Abstract: Protecting a mobile device from visual hacking comprises analyzing a displayed window/page containing data fields and parsing the fields to identify when sensitive information is displayed. Data from a gyroscope of the mobile device is used to detect roll and pitch viewing angles of the mobile device, data from a proximity sensor is used to detect a distance between the mobile device and the user, and a camera is used to take an image of the user and detect a number of faces visible in the image. The sensitive information is obscured when any predefined conditions are not met, including: determining that the roll and pitch viewing angles are not within pitch and roll threshold values, or that the detected distance is not within distance threshold values, or that more than a single face is detected in the image.

Abstract: Generally disclosed herein is an approach for enabling a substitute user to continue from the original user's saved participation state when the original user left an online multi-user event. The original user's state may be stored as a token. The stored token may be generated based on a plurality of parameters including, but not limited to, the user's role, achievement, skills, and position. The stored token may be sent with an invitation to multiple prospective substitute users. One of the prospective substitute users may accept the invitation by downloading the token. The accepted prospective substitute user may participate in the online multi-user event continuing from the original user's saved state.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to a field of payment transactions using a card that discloses a computer-implemented method and a system for restricting a transaction while using a payment card. A card processing server may receive card details, a transaction amount, a flag, and signature data of the payment card from a remote terminal upon initiating a transaction using the payment card. Further, the card processing server validates the payment card based on the card details and the signature data of the payment card and thereafter determines a value associated with the flag upon successful validation. The value associated with the flag indicates one of two conditions, e.g., a true condition and a false condition. Based on the condition indicated by the flag, the card processing server performs one of a first action and a second action related to either processing or declining the transaction.
