Abstract

A computer-implemented method for securing a content server system is disclosed. The method includes identifying that a request has been made by a client computing device for serving of content from the content server system; serving, to the client computing device and for execution on the client computing device, reconnaissance code that is programmed to determine whether the client computing device is human-controlled or bot-controlled; receiving, from the reconnaissance code, data that indicates whether the client computing device is human-controlled or bot-controlled; and serving follow-up content to the client computing device, wherein the make-up of the follow-up content is selected based on a determination of whether the client computing device is human-controlled or bot-controlled.
