Techniques for web bot detection using behavioral analysis and machine learning are disclosed. In an example method, a processing device receives an indication of a network interaction by a client agent, from which behaviors of the client agent can be determined. A heuristics module may classify the client agent as in an unknown class based on the behaviors of the client agent. A trained adversarial neural network may also classify the client agent as in the unknown class. The processing device then generates a graph representation of the network interaction. A trained graph convolutional neural network may classify the client agent as in a bot class using the graph representation. Based on the classification of the client agent as a bot, the processing device executes a command to cause a bot countermeasure and generates a notification including information about the behaviors of the client agent.
