Summary:In some implementations, a method performed by data processing apparatuses includes serving a web page comprising an embedded markup image and a detection script. The detection script is configured to cause a client device to, in response to loading the embedded markup image, determine a current environment location indicative of a source of the web page, determine whether the current environment location matches a domain associated with a subject system, generate an obfuscated data payload based on the current environment location, and send a request to a predetermined endpoint in response to determining that the current environment location does not match the domain associated with the subject system. The request includes the obfuscated data payload.
