Device fingerprint with AnyConnect embedded browser

Version Affected:  All Versions

Description:  

AnyConnect embedded browser doesn't create device fingerprint.

Cause:  

The issue occurs when Public/Private Mode option on the workflow tab is changed from Public mode only or Public and Private modes to Private mode only and AnyConnect embedded browser contains SecureAuthLoginsecureauthXX=PUBLIC cookie.

Resolution:  

Rename C:\Users\__your_username___\AppData\Local\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client\EBWebView folder to force clear the cookies and and sign in to AnyConnect again to set only SecureAuthLoginsecureauthXX=PRIVATE cookie as fingerprints work with PRIVATE mode only.

Special Considerations (optional as needed):  

Renaming EBWebView folder clears out the cached passwords/permissions/cookies.
