Abstract

Disclosed is a method of password protection applied to applications on mobile devices during a remote control session. When a mobile device is connected to a remote support technician providing said remote support technician access to the mobile device, when a user highlights a password field the password is contextually hidden on remote support technician's console. A toast message is displayed on the remote access console and the user's mobile device and the remote support technician is denied the ability to edit the user's password field.
