SignalBridgeAd Shield — Traffic Classification
Ad Shield detects and classifies suspicious browser and tracking-link traffic using IP, network, bot, and rate signals. It reports fraud-adjusted metrics with explicit classification coverage and estimates suspicious paid-click spend from unique ad click IDs.
Key Benefits
Everything you need to know about this feature
IP Intelligence Detection
Every click is analyzed against VPN, proxy, Tor, datacenter, and malicious IP databases in real time using composite trust scoring.
See Your Real ROAS
Get fraud-adjusted ROAS and CPA that strip out suspicious conversions — so you know your true campaign performance.
Suspicious Spend Estimates
See estimated suspicious spend based on unique paid click IDs and your configured average CPC per pixel.
Clean Attribution Data
See clean vs. suspicious conversions per source, medium, and campaign. Know which channels have the most fraud.
How It Works
Get started in minutes with our simple setup process
1. Event Captured
Every event processed by SignalBridge is automatically analyzed for fraud signals.
2. Multi-Signal Analysis
IP intelligence, ASN detection, rate limiting, and behavioral signals are combined into a composite trust score (0-100).
3. Fraud Flagging
Suspicious events are flagged, never blocked or deleted. Ad Shield only observes by default; you can opt in, per pixel, to keep high-confidence fraud out of ad platforms after previewing exactly what it would withhold.
4. Actionable Insights
Your dashboards show clean vs. suspicious breakdowns across funnels, attribution, tracking health, and tracking links.
Fraud Intelligence Across Every Feature
Ad Shield doesn't live in a silo — it enriches your entire SignalBridge experience with traffic quality data.
Ad Shield Dashboard
Dedicated fraud overview with daily classification trends, suspicious IP activity, detection breakdown, and suspicious spend estimates.
Funnel Quality Filter
Every funnel shows fraud-adjusted ROAS, adjusted CPA, clean revenue, and per-stage quality bars (clean vs. suspicious).
Clean Attribution
Attribution tab shows clean vs. suspicious conversions and revenue per source, medium, and campaign with fraud percentage badges.
Tracking Health Quality
Your tracking health dashboard shows per-pixel traffic quality scores, fraud rates, and VPN/proxy/datacenter breakdown.
Geo VPN Detection
Tracking links show VPN/proxy usage by country — verify that your geo-targeted campaigns reach real users in the right locations.
Bot Intelligence+
Admin bot intelligence dashboard enriched with IP country, ISP, connection type, and VPN/proxy/Tor/hosting/malicious badges.
Composite Trust Scoring
Every event gets a 0-100 trust score combining multiple independent signals. No single signal triggers a flag alone.
Datacenter ASN Detection
Known cloud provider IP ranges (AWS, Google, Azure, etc.)
IP Intelligence (FindIP)
VPN, proxy, Tor, relay, hosting, and malicious threat signals
Rate Limiting
Unusually high request rates from a single IP
Cloudflare Signals
Bot score, trust score, and JA3 fingerprinting (Enterprise)
