About DataDome

DataDome is a commercial security service that protects websites, mobile apps and APIs from malicious automated traffic and online fraud. It sits in front of an application, judges whether each request comes from a legitimate user or a bot, and blocks or challenges the unwanted ones.

The vendor's homepage could not be read when this entry was prepared, so a detailed feature list is not available. Services in this category typically address scraping, credential stuffing, account takeover and fake account creation, and they are generally installed through integrations with a web server, CDN or application code. DataDome is a hosted commercial product, and pricing is not part of the supplied facts.
