Sledenje spletnim uporabnikom z zajemom prstnega odtisa naprave : diplomsko delo

KURENT, ALEŠ (author), Bosnić, Zoran (mentor)

Sledenje spletnim uporabnikom je neizogiben del spleta. Različne metode sledenja so na spletu prisotne že od samega začetka. Najbolj uporabljena tehnologija, piškotek HTTP, je stara že 20 let, kot kaže pa bo na tem mestu ostala še vrsto let. Z razvojem spleta in spletnega oglaševanja so se spremenile tudi metode sledenja uporabnikom. Postajajo vse bolj agresivne, vsiljive in neopazne, zato so se problematike lotili tudi zakonodajalci. V našem diplomskem delu smo proučili eno od naprednih metod sledenja z zajemom prstnega odtisa naprave. Razvili smo sistem zajema prstnega odtisa in prepoznave uporabnika, ki ne uporablja piškotkov HTTP. Uspešnost našega sistema smo preverili v raziskavi na realni množici uporabnikov, kjer smo dosegli 98,7% uspešnost prepoznave.

• Title: Tracking web users by collecting device fingerprint

Abstract

Tracking of web users is inevitable part of the World Wide Web. Different methods of web tracking exist from the very beginning of the World Wide Web. Well-known and broadly used method of web tracking, called the HTTP cookie, is a technology that is more than 20 years old and it seems it is here to stay for many years to come. With the growth of Internet and online advertising, methods of web tracking are also changing and improving. As they are becoming more aggressive, intrusive and invisible, lawgivers started to tackle the rising problem. In our thesis, we have examined one of the advanced methods of web tracking, called device fingerprinting. We have developed a device fingerprinting system that can track and recognize web users without the use of HTTP cookies. Performance of our system was tested in a study on a real set of web users, where our system correctly recognized 98.7% of users.
