FAQs

Where does Asset WebScan search the images?

Asset WebScan should find any images that are public and indexed by Google. 

How fast does a scan pickup newly uploaded assets on a webpage?

This is dependent on the frequency of Google indexing the page, Google does this more frequently on popular pages.

Does the asset being scanned only return exact matches?

No, Asset WebScan will also pick up cropped images, varying image sized, and images with text overlaid, as long as it’s not too different.

Does Asset WebScan search social media?

Yes, It will return images from LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook and Youtube as long as these pages are publicly accessible and indexed by Google.

Will it find assets behind an SSO login?

No, these are not publicly available. 

Why does Asset WebScan give slightly different results when I scan an image twice at the same time?

Web detection services compare the image to a huge, constantly changing online index. Even if we scan an image back-to-back results can vary slightly because the service is spread across many computers, each with a tiny, momentary difference in its view of the web's vast content.
