Infoblox Threat IntelStay alert! These disinformation campaigns affect all of us, no matter where we are!
Traffic Distribution Systems (TDSs) run by malicious adtech companies are seen delivering disinformation in different languages, tailored to the country the victim accesses from. They utilize subdomains to differentiate their content. The landing pages impersonate well-known brands and celebrities, aiming to deceive users. It's crucial to block these TDS domains and prevent any content they deliver.
Here are some examples of TDS domains that redirect to these disinformation campaigns:
