Methods for dynamic computer network fingerprint matching and devices thereof

Abstract:

Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, network traffic management apparatuses, and network traffic management systems that receives a client access request to access content at one or more server devices. Fingerprint attributes associated with the client device are collected and utilized to identify potential fingerprints. Potential fingerprints are identified based on the collected fingerprint attributes. Previously validated fingerprints stored in a database are utilized to determine when the one of the potential fingerprints matches with one of a previously validated fingerprints stored in the database. The client device is authorized to access content requested in the client access request when the determination indicates that the one of the potential fingerprints matches with one of the plurality of previously validated fingerprints stored in the database.
