METHODS, SYSTEMS AND MEDIA FOR DETECTING NON-INTENDED TRAFFIC USING CO-VISITATION INFORMATION
First Claim
1. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor, the code to cause the processor to:
- receive a first data associated with access by a first plurality of entities to a first website location;
receive a second data associated with access by a second plurality of entities to a second website location;
define a percentage of total entities in the first plurality of entities and the second plurality of entities that accessed both of the first website location and the second website location based, at least in part, on the first data and the second data;
define a co-visitation factor for each of the first website location and the second website location based, at least in part, on the percentage of total entitles;
send a signal indicating the first website location is a suspicious website location when the co-visitation factor for the first website locations over a predefined threshold;
send a single indicating the second website location is a suspicious website location when the co-visitation factor for the second website location is over the predefined threshold.

Abstract
A non-transitory processor-readable medium is provided that stores code representing instructions to be executed by a processor to receive data associated with access by a first plurality of entities to a first website location and to receive data associated with access by a second plurality of entities to a second website location. The processor is also caused to define a co-visitation factor for each of the first website location and the second website location based on the received data. The processor is also caused to, if the co-visitation factor of the first website location and/or the co-visitation factor of the second website location is over a predefined threshold, select the first website location and/or the second website location as target website locations. The processor is caused to send a signal to set a flag associated with each target website location indicating the target website location as a suspicious website location.

-
receive data associated with access by a plurality of entities to a first plurality of website locations; define a co-visitation factor for each website location from the first plurality of website locations based, at least in part, on the data; select a second plurality of website locations from the first plurality of website locations, the co-visitation factor for each website location from the second plurality of website locations being over a predefined threshold; select a third plurality of website locations from the second plurality of website locations, each website location from the third plurality of website locations being associated with a common publisher; and send a signal indicating the common publisher is a suspicious publisher. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor, the code to cause the processor to:
-
receive data associated with access by a plurality of entities to a plurality of website locations; calculate, for each website location from the plurality of website locations, a number of entities in the plurality of entities that accessed that website location and at least one other website locations from the plurality of website locations based, at least in part, on the data; and send, for each website location from the plurality of website locations for which the number of entities for that website location indicates a likelihood of unintended access to that website location, a signal indicating that website location is a suspicious website location. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
