Aniview Partners with White Ops to Fend Off Sophisticated Bot Attacks and Safeguard the Integrity of Video Advertising

Leave a comment

Partnership Delivers New Avenue for Publishers and Advertising Networks to Protect their Inventory with White Ops Advertising Integrity via Aniview’s Platform

SINGAPORE, Feb. 4, 2021 — Aniview, a leading provider of holistic end-to-end ad-serving solutions for publishers, announced a new partnership with White Ops, the global leader in collective protection against sophisticated bot attacks and fraud. Aniview’s platform will fully integrate the White Ops Advertising Integrity solution to help optimize protection and ensure its customers’ safety from malicious and sophisticated cybersecurity risks. As a result of this partnership, publishers and advertising networks have another avenue by which they can access White Ops protection for their inventory.

The most common types of video fraud occur when malicious fraudsters misrepresent their display units as video inventory in programmatic exchanges. These sophisticated bots are deployed through malware embedded in software, essentially performing device-hijacking on a mass, organized scale. With the significant dangers ad fraud poses to the video supply chain, safety has become an increasingly critical issue and, as such, dangers are being met with innovative solutions.

White Ops recently became the first company to receive accreditation from the Media Rating Council (MRC) for end-to-end coverage against Sophisticated Invalid Traffic (SIVT) for desktop, mobile web, mobile in-app, and Connected TV (CTV). Working directly with the largest internet platforms, DSPs, and exchanges, White Ops verifies the humanity of more than 10 trillion digital interactions per week. With White Ops Advertising Integrity, platforms can tap into the most comprehensive pre-bid prevention and post-bid detection capabilities to verify the validity of advertising efforts across all channels. The White Ops Fraud Mitigation Platform uses a multilayered detection methodology to spot and stop sophisticated bots and fraud by using technical evidence, continuous adaptation, machine learning, and threat intelligence.

With this partnership, Aniview and its customers can leverage White Ops’ privacy-sensitive detection technology to identify threats and automated fraud attempts, ensuring their advertising inventory can be trusted and fraud-free. White Ops provides a deeper granular understanding of bot interactions and activity patterns to save time and money. Aniview is now able to provide its clients an effective solution to identify and prevent malicious video-bot traffic. This partnership represents the next step in Aniview’s mission to provide verified traffic and protection against video ad fraud.

Aniview’s end-to-end ad-serving solution includes a patented video ad-player, mobile apps SDK, seamless header bidding integration, high-performance ad-server, marketplace, CTV/OTT dynamic auction, and Server-side Ad Insertion (SSAI). Together, these components, coupled with the company’s machine-learning optimization algorithm, enable its users to manage, track, and monetize video content. Unlike other solutions, Aniview allows for customizable ad units alongside real-time yield optimization and currently services more than 10 billion video ad impressions each month. In September, the company was awarded the TAG Certified Against Fraud Seal, from the Trustworthy Accountability Group (TAG).

"The boom of online video content in recent years has created an urgency for us to fully secure and protect customers against a rising tide of ad fraud," says Roy Cohen, CTO of Aniview. "Working with White Ops and our internal fraud detection tools, we will develop greater application integrity by identifying and blocking bot traffic with the highest degree of accuracy and speed to stay ahead of adversaries."

"Fighting fraud and abuse in digital advertising requires a collective approach to protect the industry against sophisticated threats," says Ellie Windle, Vice President, Global Strategic Partnerships and Alliances at White Ops. "We’re excited to join together with Aniview in the optimization of fraud-free video advertising solutions. This partnership strengthens our presence in digital video while providing easier access to our platform for publishers and networks. The more partners that we have in this fight, the bigger our knowledge base grows and the better we can optimize our tactics against potential new threats from bad actors."

Datto Named to Ransomware Task Force by Institute for Security and Technology

Leave a comment

Representing MSPs, Datto joins Microsoft, Rapid7, Citrix, and other global leaders to combat growing cyber threats

SINGAPORE, Jan. 26, 2021 — Datto Holding Corp. ("Datto"), (NYSE:MSP), the leading global provider of cloud-based software and technology solutions purpose-built for delivery by managed service providers (MSPs), today announced it was invited by the Institute for Security and Technology to join its Multi-Sector Ransomware Task Force. As a founding member, Datto joins other world-renowned experts in the fight against cybercrime and will represent the MSP community, focusing on the interests and needs of small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs).

"Cybercriminals learn from each others’ attacks by sharing information and continuously evolving their tradecraft," said Ryan Weeks, CISO at Datto. "All organizations – governments, enterprises, and SMBs – need to approach the serious threat of cyberattacks with the same collaborative concept. Working in silos against these sophisticated attackers is no longer an option. Threat actors have built successful businesses exploiting the fragile cyber defenses and recovery practices at many organizations. Only by working together across industries and sectors can we hope to make progress against these threat actors."

Cyberthreats, particularly ransomware attacks, are a growing concern to organizations across industries and the globe. The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting widespread shift to remote work, combined with the adaptability and sophistication of attacks created a perfect storm for a wide array of threat actors. In fact, the FBI claimed that cyberattacks have increased by more than 400% since the start of the pandemic¹.

"Security has been at the heart of Datto’s ethos from the start, both culturally and built into our technology. But we have learned that a focus on security is a lifetime journey and requires constant attention and investment. Entities must continuously raise their defenses and stay vigilant to escalating threats," said Tim Weller, CEO of Datto. "For these reasons, we are humbled to be a founding member of the Ransomware Task Force and to work alongside some of the brightest minds in arenas like policy making, law enforcement, and cyber insurance. We look forward to the conversations ahead, the policies we will influence, and to making cyber resilience more accessible to the MSP community."

MSPs are on the frontlines of a cyber war, protecting both their own infrastructure and the IT systems of the SMB customers they serve from threats such as ransomware. According to Datto’s 2020 Global Ransomware Report, ransomware remains the most common cyber threat to SMBs, with 60% of MSPs reporting their SMB clients were hit in the first half of 2020. As part of the Ransomware Task Force, Datto will help educate and empower SMBs to make cyber resilience a top priority in 2021. Only by taking the necessary precautions can SMBs avoid the costly downtime and disruptions that occur in the aftermath of an attack.

HGC brings hyperscale ultra-connectivity to 20+MW Hong Kong cloud data centre

Leave a comment

HONG KONG, Jan. 20, 2021 — HGC Global Communications Limited (HGC), a fully-fledged fixed-line operator and ICT service provider with extensive local and international network coverage, services and infrastructure, today announced the availability of its hyperscale-focused fibre optic network at AirTrunk’s latest hyperscale data centre in Hong Kong.

Asia-Pacific hyperscale data centre specialist, AirTrunk opened the doors of its HKG1 data centre in December 2020. Near Tsuen Wan, AirTrunk’s 20+ MW facility is strategically located in a key hub for international connectivity. AirTrunk converted an eight-storey industrial building into a world-class hyperscale data centre with a design PUE of 1.35 in record time to support cloud customers ramping up their operations in Hong Kong and the wider region.

HGC’s fully meshed and robust fibre connectivity is available to link the new data centre to others in the city and beyond into APAC, through HGC’s fast growing fibre network. Reliable service can be brought online within four to six weeks, and between two to three weeks for fast track customers. Leveraging the ubiquitous network and extensive portfolio of services, HGC links its home market with the rest of the world and carries traffic between internationally-dispersed geographies.

Being a major financial hub and technology centre, Hong Kong is one of the Asia’s most connected locations. With a healthy data centre landscape and a large portfolio of submarine cables, Hong Kong is set to remain a top choice for deployment by global enterprises. 

Think tank house Structure Research estimates the Hong Kong data centre market to grow at a CAGR of 13% to 14%, reaching $1.7 billion by 2023. A key driver behind this growth is the ongoing letting of hosting floor to hyperscale companies, especially large public cloud operators. Hong Kong has one of the highest concentrations of deployments by these players.

Thomas Lee, AVP, Global Carrier Data, International Business of HGC, said: "We have borne witness to rapid mounting demand for data centre to data centre network connectivity services in Hong Kong. The HGC fibre optic grid available at AirTrunk’s state-of-the-art facility is a solid and robust infrastructure. It has the ability to be tailored to each client’s needs, and has a specially designed SLA for hyperscale companies, including large public cloud companies seeking to expand in the region. With state-of-the-art network infrastructure, far-reaching connectivity and software-based capability, HGC is well positioned to capture widespread market opportunities arising in the digital economy."
