Microsoft Advertising
Microsoft Advertising (formerly Bing Ads) provides ad and conversion tracking through its Universal Event Tracking (UET) tag. ScanMalware detects it from the bat.bing.com loader and UET calls.
It is third-party tracking code, and the UET tag ID it embeds can connect sites run by the same advertiser.

How ScanMalware detects Microsoft Advertising
Microsoft Advertising 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 Microsoft Advertising is present, but how it is being used.
