Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a computer security server system located between the Internet and a client computing device that makes requests over the Internet, a request for content directed to a particular content server system; forwarding the received request, with the computer security server system, to the particular content server system; receiving code from the particular server system in response to the request; applying a security countermeasure to the received code to created transformed code; providing the transformed code to the client computing device; receiving a communication from the client computing device; and determining that software on the client computing device has attempted to interact with the received code rather than the transformed code.
