Abstract
Example embodiments of the present invention provide a method, an apparatus and a computer program product for cookie anonymization and rejection. The method includes receiving a cookie included in a data stream transmitted from a source intended for a destination. A lexical analysis of the cookie included in the data stream is then performed to determine state information associated with the cookie. The state information associated with the cookie then may be forwarded to the destination according to the lexical analysis. Example embodiments of the present invention specifically targets cookies and beacons that flow through a system, and historically track cookie and beacon traffic in order to perform drill-down inspection on the contents. This inspection allows for detection of sensitive information such as credit cards, location, and any other personal info, as well as the potential presence of malware which is performing unusual behavior within the private system.
