Pixalate Launches “Made For Advertising” (MFA) Detection and Blocking Technology for Websites, Connected TV & Mobile Apps

New feature delivers continuous monitoring and rating of 100+ million web domains, CTV and mobile apps assigning a high, medium, or low MFA risk assessment

London, UK, Nov. 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pixalate, the global market-leading ad fraud protection, privacy, and compliance analytics platform, today announced the launch of “Made for Advertising” (MFA) technology to detect and block MFA websites, CTV and mobile apps. Pixalate’s MFA solution rates websites, CTV and mobile apps with a high, medium, or low MFA risk; this new feature is available in Beta across the Pixalate product suite.

Pixalate’s MFA detection technology models historical open programmatic transaction data across all apps, pages and URLs; an October 2023 MFA Pixalate assessment deemed over 15K MFA websites and apps high risk. MFA websites and apps can feature intrusive advertising techniques like pop-up ads, auto-play videos, or ads restricting access to content, often resulting in a poor advertising-to-attention ratio.

With the release of this new feature, Pixalate addresses the nuances of MFA in CTV and mobile apps by incorporating metrics beyond ad refresh and ad density to include the age of the app, invalid traffic (IVT) rates, user ratings, and popularity rankings. Pixalate uses statistical techniques such as Univariate/Multivariate Descriptive and Gaussian curve analysis to assign high, medium, or low MFA risk to websites, CTV, and mobile apps.

Pixalate’s MFA risk assessment technology uses the following data points, enabling ad buyers to adjust their MFA risk threshold:

Connected TV App MFA Risk Definition and Criteria

MFA Risk: Pixalate’s assessment of the risk (High, Medium or Low) of the CTV app being deemed MFA
- Ad Refresh Rate: Number of ad impressions observed per device, per hour
- Age: Age of the app on the App Store
- IVT: IVT% of the App across regions
- Popularity Score: Pixalate’s popularity score for the app
- Reviews: Number of Reviews

Mobile App MFA Risk Definition and Criteria

MFA Risk: Pixalate’s assessment of the risk (High, Medium or Low) of the mobile app being deemed MFA
- Ad Refresh Rate: Number of ad impressions observed per device per hour
- Age: Age of the app on the App Store
- IVT: IVT% of the app across regions
- Popularity: Pixalate’s popularity score for the app
- Reviews: Number of Reviews

Website MFA Risk Definition and Criteria

MFA Risk: Pixalate’s assessment of the risk (High, Med or Low) of the website being deemed MFA
- Ad Density Rate: Number of ad placements observed per device, per minute
- Ad Refresh Rate: Number of ad impressions observed per device, per minute
- Paid Traffic Rate: Volume of traffic sourced via paid (ad) sources
- Social Traffic Rate: Volume of traffic sourced via social media

Examples of Made for Advertising in Websites, CTV and Mobile Apps:

MFA Mobile App Example: MFA observed by Pixalate in mobile app shows ads blocking the apps’ content, promoting unqualified clicks from users therefore impeding the implied app functionality.

MFA CTV App Example: Pixalate observed a MFA CTV app presenting small thumbnail-sized video ads instead of full-screen ads. The videos run back-to-back, muted, and constantly in a corner of the screen overlaid on the intended CTV content.

MFA Website Example: The example MFA website met Pixalate’s criteria for MFA based on the number of ad placements, ad refresh rate, and traffic source types.

MFA Detection and Real-time Blocking:

MFA Blocking Technology: Distinct Data Feeds for MFA mobile apps, CTV apps, and websites
- Segmented by medium- and high-risk
- Available via API or FTP for high performance and low latency
MFA Risk Assessment in the Media Ratings Terminal: Pixalate’s ad supply chain intelligence tool, the Media Ratings Terminal (MRT), now includes MFA risk assessments

MFA Reports in Analytics Dashboard: Pixalate’s post-bid analytics dashboard will provide clients insight into the impact of MFA websites and apps on their first-party traffic
MFA insights via APIs: The Enrichment API within Pixalate’s self-service Ad Trust and Safety API suite now includes MFA insights associated with the websites, mobile and CTV apps. Insights include the overall MFA Risk rating and the details impacting MFA risk such as Ad Density, Ad Refresh Rate, App Age, Paid Traffic, etc.

Akim Swedru MP reiterates President Akufo-Addo’s commitment to fixing roads sector

Mr Kennedy Osei Nyarko, Chairman of Parliament’s Roads and Highways Committee and New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament for Akim Swedru, has reiterated the commitment of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in fixing the nation’s roads and highways.

Contributing on the floor of Parliament to the ongoing debate on the 2024 Budget Statement and Economic Policy of the Government, Mr Nyarko said the Akufo-Addo Government was a government that was committed to resolving the many challenges in the road sector.

‘I know that the issues are many in the roads sector, and no one Government will be all to resolve all those problems, but it is about commitment. Mr Speaker, there are several of these roads scattered around the country that the Government is currently embarking on.’

He cited the Tema-Akosombo and the Tema-Aflao Roads, which had been awarded to contractors, adding that all these were roads which were abandoned by previous Governments and that these roads over the years had become deplorable or
death traps.

‘If you have a government who says even irrespective of the difficulties that we are going through as a country it is still committed and still investing heavily into the sector, then we must applaud the Government but not to overly criticise the Government, make all comments that are unpalatable about the Government,’ he stated.

He reiterated that the NPP Government was committed to resolving the challenges facing the roads sector for the people of Ghana.

He said the NPP Government was a government that the good people of Ghana could trust; saying ‘we have demonstrated it and that is what I want to encourage everyone to support this Budget.’

This, he said, was because they were able to support the Budget, the government would be able to do more of these road projects.

Mr Nyarko lauded Mr Kwasi Amoako-Attah, the Minister of Roads and Highways, for his commitment in ensuring that most of these deplorable roads in the country were repaid.

According to the 2024 Budget Statement and Economic Po
licy of the Government, which was presented to Parliament on November 15, by Mr Ken Ofori-Atta, the Finance Minister, the routine maintenance activities of the Ministry of Roads and Highways, comprising grading, pothole patching, shoulder maintenance, and vegetation control had been carried out on 4,809 km of the trunk road network; 8,984km of the feeder road network; and 2,318km of the urban road network.

In addition, periodic maintenance activities comprising; asphalt overlay, re-gravelling/spot improvement and resealing works were carried out on 49km, 327km and 148km of trunk, feeder and urban road networks respectively.

The Minister indicated that the Government infrastructure programme would also be anchored on a strong private sector collaboration.

To this end, the Government would continue to pursue the Mining Sector Roads rehabilitation projects to improve the road network in mining communities.

In 2024, the Government would begin the formalisation of the agreements with the Mining companies and m
ining related industries to fund and commence the rehabilitation of Roads in the Mining Enclaves.

Selected communities include Takoradi Agona Nkwanta, Tarkwa dualisation and Tarkwa township, Prestea Bogoso and Bogoso township, Dunkwa Obuasi, Obuasi township, Ahwia Nkwanta, Manso, and Nkran Konongo.

Speaker requests Defence, National Security Ministers to appear before Defence Committee

Mr Alban Bagbin, the Speaker of Parliament, Wednesday asked Mr Dominic Ntiwul, the Minister of Defence and Mr Albert Kan Dapaah, the Minister for National Security to appear before the Defence and Interior Committee of Parliament on Thursday, November 23 to appraise the Committee on government’s efforts made concerning a clash between the Mo and Wangara tribes in the Kintampo North municipality.

He said: ‘As the first authorities to come to this house to brief the committee on Defence and Interior, this is an urgent matter that should be handled with dispatch. I think tomorrow should be okay for the two ministers and their commanders to appear before the committee early tomorrow morning by 0900 hours to brief the committee. It is an urgent matter.’

‘The National Security Council through their regional office should immediately intervene because the chieftaincy institution is one of the cornerstones of the peace and security of our country, and we hold that institution dearly. We will do everything to preve
nt that institution from falling into disarray,’ he said.

Mr Bagbin gave the direction on the floor of Parliament when he commented on a statement made by Mr Joseph Kwame Kumah, a National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP) for Kintampo North.

In his statement, Mr Kumah narrated that tensions had become high following the Mo tribe’s request to perform rituals in November and December, coinciding with the annual Klubi festival of the Wangara community.

As a result, Mr Bagbin urged the government to take immediate steps that would ensure peaceful coexistence.

Commenting on the Statement, Mr Samuel Atta Akyea, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) MP for Abuakwa South called for a resolution of the matter to bring lasting peace to the Constituency.

Madam Abla Dzifa Gomashie, the NDC MP for Ketu South urged the Minister for Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs and Parliament to intervene and protect the Constituents especially when chieftaincy was scared.

On his part, Mr Haruna Iddrisu, an NDC MP for
Tamale South advocated the Regional Security Council and Ministry of Interior to ensure an amicable resolution given the situation to provide peace and security in the area through the support of the House.
