Google’s ‘US troubles’ may have come to haunt it in the UK too – ET CISO

Google is facing mounting pressure from regulators on both sides of the Atlantic over its dominance in digital advertising. On Friday, September 6, the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) accused the tech giant of anti-competitive practices in Britain’s 1.8 billion pound (USD 2.4 billion) digital ad market.

The case comes as Google faces trial in a second antitrust case next week where the U.S. Department of Justice will challenge how the search giant’s advertising business has acted as a monopoly that’s led to higher ad prices for customers. For Google, the focus turns to its ad tools, which are part of the company’s $200 billion digital ad business.

The CMA alleges that Google has been using its market power to favor its own services, hindering competition for online publishers and advertisers. The watchdog’s investigation could potentially lead to a hefty fine or orders to change Google’s behavior.

Google’s digital ad business, which includes ad servers, tools for advertisers, and an ad exchange, is also under scrutiny by the European Union and the US Justice Department.

The CMA claimed that Google has been exploiting its dominance since 2015 to strengthen the market position of its own AdX ad exchange, which charges higher fees than rival exchanges. The regulator also accused Google of manipulating advertiser bids and giving AdX preferential treatment in auctions.

Google disputed the allegations, stating that it remains committed to creating value for its partners. However, the CMA has the power to impose a fine of up to 10% of the company’s annual worldwide revenue or issue a legally binding order to stop anti-competitive practices.

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
