Abstract: Methods implemented on computing devices provide protections for sensitive information by outputting audio descriptions of sensitive information via a personal audio output device coupled to the computing device so that the description can be heard only by the user rather than displaying the information. Further protections for sensitive information may include displaying an input keypad on a touch-sensitive display in which key images do not include a visual indication of the character or value associated with each key, and outputting an audio description of the character or value associated with a user-selected key of the keys on the data input keypad via the personal audio output device so that the key description can be heard only by the user.
