Device positioning method and apparatus

A device positioning apparatus, comprising:

• processing circuitry configured to:
• obtain a positioning request, the positioning request including a target device identifier (ID) of a target device to be positioned, the target device being associated with a plurality of user IDs;
• determine, from the plurality of user IDs, at least one target user ID of the plurality of user IDs that uses the target device to be positioned, the at least one target user ID having a greater login frequency than other user IDs of the plurality of user IDs;
• obtain a plurality of pieces of login information of the at least one target user ID, each piece of login information including the respective target user ID, a device ID of a login device, a login site, and an application ID of an application program, the application ID being weighted in accordance with a likelihood that the at least one target user ID is not forged;
• determine a target login site based on the plurality of pieces of login information;
• and
• position the target device according to the target login site.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program executable by a processor to perform:

• obtaining a positioning request, the positioning request including a target device identifier (ID) of a target device to be positioned, the target device being associated with a plurality of user IDs;
• determining, from the plurality of user IDs, at least one target user ID of the plurality of user IDs that uses the target device to be positioned, the at least one target user ID having a greater login frequency than other user IDs of the plurality of user IDs;
• obtaining a plurality of pieces of login information of the at least one target user ID, each piece of login information including the respective target user ID, a device ID of a login device, a login site, and an application ID of an application program, the application ID being weighted in accordance with a likelihood that the at least one target user ID is not forged;
• determining a target login site based on the plurality of pieces of login information;
• and
• positioning the target device according to the target login site.
