Why Is CybaaAgent Visiting My Website?
CybaaAgent is scanning your site for vulnerabilities, either as part of an internet-wide sweep or because someone requested an assessment of your domain. Recurring visits often indicate that a monitoring service has added your site to its checks.
Should I Block CybaaAgent?
Usually not, unless you already run your own security scans and want cleaner logs. CybaaAgent checks for exposed vulnerabilities, and some services report their findings to site owners at no cost. For context, 7% of the top websites we track currently have robots.txt rules for CybaaAgent.
How Do I Block CybaaAgent Using Robots.txt?
Add this rule to your robots.txt file to block CybaaAgent from accessing your website, or use Automatic Robots.txt to block all security scanners at once. You can customize which pages are blocked by swapping out / for a different path.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Traffic Patterns Should I Expect From CybaaAgent?
CybaaAgent's cadence depends on how the scan is configured. Continuous monitoring may run daily or hourly, while a one-time or internet-wide scan may sweep once and disappear.
Does CybaaAgent Follow Robots.txt Rules?
CybaaAgent is expected to follow robots.txt rules, so a disallow rule is the appropriate first step if you want to block it. Automatic Robots.txt can add and maintain that rule, while Agent Analytics lets you verify whether CybaaAgent respects it.
Is CybaaAgent Used for AI Model Training?
Not ordinarily. CybaaAgent is not categorized as an AI training scraper or data provider, so AI model training is not its expected purpose.
Does Blocking CybaaAgent Affect AI Search or Citations?
Not directly. CybaaAgent's expected purpose is not to supply an AI search index or retrieve pages for AI-generated answers.
Does CybaaAgent Access Private Content?
It deliberately looks for exposed private content. CybaaAgent tests login pages, admin panels, and API endpoints for vulnerabilities. Probing does not mean it gained access, but you should expect requests to sensitive paths in your logs.
How Can I Verify a Request From CybaaAgent?
Agent Analytics tracks visits from CybaaAgent and every other known AI agent, crawler, and scraper, then authenticates each visit using CybaaAgent's published verification method. You can also check your server logs for requests whose user-agent string contains "CybaaAgent". Look for bursts of requests to uncommon paths that ordinary visitors rarely access. A matching log entry alone is not proof because any bot can claim to be CybaaAgent.
How Is CybaaAgent Different From Other Cybaa Agents?
Cybaa operates separate agents for different purposes, so each agent should be evaluated and controlled independently.
