Abstract

Provided is a computer-implemented method for automatically preserving privacy in a user interface. The method includes detecting privacy objects that are being presented via a UI of a computing device to a first user. A security status of the UI is evaluated based at least in part on analyzing audio captured by an audio capture device of the computing device. A privacy mode of the UI that executes privacy actions that are associated with the detected privacy objects is activated based on determining that the security status is in an unsecure state. The privacy mode is deactivated based on determining that the security status has changed from the unsecure state to a secure state, in which determining that the security status has changed from unsecure to secure is based on analyzing the audio captured by the audio capture device of the computing device.
