Methods for detecting and mitigating abusive network activity based on versioned browser usage are performed by systems and devices. Usage values for network activity of legacy web browser versions are determined, where the usage values represent benign network activity associated with active instances of the legacy versions over prior time periods. The number of active instances of legacy browser versions is assumed to generally be monotonically decreasing over time, and thus a bound of benign network activity for each of the legacy versions can be estimated by associating an approximate percentage of benign traffic with a minimum past usage value. Current network activity is monitored to determine current usage values for the legacy versions, and network actions are performed based on current usage values deviating from past usage values according to the bound.
A method performed by a computing system for detecting and mitigating abusive network activity, the method comprising:
A computing system for detecting and mitigating abusive network activity, the computing system comprising:
A computer-readable storage medium having program instructions recorded thereon that, when executed by a processing system, perform a method for detecting and mitigating abusive network activity, the method comprising:
