support algorithm 16 (ed448) in DNSSEC
Recognising the increasing challenges in these times, would welcome the implementation of the Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) type ed448 for security and to keep ahead of the curve (sic.) on the cryptographic front...
interesting tool here too for those interested in checking out where they're up to with browser support (and to know the differences between the different algorithms): https://ed448.no/

Make Plesk Firewall add/change rules incrementally without restarting the whole service
Make Plesk Firewall add/change rules incrementally without restarting the whole service.
Now Plesk firewall reloads all rules in iptables when rules are changed in firewall (all rules are added anew). If there is a long list of blacklisted IPs or server is under a brute-force attack and there are a lot of IPs blocked by the Fail2Ban, adding/changing any rule via Plesk Firewall will cause server restart that is taking a lot of time due to a large number of blocked IPs.

Enable IIS option "loadUserProfile:true" for dedicated application pools
In Windows Server IIS, it is recommended to set loadUserProfile:true for dedicated application pools. Doing so guarantees better application isolation and security for web applications created with ASP.NET, .NET Core or PHP.
You can find some basic information about this setting in this Stack Overflow answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/17149834/1297898.
Official Microsoft documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/manage/configuring-security/application-pool-identities, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/manage/configuring-security/ensure-security-isolation-for-web-sitesI will be pleased to provide any additional information you may require.

Prevent users to be able to remove files from file manager
Add the possibility to prevent/block any file or directory removal from within the File Manager in Plesk by the subscription/domain users.
An example that could be applied is the same as it can be applied already for ProFTP config files as follows:
<Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/.cagefs>
<Limit ALL>
DenyAll
</Limit>
</Directory><Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/.cl.selector>
<Limit ALL>
DenyAll
</Limit>
</Directory><Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/error_docs>
<Limit DELE>
DenyAll
</Limit>
</Directory><Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/httpdocs>
<Limit RMD>
DenyAll
</Limit>
</Directory><Directory /var/www/vhosts/*/httpdocs/*>
<Limit RMD>
AllowAll
</Limit>

Apply SELinux policy for custom vhosts directory
Currently Plesk has predefined SELinux policies for default location of vhosts directory (/var/www/vhosts). If virtual hosts directory changed to custom one, it is needed to disable SELinux (set to permissive), for correct websites working capacity. It would be great to change transvhosts.pl script that policies for /var/www/vhosts will applies to custom vhost directory.

Disable old TLS protocols in Plesk for Windows
In Plesk for Linux, Plesk provides a functionality to select the SSL protocols available by running:
plesk bin server_pref -u -ssl-protocols "TLSv1.2"
Or meet with PCI compliance with the utility:
plesk sbin pcicomplianceresolver
Plesk for Windows doesn't provide such functionality, moreover, Plesk doesn't recommend to disable these protocols: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000360813
It'd be really helpful and safe that Plesk will provide officially the support of the same functionality for Windows, especially for companies that are requiring high-security standards.

Add "mail.example.com" (mail subdomain) in Subject Alternative Names when option "Assign the certificate to mail domain" is selected
Currently almost all mail clients (I used) need the server address to be in the Subject Alternative Names on the certificate, meaning if the configured address is "mail.example.com" instead of "example.com", that first subdomain is not present in the certificate, even when the option "Assign the certificate to mail domain" is selected when issuing the certificate.

Created Scheduled Tasks (Cron jobs) via Plesk GUI should be registered in the action log
At the moment the created Scheduled Tasks (Cron jobs) via Plesk GUI are not registered in the action log.
Also, according to /var/log/messages and /var/log/cron it is not clear what task was created, the name of the task and it is also difficult to understand was the cron task created or not.

Require domain TXT record verification before adding domain to Plesk.
Require domain TXT record verification before adding domain to Plesk.
Plesk need to implement an option to require domains to be verified like for example Let's Encrypt with a TXT record with a key value, that Plesk can check on an admin specified interval like 5 mins perhaps, with a self-cleaning feature that removes un-verified domains after X days.
So as Plesk administrator you can activate the domain verification option on subscription level, that requires the customers to verify their domain, when using the function "add domain".
So "add domain" should have an initial state of "awaiting verification" before it…

Block user access after failed attempts
It would be great to implement in Plesk a new feature.
When there are X failed attempts, in Plesk there should be the possibility to block automatically the access to the customer account (completely or for a certain period of time).
As per now, Plesk block the IP address via Fail2ban, but this is not the feature that we need. We just want to block the access completely or temporarily for the affected login.

Add Nginx Jails to Fail2Ban
Plesk has - praise be - increasingly better supported Nginx, now with the option to use only Nginx, which is great.
That being so, now we need the next logical step: The Fail2Ban Jails for Apache are available, but will have no effect, as Apache is not used at all any more. So we need some Jails for Nginx.
This is not exactly rocket science, there are plenty of examples to be found on the web, the Fail2Ban distribution has some, and here's an article on digitalocean:

Allow to register all let's encrypt certificates with a freely configurable ACME ID
Customer has around 2000 domains and hitting the weekly limit for the new certificates. All domains have different ACME IDs
Customer reached Let's Encrypt support and they agreed to increase limits but require to provide "his own dedicated ACME ID". This feature is required to get such dedicated id.
This is useful when a lot of domains were migrated to another server and it is required to secure them quickly without reaching limits.
