Method and device for implementing graded display of privacy information

[0030] Example one:

[0031] When setting the privacy level of private information such as phone book entries, the method for implementing hierarchical display of private information provided by the present invention, such as figure 1 As shown, including the following steps:

[0032] Step 101: Pre-add the privacy level setting function of the mobile terminal and the privacy level setting function of the phone book entry:

[0033] First, add the "Privacy Level Setting" function to the setting module of the mobile terminal, and allow users to view and operate it in the form of a menu; among them, the privacy level setting of the mobile terminal includes: level level, level name, and level password; this embodiment Among them, the level can include levels 1 to 3. According to the level from low to high, the level names can be divided into: general, secret and top secret; the level password can be set or modified by the user according to the level level and/or privacy name; The implementation function of the "Privacy Level Setting" function can adopt the following methods:

[0034] struct Privacy_level

[0035] {

[0036] int level;//level level

[0037] char name[65];//level name

[0038] char combination[9];//level password

[0039] };

[0040] Secondly, add the privacy level setting function to the attribute information of the phone book entry, such as the name of the level, which can be viewed and operated by the user in the form of a menu; the present invention can add the privacy level setting function of the phone number to the phone book entry, respectively To achieve hierarchical management of private information such as short messages and call records stored in mobile terminals; in this embodiment, a level name variable can be added to the structure storing phone book entry data, and its implementation function is as follows:

[0041] struct contact_item

[0042] {

[0043]...

[0044] char name[65];//level name

[0045]...

[0046] };

[0047] Step 102: Set the level password of each privacy level of the mobile terminal;

[0048] In this step, after the mobile terminal leaves the factory, the initial level name of the mobile terminal defaults to general, the level defaults to level 1, and the level password can be the default string or default to none; the user can use the "Privacy Level Settings" menu to preset The corresponding level password is set for each privacy level and saved by the mobile terminal; when the user sets the privacy level of the mobile terminal as secret, if the level password with level 1 is the default character string, the user needs to enter the default character After stringing, enter the secret level, and under the secret level, you can reset the level password corresponding to the secret level and save it; if the level password of level 1 is none, the user can directly enter the secret level and set the secret level The corresponding level password and save it.

[0049] Step 103: Set the privacy level of the mobile terminal and the privacy level of the phone book entry;

[0050] In this step, the user can set the level name of the mobile terminal through the "Privacy level setting" menu to set the level of the mobile terminal. For example, when the user sets the level name of the mobile terminal as secret through the "Privacy level setting" menu, the user will move The level of the terminal is set to level 2, and the level password corresponds to the secret level;

[0051] Set the privacy level attribute of the phone number through the attribute setting menu of the phone book entry, and save the set privacy level attribute together with the phone number, name, email address and other information as the attribute information of the entry; for example: set the phone number as: If the level name of the 1234 entry is set to top secret, the privacy level of the phone number in the phone book corresponds to level 3.

[0052] Step 104: When the user opens the information corresponding to the phone book entry, compare the privacy level of the phone book entry with the privacy level of the mobile terminal. If the privacy level of the phone book entry is lower than or equal to the privacy level of the mobile terminal, The information corresponding to the phone book entry is displayed; otherwise, the information corresponding to the phone book entry is blocked.

[0053] In this step, the information corresponding to the phone book entry opened by the user may include: a certain phone number in the phone book, and information such as a short message or call record corresponding to the phone number, which can be searched according to the phone number in the short message or call record To the privacy level of the phone number; if the privacy level of the phone number is lower than or equal to the privacy level of the mobile terminal, the phone number and the SMS or call records corresponding to the phone number will be displayed; if the phone number is If the privacy level of the number is higher than the privacy level of the mobile terminal, the phone number and the SMS or call records corresponding to the phone number will be blocked to protect the security of this part of the information; if you need to display the above information, you need to Improve the privacy level of the mobile terminal to no less than the privacy level of the above-mentioned information.

[0054] In the present invention, for the privacy management of multimedia files such as pictures, recordings, notepads, etc., it is also possible to add privacy level attributes to the stored data information of the files according to the above steps, and the privacy level of the files is set by the user. It is determined whether the above-mentioned file can be displayed according to the privacy level of the mobile terminal, which will not be repeated here.

[0055] Embodiment two:

[0056] When the privacy level of the mobile terminal is switched, the method for implementing hierarchical display of private information provided by the present invention is as follows: figure 2 As shown, including the following steps:

[0057] Step 201: Set the privacy level of the mobile terminal;

[0058] In this step, when the mobile terminal is at a privacy level such as level 2, the user can update and set the privacy level of the mobile terminal through the "privacy level setting" menu.

[0059] Step 202: Read the privacy level of the mobile terminal set by the user and compare it with the privacy level of the current mobile terminal. If the privacy level of the mobile terminal set by the user is higher than the privacy level of the current mobile terminal, perform step 203; otherwise, Go to step 204;

[0060] In this step, for a mobile terminal at a privacy level, when the user modifies the privacy level of the mobile terminal through the "Privacy Level Setting" menu, the mobile terminal reads the privacy level of the mobile terminal set by the user and changes the privacy level set by the user. The privacy level of the mobile terminal is compared with the privacy level of the current mobile terminal. If the privacy level of the mobile terminal set by the user is higher than the privacy level of the current mobile terminal, step 203 is executed; if the privacy level of the mobile terminal set by the user is lower than or It is equal to the privacy level of the current mobile terminal, and step 204 is executed.

[0061] Step 203: Prompt the user to enter the password of the set privacy level, and determine whether the level password entered by the user is correct, if the level password entered by the user is correct, go to step 204; otherwise, return to step 203;

[0062] In this step, when the privacy level of the mobile terminal set by the user is higher than the privacy level of the current mobile terminal, the mobile terminal will pop up a password input prompt box, asking the user to enter the password of the set privacy level; and the input password is compared with the mobile terminal Compare the corresponding level passwords stored by itself to determine whether the level password entered by the user is correct.

[0063] Step 204: The mobile terminal switches to the new privacy level, and updates and displays the privacy information stored in the mobile terminal according to the new privacy level.

[0064] In this step, when the mobile terminal is switched to a new privacy level, the level level, level name, and level password will be adjusted accordingly according to the new privacy level.

[0065] In order to achieve the above method, the present invention also provides a device for implementing hierarchical display of private information, such as image 3 As shown, the device includes: a privacy level setting module, a privacy level comparison module, and a privacy information processing module; among them,
