Client-Side Security for Media and Entertainment

Protect your media platform from client-side attacks and ensure content security.

The media and entertainment industry sees a significantly high rate of user logins and interactions. All this data is an alluring target for attackers. Specifically client-side attacks are used to exfiltrate these login credentials. Media and entertainment sites often use multiple and non-traditional advertising partners. These on-page ads are rendered by 3rd party JavaScript, which open the door to client-side attacks. Risks of breaches, ad fraud, malvertising and malicious redirects rank amongst the highest in these industries.
