Abstract
A computer system for origin detection for webpage cookies loads a webpage. Loading the webpage causes a browser to store one or more cookies. The computer system creates a first cookie snapshot of the one or more cookies and a first initiator snapshot of one or more initiators for each cookie. The computer system then generates, from the first cookie snapshot and the first initiator snapshot, an initiator directed acyclic graph. Further, the computer system displays information, from the initiator directed acyclic graph, on a link between a particular cookie and a particular initiator.
