Abstract
Systems and/or methods for locating and/or identifying individuals that use network-enabled client devices to access particular network resources are provided. In certain example embodiments, a system and/or method is provided wherein a software module (e.g. one or more worm(s)) is configured to be stored on a server device and transmitted to at least one client device connecting to the server device is provided. The software module may include logic to cause the client device to broadcast a signal comprising location and/or identification information associated with the client device. The software module may exploit one or more vulnerabilities of the client device to become stored thereon and/or to transmit the location and/or identification information, which may include, for example, a processor serial number of the client device, an embedded ID of the client device, components of the client device, GPS coordinates of the client device, a true IP address, and/or true routing information. This system may be helpful in locating terrorists who use Internet websites to transmit or broadcast terrorism related propaganda or the like.
