  • Device, method, and graphical user interface for manipulating user interfaces based on fingerprint sensor inputs
    Patent number: 11989394
    Abstract: Devices, methods and graphical user interfaces for manipulating user interfaces based on fingerprint sensor inputs are provided. While a display of an electronic device with a fingerprint sensor displays a first user interface, the device may detect movement of a fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor. In accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a first direction, the device allows navigating through the first user interface, and in accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a second direction different from the first direction, the device allows displaying a second user interface different from the first user interface on the display.

  • Systems and methods of analyzing a software component
    Patent number: 9336025
    Abstract: A particular method includes receiving, at a device, a request to analyze a software component. The request indicates a target operating system. The method also includes generating a virtual machine at a computing device. The virtual machine implements the target operating system. The method further includes executing the software component in the target operating system on the virtual machine and generating data indicating effects of executing the software component on the virtual machine.

  • Systems and methods of analyzing a software component
    Patent number: 9280369
    Abstract: A particular method includes executing a software component on a virtual machine executing at a computing device. The method also includes monitoring kernel level events of an operating system executing on the virtual machine and monitoring application level events of the operating system. The method further includes analyzing effects of executing the software component on the virtual machine based on the kernel level events and the application level events.
