Datadome
This script, served by DataDome's CAPTCHA delivery system, integrates into a website to detect and mitigate malicious bot activity. It typically runs in the background, analyzing user behavior, browser characteristics, and other telemetry to distinguish between legitimate human users and automated bots. When suspicious activity is detected, it presents a CAPTCHA challenge (e.g., image recognition, reCAPTCHA-like interaction) to the user. Upon successful completion of the challenge, access to the requested resource is granted. If the challenge fails or suspicious patterns persist, access may be denied or additional challenges imposed. This process helps protect web applications, APIs, and online content from various threats, including scraping, credential stuffing, DDoS attacks, and spam. It operates client-side to render challenges and collect initial data, communicating with DataDome's servers for advanced threat analysis and decision-making.
