  • Patent number: 10764860
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and software can be used to monitor resource access. In some aspect, an electronic device determines that an application attempts to access a resource on the electronic device. The electronic device determines whether the application is operating in a foreground of an operating system (OS) on the electronic device or in a background of the OS on the electronic device. If the application is operating in the foreground, the application is permitted to access the resource. If the application is operating in the background, a notification is generated to indicate that a background application attempts to access a resource.

  • Patent number: 10567416
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and software can be used to monitor the security strength of a connection. In some aspect, a request to connect to an application server is received from a client application operating on an electronic device. In response to the request, a connection between the electronic device and the application server is initiated. A security strength level associated with the connection is determined. A notification indicating the security strength level of the connection is generated.
