Case Study: Crédit Agricole Personal Finance & Mobility achieves cleaner analytics and controlled AI crawler access with DataDome

Crédit Agricole Personal Finance & Mobility cuts bot traffic by 40% with DataDome

Crédit Agricole Personal Finance & Mobility (CAPFM), a major consumer credit and mobility services provider, faced a significant challenge protecting its critical financial data from sophisticated automated threats. Its high-traffic websites were constantly targeted by scraper bots from competitors and, increasingly, by AI and LLM crawlers. This malicious and unwanted automated traffic was hurting site performance and skewing analytics. Before turning to DataDome, the company relied on complex, manual WAF and firewall rules that were time-consuming to maintain and ineffective against evolving bot tactics.

CAPFM implemented DataDome's Bot Protect solution for real-time, AI-powered bot management. This allowed for automatic behavioral analysis of incoming traffic, freeing the security team from manual maintenance. The results were a 40% reduction in malicious bot traffic, restored analytics reliability, and a seamless user experience with invisible CAPTCHAs. DataDome also provided CAPFM with granular control to securely govern access for AI and LLM crawlers, achieving a balance between security and performance.
