Both Link Protector and the dtect Portal use the same dtect security technology, but they were built with different implementation requirements. Link Protector is the modern, streamlined version designed to replace the need for complex redirects and supplier setup.
Key Differences
| Feature | Link Protector | dtect Portal |
|---|---|---|
| Setup Time | 1–2 minutes | 10–15 minutes |
| Supplier Redirects | Not required | Required |
| dtect.id Parameter | N/A | Required |
| Redirect Logic | One-way (entry to survey) | Two-way (survey to dtect to termination) |
| Configuration | Simple form-based setup | Multi-step legacy project flow |
| Metrics | Streamlined and easy to interpret | Streamlined and easy to interpret |
| Access | Available directly in the Dashboard | Managed separately in the legacy Portal |
Why Link Protector Is the Preferred Experience
Link Protector was developed to simplify onboarding, reduce configuration time, and make dtect’s fraud prevention accessible to every team. It removes the technical barriers that come with older redirect-based workflows and eliminates dependencies on supplier infrastructure.
Teams adopting Link Protector benefit from:
Faster setup and testing
Simplified project creation in a single dashboard
Accurate metrics without redirect complexity
Broader flexibility to secure any link or form
Tip: Everything that mattered about Portal’s protection now lives inside Link Protector — faster, simpler, and built for how teams work today.
About the Legacy Portal
The dtect Portal continues to exist for legacy accounts that still rely on supplier-based redirects. New implementations should use Link Protector, which now provides equivalent protection with a more flexible setup and unified dashboard access.
