Blocks VPN / Proxy clicks that exceed the threshold of allowed VPN / Proxy on the same source/offer combination. This filter is also available for conversions.
Configuration Options:
| Option | Description |
| Threshold Percentage | Percentage of total traffic at which 24Metrics AdSecurity Platform will start to reject Proxy / VPN. When the threshold percentage is set to "0" no threshold will be computed and every Proxy / VPN Click gets rejected. |
| Minimum request count | number of clicks that has to be send before the filter starts working. This traffic forms the basis for the initial calculation of actual threshold. |
| Lookback Time | the time interval in the past for which the actual threshold is calculated |
| Check on Sub ID level | Calculates the percentage of proxy / VPN clicks for each Sub ID |
Setup Example
- Threshold percentage: 75 %
- Minimum click count: 100
- Lookback Time: 12h
- Check on Sub ID Level: off
In this case, the first 100 clicks will be approved because they represent the minimum request count.
The integration gets 74 VPN clicks and 26 normal clicks.
The amount of VPN now is 74% which is smaller than the threshold of 75%, so that the next VPN click will also be approved.
VPN clicks will be rejected when the amount of VPN clicks will exceed the threshold of 75% so that 7 more VPN clicks must be sent.
