OVERVIEW

With our lives and habits being more than dependent on technology, it does not come across as a surprise that digital fraud and safety have become pressing concerns in today's interconnected world. From online scams to identity theft, there are many forms of digital fraud and this list is only expected to expand in the future. One of the significant components of digital fraud is ad fraud, which has a substantial impact on the advertising industry worldwide. This overview delves into the concept of digital fraud and safety, with a specific focus on ad fraud in India. It explores the implications of ad fraud on the Indian digital ecosystem and offers potential solutions to mitigate these risks.

Digital frauds are primarily driven by cyber criminals to gain financial or access to sensitive information. To battle these issues, people and companies will have to adopt safety measures and practices against these threats. An extension to digital fraud is ad-fraud. As India has become a key player in the global digital advertising landscape, ad-fraud has also seen a rise. From click fraud to impression fraud, and affiliate fraud, among others are some of the formats. Furthermore, some fraudsters create networks of fake websites or mobile apps to generate false impressions and clicks, while others employ bot traffic to mimic human engagement with ads. India's role in ad fraud extends beyond perpetrating such activities, as it is also a market where advertisers suffer substantial losses due to ad-fraud which includes wasting their marketing budgets and undermining the trust in digital advertising metrics. This year’s DigiFraud and Safety Summit provides a platform to talk about the impact of frauds across businesses and lives.
