Get Started with Attack Detection
Attack Detection tracks data sent from your website (usually by Javascript). This can help combat Magecart attacks that can steal customer information on your site.
RapidSpike looks at where your website is sending information and marks these destinations as safe or pending. This works on both self-hosted JavaScript files as well as scripts hosted by a third party.
