Namogoo Technologies Ltd. is an Israeli cyber security company, with offices in San Francisco, London and Tel Aviv. It offers solution to protects websites from client-side injected malware.[1]

Technology

Namogoo’s servers scan pages and creates malware injection blocking rule to protect the website from unauthorized widgets showing up in the visitor’s browser, without permission from the website owner. The programs that cause injections are usually bundled within software the customer wanted to download or added to any other programs installed on their computer. These injections belong to an independent third party service that hijacks the web page and places its own ads as a way of making money.[2][3]

Client-side injected malware

Client-side injected malware (CSIM) includes widgets (product recommendations and deals), advertisements and spyware scripts that are injected into websites by extensions installed on browsers or through unintended software downloaded by an internet user.[4][5][6] This causes visitors to websites to suddenly view web pages not the way the website owner intended. Namogoo estimates that between 15–30% of internet users are infected with some form of CSIM.[7][8]
