Abstract
A system and method for providing selective control of information shared from a first device to a second device. The system includes a connection detector to detect a short-range communication between the first device and the second device; a security setter to set or acquire a security setting; a disconnect detector to detect whether the short-range communication between the first device and the second device is terminated; and a wiper to perform data management of information shared via the short-range communication between the first device and the second device based on the security setting.
Claims18
A system for providing selective control of information shared from a first device to a second device, comprising:
- a data store comprising a computer readable medium storing a program of instructions for the providing of selective control;
- a processor that executes the program of instructions;
- a connection detector to detect a short-range communication between the first device and the second device;
- a security setter to set or acquire a security setting;
- a disconnect detector to detect whether the short-range communication between the first device and the second device is terminated;
- and
- a wiper to perform data management of information shared via the short-range communication between the first device and the second device based on the security setting.
A method for providing selective control of information shared from a first device to a second device, comprising:
- detecting a short-range communication between the first device and the second device;
- acquiring a security setting;
- detecting whether the short-range communication between the first device and the second device is terminated;
- and
- performing data management of information shared via the short-range communication between the first device and the second device based on the security setting,
- wherein at least one of the detecting, acquiring, or performing is performed by a processor.
