Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A privacy control system is described herein for controlling dissemination of private information by a program. The privacy control system operates by performing static analysis to determine at least one flow within the program of private information, from a source to a sink. The static analysis is particularly configured to identify two types of flow, including: (a) an unvetted flow of untampered private information from the source to the sink; and (b) a flow of tampered private information from the source to the sink, whether vetted or unvetted. The privacy control system then prompts the user to provide a privacy control decision regarding the flow. The privacy control decision governs whether actual data or anonymized data is provided to the sink, or whether the program is terminated. A runtime system then runs the program in accordance with the privacy control decision.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method, performed by computing functionality, for controlling dissemination of private information by a program, comprising the following steps as executed on a computing device comprising at least a processing device executing instructions maintained by a memory: receiving an analysis-invoking event; in response to the analysis-invoking event, performing static analysis to determine at least one flow within the program of private information from a sour…
