Application access control method and device

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides an application access control method and an application access control device. The method comprises the steps of when a system service receives an application access request of any application, calling a pre-registered private service in a system service list; when the application where the private service is located is the non-private application, controlling an access interface, used for accessing the application, in the system service to shield the private application, wherein the private application is the application, requested by a user to be hidden according to a hiding request of the user, determined by the private service; and feeding the non-private application not including the private application back to the application according to the application access request. According to the method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the non-private application cannot access the private application in any case, thus the user privacy is effectively protected, and the security is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application belongs to the field of electronic technology, and in particular relates to an application access control method and device. Background technique [0002] With the development of electronic technology, electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers are becoming more and more popular, and their functions are becoming more and more powerful. Many applications can be installed in electronic devices to meet different needs of users. [0003] In order to protect user privacy, the user may also hide certain applications as private applications in the electronic device. In the prior art, the application hiding method is usually to hide the private application from the desktop of the electronic device, that is, to shield the private application from the desktop application, so that the private application cannot be found on the desktop of the electronic device. [0004] However, the inventor found in research that in ac...

In the prior art, the application hiding method is usually to hide the private application from the desktop of the electronic device, that is, to shield the private application from the desktop application, so that the private application cannot be found on the desktop of the electronic device

[0004] However, the inventor found in the research that in actual applications, there is mutual access between applications, and any application may call other applications when it is running.

Although the private application cannot be found on the desktop, when accessed by other applications, the private application will still be called, and the running data of the private application will also be obtained, so it is still unable to effectively protect user privacy
