Abstract

Technology related to a network application firewall is disclosed. In one example, a method includes intercepting a response from a network application and destined for a client. The response can be associated with a user identifier. A modified response can be forwarded to the client. The modified response can include a honeytrap embedded within the intercepted response. Engagement with the honeytrap can be detected in a subsequent request to the network application. In response to detecting the engagement with the honeytrap, an indication that the user identifier is malicious can be stored.
