Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for generating unique identifiers for devices are disclosed. In some implementations, a set of characteristics of a device is received. The set of characteristics identifies an operating system (OS) and a manufacturer of the device. Whether the set of characteristics also includes a first identifier of the device is determined. The first identifier uniquely identifies the device among devices of a same OS and a same manufacturer as the device. Upon determining the set of characteristics includes the first identifier, a unique ID for the device is generated based on the OS of the device, the manufacturer of the device, and the first identifier. Upon determining the set of characteristics lacks the first identifier, a second identifier associated with the device is received. The unique ID is generated based on the OS of the device, the manufacturer of the device, and the second identifier.
