DataDome and Amazon Web Services protect websites across the world
Press release – DataDome & Amazon Web Services integration
Paris, 15 November 2017 — DataDome, a French cybersecurity company, is making another step forward in its integration with American giant Amazon’s cloud computing platform, number one in the world with more than a million active users. This partnership enables DataDome to simplify the implementation of its service protecting websites and mobile APIs from bot traffic, the source of the main cybersecurity issues threatening online activities today, to the extreme. For Amazon Web Services users, only a single click is now required in order to activate this protection, secure their customers’ data, protect their online content and block hackers.
The collaboration between DataDome and AWS goes back to 2016. Starting with a simple listing on the marketplace, DataDome became one of the first French companies to deliver its services via AWS’s directly managed SaaS offer in June. For Amazon Web Services customers, this made it possible to integrate the administrative and financial management of their DataDome subscription into their AWS account.
Now, DataDome is one of the very first companies in the world to leverage an advanced platform feature, called Lambda@Edge. This feature enables any AWS user in the world to subscribe to and to activate the DataDome service with one click on the platform.
“Thanks to Lambda@Edge and Cloudfront, we’re making it extremely easy for our customers to go live, and they can now activate our smart bot protection in less than two minutes via their AWS console,” says Benjamin Fabre, Cofounder and CTO of DataDome. “Our service is now available worldwide through its deployment to the hundreds of AWS Points of Presence at the edge of the cloud. The partnership with AWS is a unique opportunity for us to reach customers around the world, while minimizing the friction—technical or administrative—usually associated with acquiring an international customer base.“
Reflecting the importance of the partnership, DataDome has received an exceptional invitation to present its word at the global AWS Re:invent event which gathers Amazon Web Services partners in Las Vegas from November 27 to December 1, 2017. Benjamin Fabre will speak in one of the sessions, explaining the benefits of Lambda@Edge for all DataDome customers.
