Method to prevent sensitive data output via remote access
The patent US11983552B2 outlines a computer-implemented method designed to prevent the output of sensitive data to human operators when accessing applications via a remote access protocol. The method involves a processor receiving data from a virtual remote server, which operates as a virtual machine. This data is used to render an image of the user interface of an application. The processor determines a programmatic text-based representation of the application and identifies sensitive data using preselected filters. Subsequently, the processor modifies the rendering data to exclude the identified sensitive information before outputting a modified user interface to the operator's computer.
Additionally, the claims detail various aspects of the method, including the use of filters that may be rules or machine learning models capable of identifying both text and images. The user interface can be a graphical user interface, and the application in question may include web browsers. The patent also encompasses a computer-readable medium containing instructions for executing the method and a computing system configured to perform the outlined processes. This innovation aims to enhance data security during remote operations by ensuring that sensitive information is not inadvertently displayed to users.
