Case Study: JetBlue reduces unwanted bot traffic and boosts website performance with Fastly

JetBlue grounds unwanted traffic with Fastly Next-Gen WAF and Bot Management

JetBlue, the 6th largest airline in the United States, needed to protect its high-traffic website, jetblue.com, from cyberattacks and excessive bot activity without hurting performance or customer experience. Dissatisfied with its previous security vendors, JetBlue turned to Fastly and its Next-Gen WAF and Bot Management solutions to better secure its site and preserve bandwidth for legitimate travelers.

Fastly helped JetBlue migrate 35 sites in just 3 days and deploy edge-based protections that improved visibility, reduced false positives, and simplified rule management. During a major fare sale, Fastly Bot Management cut unwanted bot traffic by 95%, while also easing origin load, improving response times, and reducing costs—helping JetBlue stay secure and performant during peak demand.
