Overview

Ensighten is an enterprise tag management system and client-side security platform. Ensighten Protect monitors for unauthorized script injections and data exfiltration in the browser, while the TMS manages the loading and governance of third-party tags.

What This Script Does

  • Acts as a tag management container that controls which third-party scripts load and when
  • Monitors client-side script behavior to detect unauthorized data collection or injection attacks
  • Enforces tag governance policies (blocking unapproved vendors, restricting data access)
  • May set first-party cookies for tag configuration and consent state management
  • Provides a security layer that protects against Magecart-style supply chain attacks

Consent & Compliance

  • Consent Category: Essential / Functional
  • Applicable Regulations: GDPR, ePrivacy Directive, CCPA
  • Opt-in Required: No — tag management and client-side security are essential infrastructure components for website operation and security

Should You Block This Without Consent?

No. Ensighten provides essential tag management and client-side security functionality. Blocking it would disable the mechanism that governs other third-party scripts and could compromise site security. It is classified as strictly necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Ensighten require consent to run on a website?

No. Ensighten is an enterprise tag management system and client-side security platform. It governs which other scripts load and protects against unauthorized data exfiltration. Tag management and site security are strictly necessary infrastructure, not marketing tools requiring opt-in consent.

What is Ensighten Protect and how does it work?

Ensighten Protect monitors client-side script behavior in the browser to detect Magecart-style supply chain attacks, unauthorized data collection, and script injections. It enforces tag governance policies by blocking unapproved vendor scripts from accessing sensitive page data like payment fields.

How does Ensighten interact with ConsentStack?

Ensighten and ConsentStack are both tag governance tools and would typically not be deployed together. If Ensighten is present, ConsentStack can still manage consent state and signal vendor blocking decisions. Contact ConsentStack support to configure the integration if both platforms are in your stack.
