Brand Exploit Protect - Scratching

This article provides guidance on the Web Scraping Tracker for Brand Exploit Protect. The Web Scraping Tracker is a powerful web agent that detects threats targeting your brand in real time while the site is being orchestrated outside of your perimeter. The tracker is completely dormant on your website and becomes active, only when your HTML is copied to an external, unauthorized site. The Web Scraping Tracker uses advanced techniques to remain hidden from malicious actors.

This guide lists the Brand Exploit Protect implementation requirements, which are:

• The Web Agent must be implemented in the header of your protected domain's HTML.

• Do not use Google Tag Manager to implement Mimecast's Web Scraping Tracker.
