Is this a good way of detecting site defaces?

If there are ads, and, they are random how will the screenshots work? Is it only a region of the screenshot that we run the detection algorithm?

If ads taking a big area, then the threshold can be bigger. Like, if more that 50% of site has changed, then notify you.

If ads showing a nudity or something, then it's not possible to avoid it.

However you just got me an idea! I can give user an ability to setup area of site which should be checked. Like, if the ads on the right side of page or something like that!

Thank you!
