Abstract: Data associated with a user account is stored at the cloud-based storage service. A portion of the data is associated with a heightened authentication protocol. A request for an application to access data that is associated with the heightened authentication protocol is received at the cloud-based storage service. The request may include an indication that the application is configured to interact with data with the heightened authentication protocol. The request is authenticated based on the heightened authentication protocol. In response to authenticating the first request, permission is granted to the application to access the data that is associated with the heightened authentication protocol. In response receiving requests that do not include the indication that the application is configured to interact with data with the heightened authentication protocol, data pertaining to the portion of the data with the heightened authentication protocol is hidden.

Abstract: A system is provided for controlling access to data stored in a cloud-based storage service. Data associated with a user account is stored at the cloud-based storage service. A first request to cause a portion of the data to be associated with a heightened authentication protocol is received. In response, the portion of the data is caused to require the heightened authentication protocol for access. A second request for a file that is stored in the area that is associated with the heightened authentication protocol is received. The second request is authenticated based on the heightened authentication protocol. In response to authenticating the second request, permission is granted to access the file. In response to a failure to authenticate the second request, access to the file is denied, while access to files stored in other areas associated with the user account is allowed.

Abstract: A system is provided for facilitating access to data stored in a cloud-based storage service. Data associated with a user account is stored at the cloud-based storage service. A portion of the data is associated with a heightened authentication protocol. A request for an application to receive data that is associated with the heightened authentication protocol is received at the cloud-based storage service. In response to the request, the request is authenticated based on the heightened authentication protocol. In response to authenticating the request, permission is granted for the application to receive the data that is associated with the heightened authentication protocol. In response to a locking of the data that is associated with the heightened authentication protocol, an indication that the data is unavailable is sent to the application.

Abstract: A system is provided for controlling access to data stored in a cloud-based storage service. A first request is received to access data stored at the cloud-based storage service, the data associated with a user account. The first request is authenticated based on a username and password associated with the user account. A second request is received for a file that is stored in an area associated with a heightened authentication protocol. The heightened authentication protocol is performed to authenticate the second request. In response to authenticating the second request, permission is granted to a temporary strong authentication state. The permission is to access the file that is stored in the area associated with the heightened authentication protocol.

The first request is authenticated based on the heightened authentication protocol. In response to authenticating the first request, permission is granted to the application to access the data that is associated with the heightened authentication protocol. The permission is time-limited. It is determined that the application is editing the data that is associated with the heightened authentication protocol. Permission for the application to access the data while the application is editing the data is temporarily extended.

Abstract: Dynamic video capture rate control techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a method is described of dynamically controlling video capture rate. Capture of video of a camera is caused by a device to occur at a first rate for a first collection of images in the video. During the causation of the capture of the video at the first rate, an input is detected by the device to change to a second rate that is different than the first rate. Responsive to the detection of the input, the capture rate is changed from the first rate to the second rate, the capture of the video by the camera is caused to occur at the second rate for a second collection of images of the video, and timestamps of the first collection of images or the second collection of images are transformed to configure the image in the video for output at a substantially uniform rate relative to each other.
