Understand URLs and Website Behavior
RiskIQ URL Intelligence provides access to some of the most comprehensive insight into URLs and website behavior available. URL Intelligence utilizes RiskIQ’s virtual user technology to visit URLs and crawl web pages and HTML content. Every time RiskIQ crawls a URL, the platform captures the content and behaviors associated with that URL, including all HTML content, the resources related to the elements that make up the page code, as well as the behaviors of those elements.
By emulating the user experience from different locations around the globe, from different browsers and device types, RiskIQ can escape detection while sandboxing, capturing, and reporting on content and behaviors that violate your policies.
URL Intelligence can be utilized by advertisers to provide an anti-malware (also known as anti-malvertising) solution to automatically detect malicious content or resources associated with blacklisted URL in the advertising chain.
Because URL Intelligence has experienced the full HTML, components, and potential redirection that takes place when a page or ad loads, URL Intelligence enables automated detection of behaviors and/or content in violation of advertising policies. These types of policies may include redirection, rotation, encryption, size, and auto-playing behavior.
Overall, URL Intelligence enables demand partner monitoring of ads and markup associated with demand partners to ensure compliance. The platform provides the ability to report on violations per partner and overall partner health and reputation.
