In an embodiment, a computer system is configured to improve security of server computers interacting with client computers through an intermediary computer, and comprising: a memory comprising processor logic; one or more processors coupled to the memory, wherein the one or more processors execute the processor logic, which causes the one or more processors to: intercept, from a server computer, one or more original instructions to be sent to a browser being executed on a client computer; inject, into the one or more original instructions, one or more browser detection instructions, which when executed cause one or more operations to be performed by an execution environment on the client computer and send a result that represents an internal state of the execution environment after performing the one or more operations to the intermediary computer; send the one or more original instructions with the one or more browser detection instructions to the browser; receive the result and determine whether the browser is a legitimate browser, or a headless browser, based, at least in part, on the result.

Systems for detecting a headless browser executing on a client computer

Techniques are provided for a security policy for browser extensions. A first pattern is determined that is present in requests from client computing devices when a first browser extension is operating on the client computing devices. The first pattern is identified in a first request from a first client computing device to a first web server system. It is determined, based on identifying the first pattern in the first request, that the first browser extension is associated with the first request. It is determined that the first browser extension associated with the first request is whitelisted with respect to the first web server system based on a security policy. In response to determining that the first browser extension is whitelisted with respect to the first web server system, a first automated response is performed that causes the first web server system to process the first request.

Security policy for browser extensions

In an embodiment, a method comprises intercepting a first set of instructions from a server computer that define one or more objects and one or more original operations that are based, at least in part, on the one or more objects; modifying the first set of instructions by adding one or more supervisor operations that are based, at least in part, on the one or more objects; transforming the one or more original operations to produce one or more transformed operations that are based, at least in part, on the one or more supervisor operations; rendering a second set of instructions which define the one or more supervisor operations and the one or more transformed operations; sending the second set of instructions to a remote client computer.

Management of calls to transformed operations and objects

Methods and apparatus are described for automatically modifying web page source code to address a variety of security vulnerabilities such as, for example, vulnerabilities that are exploited by mixed content attacks.

Mitigating security vulnerabilities in web content

A computer system configured to improve security of server computers interacting with client computers, the system comprising: one or more processors executing instructions that cause the one or more processors to: select, from the plurality of detection tests, one or more first detection tests to be performed by a client computer; send, to the client computer, a first set of detection instructions that define the one or more first detection tests, and which when executed causes generating a first set of results that identifies a first set of characteristics of the client computer; receive the first set of results from the client computer; select one or more first countermeasures from a plurality of countermeasures based on the first set of characteristics identified in the first set of results; send, to the client computer, a first set of countermeasure instructions that define the one or more first countermeasures.

Reverse proxy computer: deploying countermeasures in response to detecting an autonomous browser executing on a client computer

Methods and apparatus are described for detecting browser extensions. Specific implementations relate to configurable security policies and automated actions performed in response to the detection of browser extensions.

Browser extension firewall

Present example embodiments relate generally to scanning websites, wherein the devices, methods, and logic for the scanning comprises receiving interaction information between a user computing device and a web application of the website; dynamically determining an action to be performed to the web application that approximately simulates the user computing device interacting with the web application, wherein the action is dynamically determined based on the received interaction information; establishing a browsing session with the website; discovering the web application within the website; and identifying a vulnerability of the web application by interacting with the web application using the action.
