Case Study: Entropay achieves 100% system uptime and blocks account takeover attempts with Distil Networks

Entropay blocks account takeover attempts, and accelerates the performance of its online payment services with Distil Networks

Entropay, a European virtual prepaid card provider regulated by the FCA, was hit by waves of automated account takeover attacks and credential-stuffing that caused slowdowns, downtime and widespread operational strain across customer support, product and security teams. Their prior bot-management vendor was reactive, required heavy manual intervention, and even caused account lockouts for legitimate users, leaving availability and customer trust at risk.

Entropay deployed Distil Networks (private AWS cloud) to automatically detect and block malicious bots and prevent fraudulent logins and fake account creation, including using FunCaptcha for tougher cases. Since deployment they report 100% system uptime, an 84% reduction in time spent on bot-related monitoring and response, elimination of account lockouts, and faster, more reliable access for real customers.
