A dynamic engine that allows for real-time adjustments based on emerging threat patterns, enhancing the system’s adaptability.

• • Strong Captcha System:

Advanced captcha mechanisms to differentiate between human users and automated bots, reducing the risk of automated attacks.

• • IP Identification:

Capabilities to accurately identify and track IP addresses, aiding in the detection of suspicious activities.

• • Bad IP Database Management Pool:

A comprehensive database of known malicious IP addresses, regularly updated to prevent access to these sources.

• • Threshold Capabilities:

The ability to set and adjust thresholds for access attempts, mitigating the risk of brute force attacks.

• • Various Other Security Management Features:

Including two-factor authentication, encrypted data transmission, real-time monitoring and alerts.

Client Challenge
