Dynamic interface for mobile devices

A method of enforcing security and confidentiality on a communications device using a dynamic interface application, comprising:

• receiving, by a provider security component stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium and executable by a processor, a first message indicating that the security of the communications device has been compromised, wherein the first message is generated in response to the security of the communications device being compromised, and wherein the first message identifies panes of the dynamic interface application to be marked confidential, and selected functionality of the dynamic interface application and underlying communications functionality to be disabled;
• authenticating, by the provider security component, the first message;
• processing, by the provider security component, first instructions contained in the first message to safeguard content associated with the panes of the dynamic interface application to be marked confidential;
• sending, by the provider security component, the first instructions to a device security component executing on the communications device to render inaccessible the panes of the dynamic interface application marked confidential by deleting or temporarily disabling access to marked panes and to disable the selected functionality of the dynamic interface application and the underlying communications functionality of the communications device until receiving further instruction;
• receiving, by the provider security component, a second message indicating that the security of the communications device is no longer compromised;
• and
• sending, by the provider security component, second instructions to the device security component to enable previously disabled functionality and restore panes previously disabled pursuant to the first instructions.

• processing, by the provider security component, first instructions contained in the first message to safeguard content associated with the panes of the dynamic interface application to be marked confidential;
• sending, by the provider security component, second instructions based on the first instructions to a device security component executing on the communications device to render inaccessible the panes of the dynamic interface application marked confidential by deleting or temporarily disabling access to the panes marked confidential and to disable the selected functionality of the dynamic interface application and the underlying communications functionality of the communications device until receiving further instruction, wherein the second instructions list the panes marked confidential that are to be rendered inaccessible, and the selected functionality of the dynamic interface application and the underlying communications functionality to be disabled;
• receiving, by a device security component executing on the communications device, the second instructions;
• carrying out, by the device security component, the second instructions;
• receiving, by the device security component, third instructions to enable previously disabled functionality and restore panes previously disabled pursuant to the second instructions in response to an indication that the security of the communications device is no longer compromised;
• and
• carrying out, by the device security component, the third instructions.
