Abstract
A method and system of protecting network activity of mobile devices is disclosed. Specifically, the methods and systems enable the detection of surveillance signals targeting or potentially targeting a user's personal device and automatically triggering a protective response to safeguard the user's information. The proposed systems can provide mobile device users with a powerful security capability by enabling their device to automatically disconnect from one or more networks and/or emitting a protective jamming signal in response to the detection of nearby potential surveillance activities.
