Abstract
A system and method for auditing network applications captures transmissions during a user session between a client and a server. An auditor capture filter captures and stores each request from the client and each response by the server to each request in an auditor storage. An auditor analyzer may use the captured requests and the captured responses to visually recreate the user session to thereby analyze what transpired during the user session.
Claims14
A method for visually recreating a user session in a computer environment including a client and a server, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving a request from the client at the server;
- capturing at the server the request and first environmental data associated with the computer environment;
- determining, by the server, a response to the request;
- sending the response from the server to the client;
- capturing at the server the response to the request and second environmental data associated with the computer environment;
- and
- visually recreating at the server the user session based on the captured request and the captured response.
A system for visually recreating a user session in a computer environment including a client and a server comprising:
- a communication link between the client and the server,
- a memory,
- an auditor capture filter capable of
- capturing the request and first environmental data associated with the computer environment and storing the request and the first environmental data in the memory;
- capturing the response to the request environment and storing the request and the second environmental data in the memory environment;
- and
- a display for visually recreating the user session based on the captured request and the captured response.
