Security management on a mobile device
Example mobile devices disclosed herein include a camera, memory including computer-executable instructions, and a processor to execute the instructions to at least associate a location of the mobile device with picture data obtained with the camera. The processor is also to assign a first data tag to the picture data when the location of the mobile device corresponds to a first area, the first data tag to identify a first security level for the picture data, or assign a second data tag to the picture data when the location of the mobile device does not correspond to the first area, the second data tag to identify a second security level for the picture data. The processor is further to determine whether to permit an application to access the picture data based on whether the first data tag or the second data tag is assigned to the picture data.
1. A mobile device comprising:
a camera;
memory including computer-executable instructions; and
a processor to execute the instructions to at least:
associate a location of the mobile device with picture data obtained with the camera;
associate a time with the picture data obtained with the camera;
assign a first data tag to the picture data when the location of the mobile device corresponds to a first area and the time corresponds to a first time period, the first data tag to identify a first security level for the picture data;
assign a second data tag to the picture data when the location of the mobile device does not correspond to the first area or the time does not correspond to the first time period, the second data tag to identify a second security level for the picture data; and
determine whether to permit an application to access the picture data based on whether the first data tag or the second data tag is assigned to the picture data.
2. The mobile device of claim 1 , further including a sensor to determine the location of the mobile device.
3. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further to generate a data capsule to include the picture data and at least one of the first data tag or the second data tag assigned to the picture data.
4. The mobile device of claim 3 , wherein the data capsule is further to include a capsule identifier and an owner identifier.
5. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the first security level corresponds to a workplace security level and the second security level corresponds to a personal security level.
6. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the application is assigned an application tag corresponding to the first security level, and the processor is to permit the application to access the picture data when the first data tag is assigned to the picture data but not when the second data tag is assigned to the picture data.
7. A computer readable storage device comprising computer readable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a mobile device, cause the processor to at least:
associate a location of the mobile device with picture data obtained with a camera of the mobile device;
associate a time with the picture data obtained with the camera;
assign a first data tag to the picture data when the location of the mobile device corresponds to a first area and the time corresponds to a first time period, the first data tag to identify a first security level for the picture data;
assign a second data tag to the picture data when the location of the mobile device does not correspond to the first area or the time does not correspond to the first time period, the second data tag to identify a second security level for the picture data; and
determine whether to permit an application to access the picture data based on whether the first data tag or the second data tag is assigned to the picture data.
8. The computer readable storage device of claim 7 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the processor to generate a data capsule to include the picture data and at least one of the first data tag or the second data tag assigned to the picture data.
9. The computer readable storage device of claim 8 , wherein the data capsule is further to include a capsule identifier and an owner identifier.
10. The computer readable storage device of claim 7 , wherein the first security level corresponds to a workplace security level and the second security level corresponds to a personal security level.
11. The computer readable storage device of claim 7 , wherein the application is assigned an application tag corresponding to first security level, and the instructions, when executed, cause the processor to permit the application to access the picture data when the first data tag is assigned to the picture data but not when the second data tag is assigned to the picture data.
12. A method to manage security of picture data obtained with a mobile device, the method comprising:
associating, by executing an instruction with a processor of the mobile device, a location of the mobile device with the picture data, the picture data obtained with a camera of the mobile device;
associating a time with the picture data obtained with the camera;
assigning, by executing an instruction with the processor, a first data tag to the picture data when the location of the mobile device corresponds to a first area and the time corresponds to a first time period, the first data tag to identify a first security level for the picture data;
assigning, by executing an instruction with the processor, a second data tag to the picture data when the location of the mobile device does not correspond to the first area or the time does not correspond to the first time period, the second data tag to identify a second security level for the picture data; and
determining, by executing an instruction with the processor, whether to permit an application to access the picture data based on whether the first data tag or the second data tag is assigned to the picture data.
13. The method of claim 12 , further including determining the location of the mobile device based on a sensor of the mobile device.
14. The method of claim 12 , further including generating a data capsule to include the picture data and at least one of the first data tag or the second data tag assigned to the picture data.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the data capsule is further to include a capsule identifier and an owner identifier.
16. The method of claim 12 , wherein the first security level corresponds to a workplace security level and the second security level corresponds to a personal security level.
17. The method of claim 12 , wherein the application is assigned an application tag corresponding to first security level, and further including permitting the application to access the picture data when the first data tag is assigned to the picture data but not when the second data tag is assigned to the picture data.
18. The computer readable storage device of claim 7 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the processor to determine the location of the mobile device based on a sensor of the mobile device.
