Does ClickSambo track IPv6 addresses?

Yes, absolutely. ClickSambo is fully equipped to track and analyze both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

To understand why this is important, here is a quick overview of the two systems.

A Quick Primer: IPv4 vs. IPv6

IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4): This is the traditional internet address system that has been in use for decades (e.g., 8.8.8.8). The world is running out of available IPv4 addresses.

IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6): This is the next-generation system designed to solve the address shortage (e.g., 2001:4860:4860::8888). More and more internet providers, mobile networks, and devices are now using IPv6.

Why Supporting Both is Crucial for Protection

As the internet transitions from IPv4 to IPv6, supporting both is essential for providing complete click fraud protection.

Comprehensive Coverage Ignoring IPv6 would mean missing a large and growing portion of all internet traffic. Our full support ensures there are no blind spots in your defense, no matter how a visitor connects.

Fraudsters Use Both Protocols Malicious actors and botnets are not limited to one system. They exploit both IPv4 and IPv6 networks to launch attacks. To be effective, we must be able to identify threats on either protocol.

Future-Proofing Your Defense As IPv6 adoption becomes universal, fraud tactics will increasingly leverage it. Our full support for IPv6 ensures your protection is robust and ready for the future of the internet.

In short, by tracking both IPv4 and IPv6, ClickSambo ensures there are no gaps in your defense, providing complete protection for all your ad traffic.
