		Related Products Reflectiz Reflectiz is the AI-powered web exposure company trusted by hundreds of global organizations, including Cox Communications, DAZN, Village Roadshow, Leeds United, and lastminute.com, to continuously monitor and protect everything that executes on their live websites. The platform observes real browser execution, not configuration, capturing every script, pixel, and third or fourth-party tool as it runs, and using AI to detect malicious code, unauthorized data flows, and behavioral change the moment it happens. It deploys with zero code changes, zero agents, and no access to customer data, typically live within one business day. One engine powers four hubs, each answering a different question about the same website: Security Hub detects web threats that traditional tools like WAFs miss, from Magecart skimming to AI-generated scripts. Privacy Hub verifies user data is only collected and shared as authorized, supporting GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and PIPEDA. Offensive Hub runs continuous, agentic penetration testing at up to 10x the capacity of manual pentesting. PCI Module automates PCI DSS 4.0.1 Requirements 6.4.3 and 11.6.1 with audit-ready evidence. Together they give Security, Privacy, Compliance, and Digital teams one 360-degree view of web risk instead of four disconnected tools. Reflectiz's Exposure Rating draws on an intelligence database built from monitoring millions of websites, and the platform has been recognized with a 2026 Fortress Cyber Security Award, a 2025 Top InfoSec Innovator award, and G2 High Performer status. Customers consistently cite fast, zero-touch onboarding and hands-on expert support alongside the platform. 34 Ratings Visit Website Criminal IP Criminal IP is a cyber threat intelligence solution that provides decision-ready threat intelligence, and attack surface management solutions to security teams worldwide.

Fake clicks, bots and click farms are only part of it. The bigger drain is non-incremental traffic: excessive clickers with no intent to convert, and navigational traffic that would have found your brand anyway. All of it inflates cost and corrupts the data your optimisation depends on. TrafficGuard sits inside the advertising journey and verifies traffic in real time, before it reaches your campaigns. Our approach is surgical, not blunt force. Statistical invalidation removes the invalid and protects the genuine, with full transparency into exactly what was actioned and why. The result is cleaner signals, more accurate reporting, and ad spend that reaches real, high-intent users. One platform protects every channel that matters: - Search (Google Search & Performance Max) - Meta (Instagram & Facebook) - Affiliate - Mobile Start with a free 30-day audit in detection mode and see exactly how much invalid traffic is hitting your campaigns. Switch on prevention when you are ready. Backed by expert onboarding and responsive support, TrafficGuard is built to scale with your spend. Trusted by 10,000+ advertisers across multiple industries TrafficGuard is part of Adveritas, publicly listed and accountable on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX:AV1). 89 Ratings Visit Website
About The CardinalOps platform is an AI-powered threat exposure management solution designed to provide organizations with an integrated view of prevention and detection controls across endpoint, cloud, identity, network, and more.
