Abstract: A system and method are provided for use with a mobile device. The system is configurable to detect unauthorized access to onboard sensors or information developed by the sensors or configured by the user. Upon detection, access may be denied or limited according to pre-set rules or user intervention. The rules may consider prior access attempts, time-of-day or current location in the denial or limitation of access. Access limitation can include limiting access to only dithered data or spoofed data in accordance to the rules or user instructions.

Abstract: An emission control scheme intended to limit the localization and identification of a wireless device to known friendly wireless networks. Use of an intelligent access control (IAC) on a wireless device allows the user or administrator control over the revealing of the wireless device to any particular network. Passive scanning allows collection of network information while passive device-based location and on-board databased information on the wireless networks allows localization to thwart network spoofing for unfriendly positioning and identification of the wireless device.
