Abstract
The disclosed technology provides for performing website anomaly tests by automatically checking whether a website is compromised by malicious code. A system can test dynamic behavior of the website indicating a functional user flow through the website. A set of rules can be applied against a log of the behavior and static code of the website to identify potential compromises. A first rule can be satisfied based on identifying patterns of plain text encodings in portions of website event data. A second rule can be applied to the portions of event data representing information transmitted from a client device to a third party device. The second rule can be satisfied based on identifying third party account information that is not included in a whitelist of allowed third party accounts information. A likelihood of potential security vulnerability can also be determined based on the first and/or second rules being satisfied.
