Google AdSense
Google AdSense is Google’s contextual advertising network, embedding ad units and tracking code on publisher sites. It is detected from the adsbygoogle.js loader and ad-slot markup.
AdSense and the related publisher IDs are a useful pivot for linking sites run by the same operator, and ad networks are also an occasional vector for malvertising redirects.

How ScanMalware detects Google AdSense
Google AdSense 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 Google AdSense is present, but how it is being used.
