Hi zack...great questions! As you mentioned, the ASM can detect if a browser is "suspicious" but the question, of course, is "how does it do that?"
While the very specific details are in the secret sauce, I can tell you that suspicious browser checks are related to:
All of these checks have internal scoring mechanisms which ultimately lead to a value. If the value crosses a certain threshold, the browser is considered suspicious; if it crosses an even larger threshold, it is considered malicious.
