Abstract

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