Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to monitor media presentations are disclosed. An example method includes extracting first network packet parameters from a first network packet received at a media device when retrieving a first encrypted web page, storing the first network packet parameters in association with identifying information for the first encrypted web page, extracting second network packet parameters from a second network packet received at the media device from an unknown encrypted web page, when the extension does not collect identifying information for the unknown encrypted web page, comparing the second network packet parameters to the first network packet parameters, and identifying the unknown encrypted web page as the first encrypted web page when the comparison of the second network packet parameters to the first network packet parameters has a similarity above a threshold.
