Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for varying soft information are disclosed. In an example embodiment, a security processor receives, from a transaction server, hard information to transmit to a client device related to a transaction with the client device, and soft information related to the display of the hard information on the client device. The security processor determines a variation of the soft information configured to prevent a malicious application from interacting with the hard information and determines the variation of the soft information does not change how the hard information is displayed at the client device compared to how the hard information was to be displayed using the soft information. Responsive to determining the variation of the soft information does not change how the hard information is displayed, the security processor transmits the hard information and the variation of the soft information to the client device.
