Facebook is tackling fake advertising with the help of digital security company Risk IQ.

Risk IQ monitors millions of Facebook advertiser pages daily and flags those that appear to contain malware or unauthorized activity.

“We are extremely proud that Facebook chose RiskIQ to help protect their users from malicious and fraudulent activity,” said Elias Manousos, chief executive of RiskIQ.

“Our platform’s global visibility into the user experience on Facebook allows us to provide the social network giant with the intelligence they need to keep users safe every day.”

Risk IQ is based in San Fransisco, but services institutions and platforms globally.
