and whether it continues to deserve that trust as it acts throughout the customer journey.

What threats does Agent Trust protect against?

Agent Trust protects against sophisticated agentic AI-driven attacks including account takeover (ATO), credential stuffing, web scraping, API abuse, fake account creation, price manipulation, inventory hoarding, and DDoS attacks. It blocks malicious AI agents while enabling trusted ones to operate within defined guardrails.

How does DataDome establish trust with AI agents?

DataDome validates the identity and intent of AI agents in real time using dedicated AI models, new identity and intent signals, and business intelligence integrations. The assessment is continuous and dynamic, updated based on new signals from digital interactions throughout the user journey, not a static measure.

What is Web Bot Auth?

Web Bot Auth is an emerging IETF authentication standard that enables AI agents to prove their identity with cryptographic verification. DataDome supports Web Bot Auth so customers can authenticate legitimate AI agents with unforgeable signatures. Web Bot Auth requires AI agents to attach a cryptographic signature to every HTTP request. DataDome analyzes 100% of the requests by the AI agent and verifies the signature using the public key from the provider platform.

Will Agent Trust impact my legitimate AI agent traffic?

No. Agent Trust is designed to enable frictionless interactions for verified and trusted AI agents within defined guardrails. With high detection accuracy and low latency (P95 under <2ms), legitimate AI agents can transact with high performance and no friction, driving new business revenue and increasing consumer confidence.
