Method and system for tracking screen activities
View Patent ↗Techniques to facilitate a system to capture, process, and archive a series of user interactive events and subsequently retrieve the stored user interactive events are disclosed. The captured information is indexed and stored for future access either on a terminal device or an accessible remote server device.
1. A computerized system for storing a plurality of image files representative of respective screens of content displayed on a mobile electronic device, the system comprising:
an interface for receiving a plurality of image files representative of respective screens of content displayed on a mobile electronic device, wherein the plurality of image files are captured in response to an interaction of a user with the mobile electronic device;
a storage device for storing the plurality of image files;
at least one processor configured to execute software modules;
a content analysis module configured to perform optical character recognition on at least some of the image files to generate text data associated with respective ones of the image files, wherein the content analysis module is further configured to determine at least portions of the text data associated with the respective ones of the image files that include one or more tagged keywords or tagged keyword patterns indicative of sensitive content; and
a security module configured to encrypt only the one or more unencrypted tagged keywords or tagged keyword patterns included in the generated text data.
2. The computerized system of claim 1 , wherein the keyword patterns include a financial account number pattern.
3. The computerized system of claim 2 , wherein the keyword patterns include a credit card account number pattern.
4. The computerized system of claim 1 , wherein the mobile electronic device comprises one or more of a cell phone, a personal digital assistant, and a personal computer.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the security module is further configured to compress the generated text data, including the one or more encrypted tagged keywords or keyword patterns.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the tagged keywords or tagged keyword patterns are tagged as “classified.”
7. A computer-implemented method comprising:
detecting user interactions with a computing device, wherein the computing device includes at least a display that selectively depicts content data, including one or more of graphical data or textual data, in response to at least one of the interactions;
in response to detecting respective ones of the interactions, storing a respective graphical image in a computer readable medium, wherein the respective graphical image includes at least a portion of the content data depicted on the display at about the time of the respective one of the interactions;
performing optical character recognition on at least some of the stored graphical image to generate respective text data;
determining whether the generated text data includes one or more tagged keywords or tagged keyword patterns indicative of unencrypted sensitive content; and
encrypting only the one or more unencrypted tagged keywords or tagged keyword patterns included in the generated text data.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the tagged keyword patterns include keyword patterns associated with credit card numbers.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the computing device comprises one or more of a personal computer, a laptop computer, a computer terminal, a personal digital assistant, a palm-sized computing device, a cellular phone, a two-way pager, or a computer work station.
10. The method of claim 7 , further comprising compressing the generated text data, including the one or more encrypted tagged keywords or keyword patterns.
11. The method of claim 7 , further comprising encrypting the entire generated text data in a subsequent process.
12. A computer readable medium storing software code thereon, the software code configured for execution by a computing device having one or more processors to cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:
detecting user interactions with a computing device, wherein the computing device includes at least a display that selectively depicts content data, including one or more of graphical data or textual data, in response to at least one of the interactions;
in response to detecting respective ones of the interactions, storing a respective graphical image in a computer readable medium, wherein the respective graphical image includes at least a portion of the content data depicted on the display at about the time of the respective one of the interactions;
performing optical character recognition on at least some of the stored graphical image to generate respective text data;
determining whether the generated text data includes one or more tagged keywords or tagged keyword patterns indicative of unencrypted sensitive content; and
encrypting only the one or more tagged keywords or tagged keyword patterns included in the generated text data.
13. The computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the one or more tagged keyword patterns comprise one or more of a financial account number pattern and a credit card account number pattern.
14. The computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the operations further comprise encrypting the entire generated text data in a subsequent process.
15. The computer readable medium of claim 14 , wherein the operations further comprise compressing the encrypted generated text data.
