Article of the Week |
MarkMonitor is an internet-based company that provides enterprise brand protection solutions and services. It was founded in 1998 and is headquartered at San Francisco, California, with regional offices and operations centers in London, Boise, New York, and Washington, D.C. While MarkMonitor's business purpose is protection against unauthorized use of intellectual property or web resources, the company employs techniques to avoid routine digital protection measures such as robots.txt files, to ensure it can gain access to web content without the consent of the owners. MarkMonitor robots also routinely scrape web sites without issuing referer fields which is considered a security risk as blank referer fields are generally associated with malicious attacks. |

What We're Working On |
Giving everyone a voice in the future of the internet is our mission statement. That's why we have started a campaign to translate a set of essential articles into other languages. We have a good start with Spanish and Chinese content translated by a number of generous organizations. However, we do not want to stop here. The internet is a global entity that deserves to be understood and utilized by all. If you can contribute to this inititative in any way, please contact us. |
