System and method for maintaining internet anonymity via client fingerprint

1. A method comprising:

prior to establishing encrypted communication using a cryptographic protocol between a client and a server:

selecting a targeted device,

editing a set of data components of a client hello message from a client device to the server during negotiation of a cryptographic protocol, wherein the set of data components are edited from a format of the client device to a targeted client configuration of data components of the targeted device, and

selectively enabling access to library components specified in the edited set of data components of the client hello message; and

performing cryptographic protocol negotiation with the server using the edited set of data components of the client hello message, wherein ongoing communication with the server conforms to negotiated cryptographic communication using the library components to facilitate translation from data communications of the client to a format expected at the server, wherein the edited set of data components establishes a client fingerprint for the targeted device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cryptographic protocol is a transport layer security (TLS) protocol.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein editing the set of data components of the client hello message from the client device comprises replacing the set of data components of the client hello message.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein selectively enabling access to library components comprises enabling access to the second cipher suite and when sending the data communications of the client to the server, cryptographically securing client communication using a library of the second cipher suite.

7. The method of claim 3 , wherein replacing the set of data components of the client hello message comprises altering a list of cipher suites, altering a list of compression methods, altering a list of client point formats, altering a list of client supported application protocols, and altering a list of client supported extensions.

8.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein editing the set of data components of the client hello message from the client device is performed through a library accessible on a computing device of the client.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising configuring a LD_PRELOAD module for the client; and wherein editing the data components of the client hello message from the client device is performed in response to execution of the LD_PRELOAD module.

11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving the client hello message from the client at a proxy server that is a distinct computing device from the client device.

12. The method of claim 1 , further comprising periodically altering a target client device.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein editing the set of data components comprises modifying to a synthetic configuration of data components.

14. A method comprising:

receiving client communication from a client device including a client hello message from the client device during handshake negotiation of a cryptographic protocol with a server;

prior to establishing encrypted communication using the cryptographic protocol, modifying a set of data components of the client hello message to a target client configuration of data components thereby generating a modified client hello message wherein the target client configuration of data components modifies a client fingerprint of the client device to a client fingerprint of a targeted device;

finalizing handshake negotiation of the cryptographic protocol with the modified client hello message and establishing cryptographically secured communication with the server;

selectively enabling access to library components specified in the target client configuration of data components; and

sending communication to the server by implementing cryptographic encryption of the client communication using the library components of the target client configuration of data components.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the cryptographic protocol is a transport layer security (TLS) protocol.

16. A system comprising:

a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more computer processors, cause the one or more computer processors to:

prior to establishing encrypted communication using a cryptographic protocol between a client and a server: select a targeted device, edit a set of data components of a client hello message from a client device to a server during negotiation of a cryptographic protocol, wherein the set of data components are edited from a format of the client device to a targeted client configuration of data components of the targeted device, and selectively enable access to library components specified in an edited set of data components of a client hello message; and

perform cryptographic protocol negotiation with the server using the edited set of data components of the client hello message, wherein ongoing communication with the server conforms to negotiated cryptographic communication using the library components to facilitate translation from data communications of the client to a format expected at the server, wherein the edited set of data components establishes a client fingerprint for the targeted device.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the cryptographic protocol is a transport layer security (TLS) protocol.
