Detection methods

IP Range Detection
Zyte's Scrapy Cloud operates from identifiable cloud infrastructure. Centinel tracks known Zyte datacenter IP ranges and ASN allocations.
Behavioral Pattern
Scrapy-based crawling produces characteristic request patterns: depth-first URL traversal, predictable delay intervals, and systematic link following that differs from human browsing.
User Agent Analysis
Zyte's default Scrapy user agent and Smart Proxy Manager user agent strings are tracked in Centinel's signature database.
Residential Proxy Detection
Zyte Smart Proxy Manager routes through residential IPs. Centinel detects proxy rotation patterns and correlates with known Zyte infrastructure behavior.
