Protection modes: Basic, Balanced, Aggressive

Basic (green)

Highest threshold. Blocks only clearly fake clicks. Lowest false-block risk. Ideal for beginners.

Balanced (blue)

Recommended default. IP firewall and audience exclusion are on. The right balance for most businesses.

Aggressive (red)

Lowest threshold. Hard rules turn on: block on 2nd same-day click, instant datacenter-IP block. For accounts under heavy attack.

Sensitivity fine-tune

Within each mode, a 1-10 sensitivity loosens or tightens the blocking threshold. It doesn't change the mode's rules, only shifts the line.
