D&B Protect pulls the power of the world’s largest set of proprietary commercial insights from the Dun & Bradstreet Data Cloud, which covers over a half billion private and public organizations globally and applies the innovative visualization of Graph Technology to map complex datasets and rapidly uncover relationships across diverse datasets, to provide a more holistic view of supply chains and their hidden risks.

Fueled by machine learning, D&B Protect uses Dun & Bradstreet’s globally connected predictive data to uncover the sub-tiers of a supplier network and evaluate and monitor critical risk areas. With this level of transparency, government agencies will more easily identify verified and disclosable associations between organizations and proactively detect any areas of supply chain fraud or foreign influence concerns at unprecedented speed and scale. D&B Protect also includes Dun & Bradstreet’s ESG Ranking Datasets, which help agencies perform due diligence when evaluating supplier compliance against several ESG metrics to create healthier, more resilient supply chains.
