Abstract
Techniques to facilitate passive detection of forged web browsers are disclosed herein. In at least one implementation, web traffic between a web server and a client is monitored, and a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) header transmitted by the client is processed to determine a type of web browser associated with the client. Attribute data points for the client are generated based on fields in the HTTP request header transmitted by the client and connection behavior of the client with the web server. The attribute data points for the client are then compared with predetermined attribute data points for the type of web browser associated with the client to determine if the client is a genuine web browser of the type of web browser associated with the client.
