Introduction

How to deploy Centinel Analytica on your site and customize protection settings.

Before you begin

Prerequisites

  • Create your account in the Centinel Analytica dashboard.
  • You'll need:
    • your site key (public, used by the browser script)
    • your secret key (server-only, used for /validate)

How it works

Centinel Analytica has two parts:

  • Browser script: loads on pages where protected actions can happen (login forms, checkout, etc.) and sets the _centinel cookie for session tracking.
  • Server validation: your backend calls the validation API for requests to protected endpoints, then acts on the decision (allow, block, redirect, not_matched).

Quickstart

Configure the dashboard: define protected endpoints and copy your keys.

Go to: Dashboard

Add the scripts: load the browser script wherever protected actions can be triggered.

Go to: Scripts

Validate requests: call /validate from your backend and handle decisions.

Go to: Validation

Dashboard

Find your keys, define protected endpoints, and (optionally) enable crawler metadata in /validate.

Scripts

Install the browser script and wait for initialization before protected actions.

Validation

Call /validate from your backend and enforce allow/block/redirect/not_matched.
