💡 User-Agent Analysis Techniques
Analyzing User-Agent strings reveals automated tools masquerading as legitimate browsers. Inconsistencies between claimed browser capabilities and actual behavior, impossible version combinations, and known scanner signatures help identify malicious clients.
💡 Critical Infrastructure Targeting
Attacks on power grids, water systems, and transportation networks have moved from theoretical to practical threats. Industrial control systems often lack modern security features, making them vulnerable to both targeted and opportunistic attacks.
