  • Patent number: 11243784
    Abstract: A method for managing a trigger on a terminal device, and a terminal device are provided. In response to an operation (S301) of setting a trigger by an application program (181), a trigger manager (235) determines a triggering policy of the trigger based on a use habit of a user, characteristic information of the trigger, and characteristic information of the application program. The triggering policy is accelerating triggering, normal triggering, or delaying triggering. Different triggering policies are executed for triggers having different characteristics, to dynamically change timings for the triggers to trigger scheduled tasks. In this way, a malicious trigger configured to keep an application alive or trigger a task that does not match a true will of the user is prevented to reduce resource consumption, and a trigger beneficial to a system or the user can be triggered earlier to improve user experience.

  • Publication number: 20200387600
    Abstract: An attack defense method and apparatus for a terminal, a terminal, and a cloud server. Before a client application (CA) communicates with a secure application (TA), a secure execution environment such as a trusted execution environment (TEE) verifies scenario feature information, such as screen touch information, corresponding to a current operation of the client application, to determine whether the operation is an actual operation of a user or a hacker attack. If the operation is a hacker attack, there is no screen touch information. If there is a risk of a hacker attack, communication between the client application and the secure application is not established, so that the client application cannot run properly, and an attempt initiated by a hacker to discover a system vulnerability is blocked.
