What is PingOne Protect?

Modern fraud doesn’t announce itself. It impersonates real users, mimics human behavior, and scales fast with bots and automation. Static rules and traditional tools are too slow – and too blunt – to keep up.

PingOne Protect, from Ping Identity, delivers real-time, machine-learning-based risk scoring, empowering identity and fraud teams to detect and act on threats before access is granted. It continuously analyzes behavioral, device, and network signals to assess whether a user should be challenged, blocked, or allowed to continue.

ProofID helps organizations integrate PingOne Protect into complex identity architectures – and prove its impact fast with a structured Proof of Value (POV).

Legacy identity defenses were built for a simpler threat model – one user, one password, one challenge. That model no longer applies. Attackers now:

• Reuse compromised credentials
• Create synthetic identities at scale
• Use bots to mimic normal behavior
• Exploit MFA fatigue and rigid policies

PingOne Protect changes the game by embedding adaptive risk detection directly into the identity layer – evaluating every interaction in context and responding instantly.

PingOne Protect is a cloud-native, API-driven fraud detection service that integrates directly with the Ping Identity Platform. It analyzes a wide array of signals to generate a real-time risk score (0–100), complete with explanation and confidence level.

Signal Categories:

• Device intelligence (fingerprint, OS, emulator detection)
• Network insights (IP reputation, proxy detection, ASN)
• Behavioral biometrics (mouse movement, typing cadence, navigation)
• Location anomalies (geo-velocity, impossible travel)
• Threat history (known risk patterns, session analysis)

This risk score feeds directly into PingOne DaVinci, PingFederate, PingAM, or PingOne AIC to automate decisions such as:

• Allow access (low risk)
• Trigger step-up authentication (medium risk)
• Block access or notify SOC (high risk)

• Financial Services – Prevent high-risk access attempts, account takeover, and synthetic fraud – without introducing excessive friction for customers.
• Retail & eCommerce – Block bots, prevent promotional abuse, and defend against fake account creation – without harming conversion rates.
• Healthcare – Ensure that only authorised users access patient systems – even across distributed networks and BYOD environments.
• Higher Education – Safeguard student and staff access across open networks and decentralized applications.

To help you evaluate PingOne Protect in your environment, we offer a low-risk, fixed-price POV. Over four weeks, we deploy PingOne Protect in listen-only mode, analyze risk signals, and deliver a full business impact report. You’ll gain:

• A view of fraud that PingOne Protect would have blocked
• MFA challenge reduction opportunities
• Signal analysis and risk scoring dashboards
• A costed roadmap for full deployment

We’re more than a delivery partner – we’re identity security experts. As a six-time Ping Delivery Partner of the Year, ProofID works across sectors where fraud and compliance intersect with complex access requirements.

We’ve deployed PingOne Protect in banking, retail, healthcare, and higher education environments – tailoring each implementation to maximize threat coverage, user experience, and ROI.

Let’s put PingOne Protect to the test – in your environment, with your data, and your identity flows.
