Rich Kahn is Chief Executive Officer of Anura and an authority in digital ad fraud prevention with thirty-one years of experience in digital marketing. In the past 30 years, he created five multimillion-dollar internet companies, all self-funded, with one even achieving a spot on the Inc. 5000 list for five consecutive years. (he was even featured on CNN for his insights!)

Rich's venture into ad fraud prevention started with a personal encounter with its harmful effects. As co-founder of eZanga, a marketing company, he observed how fraudulent clicks and bots would deplete ad budgets and skew campaign data.

Inspired by this personal experience, Rich launched Anura, a standalone ad fraud detection platform that uses live monitoring and AI. Anura not only identifies fraud - it prevents it in its tracks before it can affect advertising results. In the past year, it exposed 1.2 Billion Dollars in fraudulent activity for its users. (a significant amount if you ask me!)

As ad fraud remains a significant drain on ad spend in marketing, it's increasingly crucial for advertisers to be alert to the threat and implement preventive steps to secure their ad budget.
