Facebook Pixel
The Meta Pixel (formerly Facebook Pixel) is a tracking tag that reports visitor actions back to Meta for ad targeting and conversion measurement. ScanMalware detects it from the fbevents.js loader and its tracking calls.
Beyond tracking, the pixel ID it embeds is a useful pivot: the same ID reused across domains can connect a network of related — sometimes coordinated — sites.

How ScanMalware detects Facebook Pixel
Facebook Pixel is detected by analysing the response headers, HTML markup, JavaScript runtime and asset URLs captured when ScanMalware loads the site in a real headless browser.
From any scan you can pivot into related signals — JARM TLS fingerprints, ASN ownership and BGP routing, certificate history, JavaScript analysis and the overall security verdict — to understand not just that Facebook Pixel is present, but how it is being used.
