Abstract

See full text

An app interacts with a human user of a user device that is executing the app while the app is also interacting over a network connection to an API server by making API calls to the API server and using the responses. An intermediary is provided between the API server and user devices/clients that modifies application programming interface interactions to disrupt automated attacks on those client-server interactions, at least as to those API interfaces that are known to be human-interaction API interfaces. The human-interaction API calls are disassociated to thwart automated attacks using those API calls. The disassociation can be provided through the use of user interface builder packages to provide instructions to the app as to performing human user interaction. Disassociating can be done by separating labels from their meaning, such as by assigning random values to the labels or other methods of obfuscating relations and structure.
