A system for injection and maintenance of artifact objects within user equipment (UE) is disclosed. The UE comprises a display, a transceiver, a processor, and a memory storing a mobile application comprising a script and an injection engine that, upon being executed, the processor receives a payload comprising a visual object and an artifact object. The UE determines placement of the visual object and the artifact object into the script of the mobile application, injects the visual object and the artifact object into the script, and presents the visual object at an anchor location on the interface. In response to input to remove presentation of the visual object on the display, the UE determines that the visual object is associated with the artifact object, and removes presentation of the visual object from the display. The UE presents the artifact object at a second anchor location on the interface.

System and methods for injection and maintenance of artifact objects within user equipment

A method of thwarting infiltration of malware onto a mobile communication device. The method comprises a filtering application executing on an ad gateway server computer analyzing a mobile advertisement by to determine a signature of the mobile advertisement, where the signature comprises at least one of a brand identity, a color scheme, a reference image, and a font type, searching a rules data store using the signature of the mobile advertisement as a search key to obtain a first rule, and identifying a first mobile presentation context in the first rule. The method further comprises the filtering application determining that a mobile presentation context of a mobile communication device to which the mobile advertisement is directed by matches the first mobile presentation context and the filtering application blocking transmission of the mobile advertisement from the ad gateway server to the mobile communication device.
