CTV is a new breeding ground for innovative ad fraud

The CTV market is booming, and hackers are rushing to hit gold in this yet unregulated territory. Advanced techniques like device spoofing, traffic impersonation and app emulators are employed to embezzle millions of ad dollars every day from their rightful owners. These fraudulent activities adversely impact value and trust for all stakeholders.

Anti-fraud methodologies designed for the web don’t cut it in the CTV space, which is radically different in both model and technology. A new technological ecosystem where fraudulent operations are growing in scope and sophistication calls for new measures.

Block CTV fraud from your platform

ProtectedTV is an independent supply-side verification & authentication solution based on advanced cybersecurity and device interrogation methods that actively collect multiple signals from every transaction. At the core is a patented 3-Way Handshake that enables anyone to easily verify and authenticate all transactions. Once an ad is served:

Protected Media’s in-device integration collects parameters and internal data and sends it with a tamper-proof digital signature to Protected Media’s data center.
Pixels/beacons sent from the device are appended with the tamper-proof digital signature for verification and authentication purposes.
Anyone can easily verify and authenticate transactions by querying Protected Media’s data center.

ProtectedTV is easily integrated into your platform to effectively block malicious attacks and to prevent misleading sales of “CTV inventory” on the open market that leads to loss of revenue and reputation dilution.

CLOSE THE LOOP BETWEEN SUPPLY AND DEMAND

Protected Media’s patented 3-Way Handshake combined with an advanced technological stack, cryptography, network & computing core analysis provides deep supply-side insights about the validity and quality of any given transaction. Based on these insights, which are impossible to obtain from demand-side introspection, Protected Media then rolls out logic for new threats which dramatically strengthen demand-side protection. By closing the feedback loop between supply and demand, Protected Media develops demand-side verification methodologies that are unattainable in any other way. This logic acts as a power multiplier for the entire system.
