What Is TrafficGuard?
TrafficGuard detects advertising fraud across search, mobile, and other performance-media workflows, analyzing impressions, clicks, conversions, and invalid-traffic signals. Its Search product automatically updates Google Ads IP exclusions, provides campaign and organization-level fraud reporting, and blocks malicious IPs and devices in real time, while its mobile protection operates at click, attribution, and post-attribution levels.
Best for: Advertisers and agencies that want fraud detection and automated blocking across paid-search and performance advertising traffic.
TrafficGuard distinguishes detection-only from prevention mode in its Google Ads integration. In detection mode an account receives traffic analysis without exclusions; enabling prevention authorizes API updates to Google's IP exclusion list. Separate product coverage addresses mobile-app installs and affiliate activity, which makes campaign type and integration permissions central to the setup.
