The effort supports the programmatic advertising needs for more than a dozen of large-scale publishers across Europe
MCLEAN, VA., September 23, 2020 – The Media Trust is pleased to announce enhanced integration with Xandr, AT&T’s advanced advertising company’s ad server, to streamline the analysis of publisher ad tags to ensure compliance with security, data protection and ad quality best practices.
The Xandr API integration allows The Media Trust to seamlessly pull tags and campaign details into our platform for real-time analysis and reporting on the overall quality of digital advertising campaigns. Publisher clients can also submit campaigns via email for pre-flight ad compliance checks. Using best-in-class digital security and compliance expertise coupled with thousands of real-world user profiles, The Media Trust executes each tag, associated creative and landing pages and evaluates the presence of redirects, bot propagation, celebrity scams, exploit kits, unauthorized data tracking activity, and more.
Supporting a range of formats (display, video, native) across desktop, mobile web and mobile apps, the integration with the Xandr ad server completes our goal of facilitating publisher tag collection via the most used ad servers across Europe. With more than a dozen mutual clients in France, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Switzerland, this integration will help publishers safeguard the user experience while engaging and monetizing audiences across the open web.
“We’re pleased to be furthering our relationship with The Media Trust to streamline the management of security and user experience for publishers” comments Marius Rausch, VP and Managing Director, Central Europe, Xandr. “This collaboration is enabled by Xandr’s open platform that our partners can integrate and innovate on top of, all of which is key to providing a transparent and safe ecosystem.”
“With malvertising more than doubling in the past few years and the promulgation of various data protection regimes, it’s critical publishers and their ad technology partners are aligned when it comes to ad quality,” said Matt O’Neill, general manager of Europe for The Media Trust. “This updated Xandr integration makes it easier for publisher clients to protect the user experience in today’s highly dynamic digital environment.”
This easy-to-use API is designed with flexibility in mind to meet the individual needs of our publisher client relationships.
