AI, Adaptability, & Ease: What’s New in DataDome’s Q3 2025 Platform Updates

In Q3 2025, DataDome introduced a series of powerful updates across our Cyberfraud Protection Platform, each designed to make AI traffic control smarter, fraud detection faster, and integration easier.

From adaptive account protection to AI traffic monetization, these releases share one mission: to keep you one step ahead of evolving cyberfraud and automation threats while giving you more control, visibility, and value.

Below is a look at some noteworthy advancements across the DataDome platform, organized by theme.

AI & intelligent defense

DataDome’s latest AI innovations deliver adaptive protection that evolves with your traffic, while giving you full visibility, control, and even monetization opportunities over the growing wave of AI agents and LLM crawlers.

AI agents & LLM crawlers: Visibility, control, & monetization

AI agents and LLM crawlers are reshaping the web and changing fraud tactics along with it. We’ve added a new AI Agents category to your dashboard with intent-based filters that help you understand, classify, and control agentic traffic.

Why it matters:
Gain instant insight into who’s accessing your content—humans, trusted crawlers, or rogue AI agents—and act in real time.

Monetize AI/LLM traffic (with Tollbit)

Your content fuels the AI ecosystem—now you can get value back. Through our new partnership with Tollbit, you can monetize AI agent and LLM traffic directly from your dashboard.

How it works:

• Inspect and classify every request in real time
• Apply “Monetize” policies to specific AI/LLM providers
• Trigger paywall logic via your selected monetization partner

Why it matters:

• Create new revenue streams from AI traffic
• Maintain full control over who accesses your content 
• Preserve human UX while enforcing fair use

Adaptive protection powered by Genetic Algorithms

Our latest AI model brings evolutionary intelligence to Account Protect. Detection models now adapt dynamically to each customer’s unique traffic patterns using genetic algorithms that evolve in real time based on real-world feedback.

What it means:

• Detection logic continuously tests, refines, and evolves
• Thresholds automatically adjust by customer and endpoint
• Gaps close faster with real-world feedback loops

The result:
Smarter, adaptive protection that evolves alongside attackers—no manual tuning required.

Proactive fraud detection & behavioral insight

This quarter, Account Protect gained powerful new capabilities that help teams detect early-stage fraud and assess account risk with AI-driven precision.

Account Protect: AI-Powered email scoring

Account Protect now features machine learning–based email scoring, a new signal that measures how closely an address matches human-created patterns. Low scores can flag suspicious or synthetic accounts, giving you richer context for decision-making.

Why it matters:

• Detect fake or low-quality registrations faster
• Fine-tune rules with higher-quality inputs
• Track and visualize email quality trends

Account Protect: See beyond the login

Fraud doesn’t stop at the login screen. Account Protect helps you track post-login behaviors—such as password updates, contact info changes, and new payment methods—to identify early-stage account takeovers.

What you can now detect:

• Contact info or password changes → Potential lockout attempts after takeover
• New payment cards → Early signs of monetization or loyalty fraud
• Login method switches → Possible token abuse or credential stuffing
• New regions or addresses → Indicators of reshipping or incentive abuse
• Mass profile edits → Signals of fake account farming or spam operations

Why it matters:
Fraud often begins after authentication. By surfacing these post-login signals, Account Protect helps you connect behavioral dots that traditional login security alone misses and closes the visibility gap between access and action.

Ease of use & visibility

DataDome’s latest updates make protection management faster and clearer, with richer data signals, unified navigation, and instant visibility into every script, rule, and request.

Platform-wide enhancements: More data, more control

We’ve expanded the depth and granularity of your threat data, giving you more tools to investigate, customize, and control.

New signal availability:

• Request detail fields: +50% (43 → 66)  provides richer HTTP and header data for deeper forensic investigation
• Search query fields: +230% (18 → 60) enables faster correlation of threat patterns across requests and sessions
• Custom rule fields: +160% (16 → 42) adds more variables to fine-tune detection logic and policy conditions
• Endpoint fields: +170% (11 → 30) delivers greater flexibility in segmenting traffic

Why it matters:

More data means sharper visibility and faster decision-making. You can now explore threats in greater detail and build targeted, high-impact rules that match your unique environment.

• Faster, deeper forensic investigations
• More precise endpoint and rule definitions
• Richer, more granular data for traffic analysis

These enhancements are live now in the Threat Dashboard.

Bot Protect: Unified access & simplified navigation

You can now access Bot Protect directly from the main navigation bar. This enhancement improves visibility across your entire Cyberfraud Platform and makes it easier to manage protections across web, mobile, and API traffic.

Benefits:

• Unified access to Bot Protect, Account Protect, DDoS Protect, Page Protect, and Ad Protect
• Streamlined, intuitive navigation
• Centralized visibility across all protections

Page Protect: Inline script visibility made simple

The latest Page Protect release lets you identify and review inline scripts directly within the dashboard—no code searches or tool switching needed.

Why it matters:

• Instantly review every inline script
• Simplify PCI DSS 4.0 compliance checks
• Save time on code and script validation

Integrations & ecosystem expansion

DataDome’s growing partner ecosystem, including Edgee, Akamai, and Arc XP, makes it easier than ever to deploy protection at the edge, enrich detection signals, and extend AI-powered fraud defense across your existing stack.

Edgee integration (server-side)

Our partnership with Edgee brings DataDome protection directly to the edge. Edgee now supports native DataDome JavaScript tag injection for full real-time inspection and mitigation.

Why it matters:

• Stop threats before they reach your infrastructure
• Deploy in minutes with zero UX impact
• One-step setup with automatic client-side tag injection

Akamai integration: Now with GraphQL signals

Akamai users can now capture GraphQL-level signals (v1.4.0) to improve visibility into key flows like login, checkout, and product browsing, which typically share a single GraphQL endpoint.

Why it matters:
Distinguish between actions within GraphQL requests for higher detection accuracy and better endpoint management.

Arc XP Integration: Cyberfraud protection for publishers

We’ve teamed up with Arc XP to make DataDome’s AI-powered cyberfraud protection available directly within the Arc XP Edge Framework.

Now available:

• Classify and manage AI/LLM traffic in real time
• Detect and stop bot-driven or fraudulent activity
• Apply DataDome policy controls natively in Arc XP

This partnership helps digital publishers defend their content and monetize trusted AI access without deep engineering work.
