A method is provided for identifying a compromised client device from a masquerading device. The method includes capturing a plurality of attributes from a network device connecting to a web service. In a specific embodiment, each of the attributes represents a parameter, and the plurality of parameters uniquely identifying the network device from a plurality of other networks devices. The method maintains the network device substantially free from any software programs associated with the capturing of the plurality of attributes. That is, in a specific embodiment, the method does not rely on installing executable code in the network device to capture the attributes. Based on information associated with the attributes, the method can determine if the network device is compromised.
