Analyzing your Geomasking logs is important because it helps you identify any suspicious activity and patterns in ad clicks. For example, if you notice that a particular country or region is generating an unusually high number of clicks, you can investigate further to determine if those clicks are legitimate or if they are the result of click fraud.

By using Geomasking to hide certain geographic regions, you can also prevent fraudulent clicks from those regions, helping to ensure that your marketing efforts are reaching your intended audience and not being wasted on fraudulent activity.

In conclusion, reviewing your Geomasking summary and logs is an indispensable step in detecting and preventing ad fraud. By carefully analyzing your click data, you can identify suspicious activity and take steps to protect your marketing campaigns from fraudulent clicks.
