SPIES Lab, Computer Science and Engineering

Texas A&M University College of Engineering

SPIES Lab Research Featured in TAMU College of Engineering Spotlight

Posted on December 5, 2025 by Jimmy Dani

The Texas A&M University College of Engineering highlighted SPIES Lab’s browser fingerprinting research, emphasizing how websites are stealthily using browser fingerprinting to track users online. The study shows that clearing cookies provides a false sense of security, as websites link unique device signatures to advertising behavior in real time to track users invisibly. To combat this, we developed the FPTrace framework that exposes fingerprint-based tracking practices even under current privacy regulations like GDPR and CCPA.
