Browser Fingerprinting

Browser fingerprinting is a technique used to identify and track web browsers and their underlying technologies. It involves collecting and analyzing data about the browser's configuration, plugins, and other features to create a unique identifier. This method is often used for analytics, ad targeting, and user tracking. However, it can also be exploited by attackers to track user behavior across different sites, potentially compromising user privacy and security. To defend against fingerprinting, developers can use techniques like browser sandboxing, implementing privacy policies, and deploying browser fingerprinting countermeasures.
