Account Protect Updates: Clearer Visibility, Stronger Signals, & More Control

Account fraud can unfold across the entire user journey, from registration and login to password resets and account recovery. 

To protect users effectively, businesses need clear visibility into account activity, strong signals for detecting suspicious behavior, and the ability to respond quickly when risk changes.

The latest Account Protect updates strengthen each of these areas. Customers can now get more visibility into their Account Protect usage and can manage their protection status through an API.

Together, these capabilities help businesses build a stronger account-fraud defense, with better visibility into risk and more options for taking action.

More visibility into Account Protect usage

Account Protect customers now have access to a dedicated view on the Plan & Traffic page, bringing consumption and plan information directly into the dashboard.

This update includes:

• Account Protect traffic consumption on the Plan & Traffic page
• Account Protect plan details in the dashboard 

This makes Account Protect easier to manage as customer needs evolve.

Manage protection status through the Account Settings API

Customers can now manage the global protection status of their Account Protect configuration programmatically through the Account Settings API.

The API enables customers to:

• Check whether Account Protect protection is enabled or disabled
• Update the global protection status when needed
• Integrate Account Protect into incident-response workflows
• Include protection status in infrastructure-as-code and security automation
• Verify changes across the API and DataDome dashboard 

Customers can incorporate protection-status changes into response plans when facing a rapidly changing threat, or include them in automated deployment and configuration workflows.

This gives customers more direct and flexible control over how Account Protect protection is managed as their operational needs change.

From detection to protection

The Plan & Traffic update gives customers better visibility into their protection environment, and the Account Settings API gives customers more direct and flexible control over how protection is managed.

Together, these capabilities help businesses build a stronger account-fraud defense, with better visibility into risk and more options for taking action.
