Abstract
An Account Takeover (ATO) threat detection system is configured to detect that a group of IP addresses is a suspected group of IP addresses (in that there is an indication that same potentially malicious entity is using a group of IP addresses to attempt logins) and automatically select a lower value that limits how many login attempts from the same IP address are permitted during a predetermined period of time before a login request from the suspected group of IP address is no longer accepted for processing. The limit that is used to restrict login attempts from a single IP address is set to be lower than a solo threshold value.
