Abstract: Some examples detect malicious activity on a computing device. A processor in kernel mode detects an event on the computing device. The processor provides a validation request on a kernel-level bus. A bidirectional bridge component transmits the request to a user-level bus. The processor in user mode determines that the event is associated with malicious activity and provides a validation response on the user-level bus. The bridge component transmits the validation response to the kernel-level bus. In some examples, the processor in user mode receives security-relevant information from a system service of the computing device, and analyzes the event based at least in part on the security-relevant information. In some examples, the processor in user mode receives a security query, queries the kernel mode via the bridge component, and responds to the security query indicating that the data stream is associated with malware.

Abstract: Techniques for conserving battery power in devices are provided. One or more deferrable tasks are queued for later execution. An initiation of a subsequent charging event for a battery of the device is detected. The queued deferrable task(s) are enabled to be executed during the charging event. For instance, the queued deferrable task(s) may be enabled to be executed if the charging event is predicted to be a long duration charging event, such as by referring to a charging profile of the mobile device. In this manner, battery power is conserved while the device is in use and not connected to a battery charger.
