Kevin Kwok · 2012
Abstract : Ever since True Names by Vernor Vinge, identity has been recognized as our most valued possession in cyberspace. Attribution is a key concept in enabling trusted identities and deterring malicious activity. This paper attempts to identify users in a non-adversarial setting based on behavior related to browsing by extracting navigational features which can be derived from a user's clickstream.
