Abuse Control Engineering (ACE) is Stripe’s rapid-response technical defense and control incubator. When urgent abuse vectors emerge, ACE bridges the gap using real attacker telemetry to prototype, test, and deploy software safeguards before vulnerabilities can be exploited at scale. We partner closely with Fraud, Risk and Product Engineering to run rigorous experiments, balancing aggressive risk mitigation against legitimate user conversion. Operating as both a strike team and an incubator, ACE builds automated regression suites in partnership with Abuse Research to permanently block threat recurrence and seamlessly transfers mature controls to long-term product owners across Stripe.
