    The 'BOTDEFENSE::reason' is only valid in the event 'BOTDEFENSE_ACTION' so your iRule would have to look like the following:

    when BOTDEFENSE_ACTION { 
	if { ([BOTDEFENSE::action] eq "allow") && (not ([string tolower [BOTDEFENSE::reason]] starts_with "valid mobile application cookie")) } {
		BOTDEFENSE::action tcp_rst
	}	
}
