JP6938579B2 - Mobile device privacy protection methods and devices, as well as mobile devices - Google Patents

Description

The present disclosure relates to the terminal field, particularly to privacy protection methods and devices for mobile terminals, and mobile terminals.

As technology and interpersonal communication evolve, mobile devices have become an important tool for people's communication. Mobile devices are generally personal items, but for reasons such as interpersonal relationships, difficulty refusing, or courtesy, people cannot completely prevent mobile devices from being used by others. Many people's privacy exists on mobile devices, including short message service messages, contacts, call logs, photos, and instant message messages. People expect privacy to be protected when mobile devices are used by others. To solve the privacy protection issue of mobile devices, privacy protection mode is set on most mobile devices, ensuring that it will be difficult for non-owner users to obtain privacy on mobile devices in privacy protection mode. do.

In another approach, the privacy protection mode may be implemented in multiple ways. One way is to return the virtual data when the application in the device is opened when the mobile device is in privacy protection mode. For example, in privacy protection mode, the opened album may display blanks or only public photos set by the user. The disadvantage of this method is that setting up the returned virtual data is relatively complicated and cumbersome, and is more cumbersome to set up for many applications. Moreover, if the virtual data settings are not realistic enough, this method will be easily recognized by other users and cause unnecessary shame.

Another way is to enter different modes by setting different authentication methods. For example, privacy modes and normal operating modes correspond to different passwords, patterns, personal identification number ( PIN ) codes, and fingerprints. Setting up this method is relatively straightforward, but in this method the user is generally prompted to enter a password, draw a pattern, or scan a fingerprint, so the user can easily recognize the mode to be used. Will be done. For example, mobile terminals are set to enter different modes according to different passwords. In general, entering the correct password puts you in normal mode, and entering an incorrect password puts you in privacy protection mode. In this case, the mobile terminal prompts the user to enter the password, and the lock screen can be released by the user who enters the invalid password. The user knows that the password entered is an invalid password, but the lock screen is unlocked, so the user recognizes that he / she has entered the privacy protection mode. Another drawback of this method is that you only need to enter your credentials to unlock the lock screen, and after unlocking the lock screen, you cannot enforce privacy protection when the user interacts with the application.

It turns out that other approaches are simple and efficient, and there is no way to protect the privacy of mobile devices that can be avoided from being easily recognized by the user.

Therefore, an object of the embodiment of the present disclosure is to solve the problem that the privacy of the mobile terminal is protected and the user easily recognizes that the privacy is not protected when using the application. , To provide privacy protection methods and devices for mobile terminals, as well as mobile terminals.

These accompanying drawings and textual description do not limit the scope of the concepts of the present disclosure in any way and are intended to explain the concepts of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art with reference to specific embodiments. It is something to do.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, illustrating the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clarify. Embodiments explain is only a part, but not all embodiments of the present disclosure. All features of the other without difficulty obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiment of the present disclosure are intended to be included within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

To fully understand this disclosure , many specific details are provided in the detailed description below, but those skilled in the art will appreciate that this disclosure can be implemented without these specific details. Should be understood. In other embodiments, detailed description of well-known methods, processes, components, and circuits will be omitted, and embodiments will be described without unnecessary ambiguity.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a mobile terminal privacy protection method and device for protecting the user privacy of the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal without being easily recognized by other users.

FIG. 1 shows a flowchart of a mobile terminal privacy protection method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes the following steps.

Step 101: Get the application start command.

The application unit in a mobile terminal may also sometimes be also referred to as applications such as album, short message service, and call log. To launch the application, the user may touch the application icon, and after the application icon is touched, an application launch instruction is generated.

Step 102: Actively acquire the biological characteristics of the user according to the application start command.

Further , in the implementation method of actively acquiring the biological characteristics, it is not necessary to prompt the user, the biological characteristics of the user can be acquired without the permission of the user, and when the input command of the biological characteristics of the user is not acquired, the user Biological characteristics can be acquired. The method of actively acquiring is relatively inconspicuous and is not easily recognized by the user.

Step 103: If the user's acquired biometric features match the preset biometric features, display the encrypted and unencrypted content list for the corresponding application.

The application's encrypted content list is generated according to the application's encrypted content, the application's unencrypted content list is generated according to the application's unencrypted content, and the application's encrypted content is retrieved by the user. This content is not presented when the biological features do not match the preset biological features. In summary, the encrypted content may be content that the user does not want to show to other users and may have a password set.

The user may set specific content in the application unit to a state that may include an encrypted state or an unencrypted state. Encrypted content is content that a user does not want to show to other users. For example, in the case of photos in an album, the user may set a password for the photos that other users do not want to see.

If the user's acquired biocharacteristics do not match the preset biometrics, the content not presented contains at least one element. The element may be text, an image, a video, or the like. Generally, one element is presented in the form of one entry. The encrypted content list may present the encrypted content in the form of a list.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the list may be understood in a broad sense. For different applications, the content list may be in a different form and may be a strip list or a block list. For example, if the application is a short message service or instant message program, the content list is a list of sender's phone numbers, such as the strip short message service message list shown in Figure 2. The list shown in Figure 2 may simply display the phone number or sender's name. If the application is an album, the content list may be a block thumbnail list of photos shown in FIG. 3, and both 301 and 302 in FIG. 3 are photo thumbnails. If the application is audio recording software or music playback software, the content list may be a file name list.

In the method according to the present embodiment of the present disclosure, after the application activation command is received, the biometric characteristics of the user are actively acquired, and as a result of collation of the acquired biometric characteristics with the preset biological characteristics, the confidentiality is confidential. When the content and the unencrypted content are displayed, the leakage of the user privacy on the mobile terminal can be avoided and the user privacy is protected. Furthermore, the method of actively acquiring biological characteristics cannot be easily recognized by the user.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the method follows step 103 and after the step of actively acquiring the biometrics of the user.
If the user's biometrics are not acquired, the step to display the application's unencrypted content list, or if the user's acquired biometrics do not match the preset biometrics, the application's unencrypted content list is displayed. Includes additional steps to do.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure , the step of actively acquiring the biological characteristics of the user is
It includes a step of actively acquiring the facial features of the user, a step of actively acquiring the iris features of the user's eyes, or a step of actively acquiring the fingerprint of the user.

Fingerprints can be obtained in two ways. One is a method of acquiring a fingerprint using a special fingerprint acquisition device, and the other is a method of acquiring a fingerprint using the screen of a mobile terminal. The position of the fingerprint acquisition device of the mobile terminal varies depending on the different model of the mobile terminal. For example, the fingerprint acquisition part of the iphone is the home key, and the fingerprint acquisition part of the huawei mobile phone is on the back of the mobile phone.

The screen of some models of mobile phones may be considered as a screen fingerprint acquisition device, and the user's fingerprint may be acquired directly by the user's touch on the screen of the mobile terminal. Obtaining a user's fingerprint by touching the screen is less noticeable.

Active acquisition recognizes that non-owner users will acquire biometric features and use them for subsequent validation in order to protect the privacy of mobile devices and avoid possible shame. Can be prevented.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure , the biological feature acquisition unit may be a voice acquisition unit configured to acquire a user's voice.

In another embodiment of the disclosure, after the step of displaying the unencrypted content list of the application, the method
Using the touch screen of the mobile device, the step of actively acquiring the fingerprint entered by the user when operating the unencrypted content list, and
It further includes a step of displaying the application's encrypted and unencrypted content list if the actively acquired fingerprint matches a preset biometric feature.

If the owner is not facing the camera when launching the application, or if there are light or distance issues, the facial or iris features acquired by the camera may be blurred or distorted, or active. The fingerprints obtained on the camera are blurred. Therefore, subsequent collations can be very unsuccessful, and as a result, the owner has little access to all the desired information. In the present embodiment of the present disclosure , after the unencrypted content list is displayed due to the above-mentioned problems, the entry of the unencrypted content list is selected in order to avoid the inconvenience caused to the owner by misjudgment. Then, the user's fingerprint is actively acquired by the user's touch on the screen of the mobile terminal.

In one embodiment of the disclosure, after the step of displaying the encrypted and unencrypted content list of the application, the method
The step of getting the first instruction entered by the user to open the first entry in the encrypted content list, and
The step of presenting the content corresponding to the first entry according to the first instruction,
The step of acquiring the biometrics entered by the user according to the first instruction,
It further includes the step of setting the first entry to the unencrypted state if the biometrics entered by the user match the preset biometrics.

In another embodiment of the disclosure, after the step of displaying the encrypted and unencrypted content list of the application, the method
The step of getting the second instruction entered by the user to open the second entry in the unencrypted content list, and
The step of presenting the content corresponding to the second entry according to the second instruction,
The step of acquiring the biometrics entered by the user according to the second instruction,
It further includes the step of setting the second entry to the encrypted state if the biometrics entered by the user match the preset biometrics.

After viewing encrypted and unencrypted content, when selecting an entry in the list, the owner may change the state of the selected entry by actively entering biometrics, ie. Encrypted content may be set as unencrypted content, or unencrypted content may be set as encrypted content. For example, a user can open a photo in the privacy content list, and when the user sees the photo, touch the home key again with their finger to actively trigger a fingerprinting command, or touch the screen for a short time. Holds the screen for hours and actively triggers the screen fingerprinting command. After a successful fingerprint match, the photo state may be switched, and if the photo is encrypted, the photo state may be switched to the unencrypted state, if the photo is unencrypted. The state of the photo may be switched to the encrypted state. In the present embodiment, the method of switching the encrypted state or the unencrypted state of the application content by actively triggering the biometric feature acquisition command is simple, efficient, relatively unobtrusive, and easy for other users. Not recognized by.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the method is performed prior to the step of receiving an application launch command.
Steps to get the unlock command entered by the user on the lock screen interface,
Steps to actively acquire the user's biological characteristics according to the unlock command,
It further includes a step of displaying an encrypted application icon and a non-encrypted application icon when the user's acquired biocharacteristics match the preset biometric features.

The encryption application icon is an application icon that is not presented when the biometric feature acquired by the user does not match the preset biometric feature.

After the step of actively acquiring the user's biological characteristics according to the unlock command, the method
Further steps to display the unencrypted application icon if the user's biometrics are not acquired, or to display the unencrypted application icon if the user's acquired biometrics do not match the preset biometrics. include.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure , the step of actively acquiring the biometric characteristics of the user according to the application activation command is
Steps to get information about the geographic location and environment where your mobile device is located,
If the information about the geographical location where the mobile terminal is located matches the preset geolocation information, and / or if the environmental information matches the preset environmental information, the user's living body is in accordance with the application start command. It further includes steps to actively acquire features.

Generally, the user launches an application by touching the application icon on the mobile terminal. In the method according to the present embodiment, after the unlock command is received, the user's biological characteristics are actively acquired, whether or not the biological characteristics are acquired, and the acquired biological characteristics and the preset biological characteristics. Different application icons are displayed depending on the collation status. Applications that the owner does not want to show or use to other users can be hidden, further avoiding leakage of user privacy on mobile devices and protecting user privacy. Furthermore, the method of actively acquiring cannot be easily recognized by the user.

FIG. 4 shows a flowchart of the privacy protection method of the mobile terminal according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4, the method includes the following steps.

Step 401: Get the unlock instruction entered by the user on the lock screen interface.
