Abstract

Techniques for detecting device type spoofing. The techniques include: receiving a communication from a client device different from the at least one computer; identifying from the communication an asserted type of the client device; and verifying the asserted type of the client device at least in part by: interacting with the client device to obtain additional information about the client device, and determining whether the additional information about the client device is consistent with the asserted type of the client device.
