Abstract: Techniques described herein generally relate to protecting information stored in a mobile communication device. In one embodiment, a mobile communication device may include a data security module, a control circuitry, a first memory unit configured to store a first information, a first battery unit configured to supply power to the mobile communication device, and a second battery unit configured to supply power to the data security module and the control circuitry in response to a trigger event. The data security module is further configured to activate the control circuitry to perform a particular action on the first information, such as at least a partial erasure of the first information.

Abstract: In one example embodiment, a remediating system may include a mobile communication device, to which an application is to be installed, and a remediator that may be configured to remediate the application and transmit the remediated version of the application to the mobile communication device for installation.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described for the secure live migration of virtual machines. The migration may take place in the context of, for example, public clouds. In various embodiments, by using a hidden process incorporated in a virtual machine's kernel and a trusted wireless and/or wired positioning service, a cloud provider and/or cloud user may be alerted about possible virtual machine hijacking/theft. The provider or user may also be provided with an approximate physical location of the platform running the compromised virtual machine for further investigation and enforcement measures.

Abstract: Techniques for detecting malware activity are described. In some examples, a method for monitoring executing software for malware may include monitoring behavior of software during execution. Based on comparison of the monitored behavior and corresponding expected behavior derived from analysis of the software, it may be determined that the monitored behavior deviates from the expected behavior in accordance with a predetermined trigger. An appropriate action may be initiated in response.
