Abstract

Techniques for using a network analyzer device connected to a network include (a) sniffing packets traversing the network between a web-based application server and a user machine, the user machine being operated by a user, (b) analyzing the sniffed packets to extract event information relating to interaction events between the user machine and the web-based application server, and (c) sending the extracted event information to an authentication server for risk-based authentication of the user.
