Cognitively hiding sensitive content on a computing device

A computer system for automatically detecting and concealing content associated with an incoming notification on a computing device, comprising:

• one or more processors, one or more computer-readable memories, one or more computer-readable tangible storage devices, and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more computer-readable tangible storage devices for execution by at least one of the one or more processors via at least one of the one or more computer-readable memories, wherein the computer system is capable of performing a method comprising:
• in response to receiving the incoming notification, extracting and categorizing different parts of the incoming notification, and identifying features associated with each of the different parts, wherein the different parts comprise at least one sender, a time, and the content within the incoming notification;
• classifying different parts of the content within the incoming notification based on a class coding system and identifying one or more instructions associated with each classification;
• identifying and detecting user behavior with respect to similar notifications, and similar content within the similar notifications, that are associated with or related to the incoming notification, and determining user actions performed on the similar notifications;
• automatically determining whether to conceal, partially conceal, or display on the computing device the content within the incoming notification based on the identified features associated with the different parts of the incoming notification, the one or more instructions associated with each classification of the different parts of the content within the incoming notification, and the detected user behavior with respect to the similar notifications and the similar content within the similar notifications;
• and
• presenting the incoming notification on the computing device according to the automatic determination whether to conceal, partially conceal, or display the content within the incoming notification.

A computer program product for automatically detecting and concealing content associated with an incoming notification on a computing device, comprising:

• one or more tangible computer-readable storage devices and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more tangible computer-readable storage devices, the program instructions executable by a processor, the program instructions comprising:
• in response to receiving the incoming notification, program instructions to extract and categorize different parts of the incoming notification, and identify features associated with each of the different parts, wherein the different parts comprise at least one sender, a time, and the content within the incoming notification;
• program instructions to classify different parts of the content within the incoming notification based on a class coding system and identify one or more instructions associated with each classification;
• program instructions to identify and detect user behavior with respect to similar notifications, and similar content within the similar notifications, that are associated with or related to the incoming notification, and determine user actions performed on the similar notifications;
• program instructions to automatically determine whether to conceal, partially conceal, or display on the computing device the content within the incoming notification based on the identified features associated with the different parts of the incoming notification, the one or more instructions associated with each classification of the different parts of the content within the incoming notification, and the detected user behavior with respect to the similar notifications and the similar content within the similar notifications;
• and
• program instructions to present the incoming notification on the computing device according to the automatic determination whether to conceal, partially conceal, or display the content within the incoming notification.
