US Patent 9241004 Alteration of web documents for protection against web-injection attacks

A web document protection module protects web documents against web-injection and other malicious attacks. The web document protection module may be implemented in a user computer, a proxy server computer system, a web server computer system, or other computers. The web document protection module receives a web document, such as a webpage, and alters the web document to change its structure. For example, the web document protection module may obfuscate the web document to make it difficult for malware to find locations in the web document to insert additional program code. The web document protection module provides the obfuscated web document to a web browser for rendering.
