Abstract

A computer processor receives rules associated with applications installed on a mobile device, and collects declared intents of the applications prior to execution of the applications. The computer processor generates possible combinations of declared intents of the applications and collects, by an intent proxy during execution, information associated with intercepted intents. The computer processor compares the information associated with each of the intercepted intents to the rules, wherein a match results in a first violation. The computer processor compares the intercepted intents to the possible combinations of the declared intents, wherein the intercepted intents other than the possible combinations of the declared intents results in a second violation. The computer processor displays a risk alert for the applications associated with either or both of the first violation and the second violation.
