Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Using physiological cues to measure data sensitivity and implement security on a user device. The method may include obtaining data associated with a first physiological state of a user engaged in a first activity on a user device, obtaining data associated with a second physiological state of the user engaged in a second activity on the user device, where the second activity is determined to be more sensitive to the user than the first activity, and where the second physiological state indicates the user's emotional response to the second activity, and implementing a security action on the user device based on the second physiological state of the user engaged in the second activity.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A computer-implemented method for using physiological cues to measure data sensitivity and implement security on a user device, at least a portion of the method being performed by a computer device comprising one or more processors, the method comprising: obtaining data associated with a first physiological state of a user while the user is engaged in a first activity on a user device, wherein the first physiological state of the user is based, at leas…
