Abstract
Various embodiments may include methods, devices, and non-transitory processor-readable media for performing information flow tracking during execution of a software application. A hybrid static/dynamic analysis may be used to track information flow during execution of a software application. In various embodiments, the method may predict a multiple paths of execution, and may utilize these predictions to analyze only actually executing software code. By analyzing only actually executed software code, the method may provide a lightweight and resource-efficient way of detecting actual data leaks as they occur during execution of a software application.
