Case Study: Groupe Profession Santé achieves 30% server load reduction with DataDome

Groupe Profession Santé reduces its server load by 30 percent with DataDome

Groupe Profession Santé, the leading French media and services group for health professionals, faced repeated slowdowns and a denial-of-service incident caused by unseen bot and crawler traffic across its sites (including Le Quotidien du Médecin). To stop the attacks and regain control of site performance, the group turned to DataDome’s bot protection solution.

DataDome was quickly implemented and immediately revealed a large volume of malicious and commercial crawlers, allowing Groupe Profession Santé to block unwanted traffic and selectively allow beneficial bots. As a result, DataDome reduced requests to the group’s servers—and server load—by 20–30%, stabilized site performance, protected digital vulnerability points, improved traffic visibility, and opened opportunities to identify potential commercial partners.
