The subject disclosure provides systems and methods for providing privacy-preserving social attribution for electronic devices. For example, when information is received from a contact of a user at the user's electronic device, various applications at the electronic device may later display the received information. It can be desirable to attribute the displayed information received from the contact to that contact, without exposing identifying information of the contact to the displaying application. Aspects of the subject technology include a system process that generates an image including contact information, that can be rendered in a user interface of an application, without providing the image or the contact information to the application.

Privacy-preserving sharing attribution for electronic devices

A verifier is provided for assessing unique characteristics exhibits by a user over a period of time. The unique characteristics are captured through various interactions with the user over time using a habit capture system which models the user's characteristics when he or she uses a keyboard, a mouse or a digitizer, among others. When the system is first used, the user is prompted to answer various questions, some of which inquire into personal information. As the user responds, information representative of the user is captured, including keyboard typing patterns, mouse click patterns, misspelling patterns, among others. Data captured by the habit capture system is provided to a verifier which samples the user's characteristics and compares the characteristics of the current user with that stored in a database.
