Pixalate has updated its AdFraud Indicators Of Compromise (IOC)-Database for April 2026, which identifies fraudulent or malformed Connected TV (CTV) bundle IDs in the programmatic supply chain. The database, based on Pixalate's MRC-accredited ad fraud detection engine, lists the top 50 highest-risk ad fraud indicators and is designed to help block high-risk endpoints in the ad supply chain. It is a publicly available, open-source intelligence feed updated weekly.
Key Takeaways
- The April 2026 IOC-Database includes fraudulent and malformed Connected TV bundle IDs observed in programmatic supply paths.
- Pixalate says the feed surfaces the top 50 highest-risk ad fraud indicators by impression volume.
- The database is powered by Pixalate’s MRC-accredited ad fraud detection engine, which analyzes 183 billion global data points daily.
- The IOC-DB also covers IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, mobile and CTV device IDs, datacenters, fraudulent Bundle IDs, MFA publishers, and delisted apps.
Why It Matters
For streaming and ad-tech operators, Pixalate is packaging CTV bundle-ID threats into a weekly blocklist that can be integrated without sifting through the full firehose of supply-path data. The broader play is open-source intelligence aimed at publishers, sysadmins, security teams, and platform operators that need to block high-risk endpoints across CTV and mobile inventory. The key signal to watch next is Pixalate’s weekly top-50 IOC list across all eight categories, especially any shifts in the bundle IDs ranked by impression volume.
