Fraud protection looks at traffic. Security Watch looks at your platform itself: the things attackers try first.
What it checks every day
The Security Watch plugin runs a daily health check of:
- Certificates: expiring or broken SSL on your domains.
- Open ports that shouldn't be reachable.
- Exposed files, such as configuration or backup files left public.
- Logins: unusual sign-in activity.
- Backups, including restore tests, so you know a backup actually works.
You get a short daily digest, and an alert as soon as something is wrong.
Who needs it most
- Operators who license or own the source code and run it on their own servers. On a hosted plan we run the infrastructure; on your servers, these checks are yours to do.
- Any operator with custom domains and several team members.
Getting started
- Add the plugin ($990 one time; works with the DSP, SSP, ADX and DMP).
- Choose who receives the digest and alerts.
- Fix anything the first report flags; first reports often find an old file or an open port.
- Read the digest weekly even when it's quiet.
