METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETECTING FAKE USER INTERACTIONS WITH A MOBILE DEVICE FOR IMPROVED MALWARE PROTECTION

摘要

A computing device processor may be configured with processor executable instructions to implement methods of detecting and responding to fake user interaction (UI) events. The processor may determine whether a user interaction event is a fake user interaction event by analyzing raw data generated by one or more hardware drivers in conjunction with user interaction event information generated or received by the high level operating system. In addition the processor may be configured with processor executable instructions to implement methods of using behavioral analysis and machine learning techniques to identify prevent correct or otherwise respond to malicious or performance degrading behaviors of the computing device based on whether a detected user interaction event is an authentic or fake user interaction event.
