Embodiment Construction

[0023] Such as figure 1 Shown, in one embodiment, a kind of API monitoring method comprises the following steps:

[0024] Step S102, detecting whether the API permission invoked by the application program is in the preset sensitive API permission list.

[0025] Sensitive API permissions refer to the APIs called when the application is installed or running to implement some functions that involve privacy information, such as reading call records, reading geographic location information, monitoring user calls, modifying system files, etc. If the application program calls sensitive APIs to implement these functions, it will bring great security risks to the smart mobile terminal. Specifically, APIs used to implement these privacy functions are recorded in the sensitive API permission list.

[0026] Step S104, when the API permission invoked by the application program exists in the preset sensitive API permission list, corresponding processing is performed on the call of the API...

Abstract

The invention relates to an API (application programming interface) monitoring method, which comprises the following steps of: detecting weather an API permission invoked when an application program is operated exists in a preset sensitive API permission list; and when the API permission invoked by the application program exists in the preset sensitive API permission list, carrying out corresponding processing on the API permission invoking in a preset processing mode corresponding to the invoked APM permission. According to the API monitoring method, a sensitive permission related to private information can be effectively controlled to invoke, and therefore, the safety can be improved. In addition, the invention also provides an API monitoring device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of terminal security, in particular to an API monitoring method and device. Background technique [0002] With the development of smart mobile terminals such as mobile phones, applications on smart mobile terminals emerge in endlessly, and operating systems of smart mobile terminals usually provide various APIs. The so-called API (Application Programming Interface, application programming interface) is some predefined functions, the purpose is to provide applications and developers with the ability to access a set of routines based on certain software or hardware without accessing source code or understanding internal The details of the working mechanism. The application program on the smart mobile terminal can realize some specific functions by calling the API, for example, read the address book, read the geographic location information, read and write text messages, access the network, modify system files...
