How do I add Fraud Detection to a Qualtrics survey?

Bots may complete surveys en masse or a person will take surveys on behalf of someone else multiple times. Qualtrics has security settings that track these patterns, so you can ensure your surveys are collecting only the highest quality of data. You can enable Prevent multiple submissions, Bot detection, Security scan monitor, and RelevantID all in the same survey.

Instructions

In a Qualtrics survey:

  1. Navigate to the Survey Options area.

  2. Select Security.

  3. Scroll down toggle On the desired security features

    • Prevent multiple submissions: allows you to detect and deter duplicates

    • Bot detection: allows you to track which responses are likely bots

    • Security scan monitor: allows you to prevent email scanning software from inadvertently starting a survey session.

    • RelevantID: assesses respondent metadata to determine the likelihood that the same respondent is answering over and over.
