The disclosure generally relates to method, system and apparatus for privacy enhancement mode for integrated cameras. In an exemplary embodiment, the disclosure allows a user of a device equipped with an integrated device to engage the device in the so-called privacy mode whereby while the camera is engaged, the device does not broadcast the user's images; rather the device uses the camera to detect, discern and determine the user's attributes. Such attributes may include one or more of movement, motion, mood, gesture and temperature of the user. The attributes may include specificities of the user's environment.

Method, system and apparatus for privacy enhancement mode for integrated cameras

A system comprising a platform protected by an always-on always-available security system is described. In one embodiment, the system includes a risk behavior logic to detect a potential problem, a core logic component to provide logic to analyze the potential problem and to move the platform to a suspecting mode when the potential problem indicates a theft suspicion, and the security action logic, to send periodic alerts to a security server when the platform is in the suspecting mode, the alert including movement related data, such that the security server can take an action to protect the platform.
