DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to the like elements throughout the specification and claims. The description will be omitted.

1 is a flowchart illustrating a process for securing a portion of a screen performed by a computing device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 2 to 4 are diagrams illustrating setting a security area of a screen according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. Is a diagram illustrating a user interface (UI) screen.

A subject that processes some screen security, which will be described below with reference to the drawings, is a computing device that processes an image on an attached or connected display means. It will be more apparent from the following description that the computing device may be any device that processes an image to be displayed on the display means by having a computing function such as a tablet PC or a smart phone, as well as a general desktop computer. However, hereinafter, for convenience of description, the computing device will be mainly described in the case of a desktop computer having an input means such as a mouse and a keyboard.

Referring to FIG. 1, the computing device outputs a UI screen as a user interface (UI) for setting a security area (S10). The UI screen will be described in detail later.

When the security area is set among the images to be displayed on the screen, the computing device sets a release condition for the security window to be displayed on the security area (S20). The computing device outputs a screen on which a security window is displayed to cover the contents of the security area.

In other words, as shown in FIG. 3, since personal information such as resident registration number, telephone number, etc. is required for security, it is set as a security area and is covered by each security window 100-2, 100-3.

It will be described how to set the security area that the security window is displayed.

Referring to FIG. 2 according to an example, the computing device 100 displays a security window 100 on one side of a screen, and a user moves the security window 100 to a desired position by clicking and dragging using a mouse device. Display the user interlaced screen 10 that can be moved. In other words, to set the security area using the security window (100). Of course, the size of the security window 100 can be changed as shown in FIG.

The user can set the security area by moving the security window 100 to a position where the contents to be hidden are displayed. Accordingly, as shown in the execution screen 20 as shown in FIG. It will be secure.

According to an example, the size of the security window may be directly controlled by the user. According to another example, the computing device may analyze the contents according to the position where the security window is moved, and set the size so that all the contents may be hidden. . For example, if a box is displayed at the position where the security window is moved as shown by reference numeral 100-2 of FIG. 3, the size of the security window is determined based on the size of the box.

And, according to an example, the contents of the security area in which the security window is located may be analyzed, and analysis information thereof may be displayed on the security window (see reference numeral 100-2).

According to another example, specific content may be displayed on the security window. For example, advertisement content received through a network from a preset server device may be displayed on the security window (see reference numeral 100-3).

According to another example, as shown by reference numeral 220 of FIG. 4, the original screen of the corresponding security area may be reduced and displayed on the security window. In other words, by displaying the contents of the security area small, it is difficult to identify other people around the user in front of the computing device.

Contents displayed on the security window as in the above example may be determined by the user's selection. In other words, when the user sets the security zone, the user directly selects the content to be displayed in the security window displayed in the security zone.

Referring to FIG. 4 according to another example of a user interface screen for setting a security zone, a button for setting a security zone is displayed on one side of the screen, and the user presses the corresponding button 200 and then clicks the security zone. & Drag to select as input.

The setting of the security area described so far has been described as being performed to correspond to the execution screen 20 according to any program. That is, the security area is set to correspond to the execution window (that is, the execution screen 20) displayed by executing the program 01. If the display position of the execution screen 20 is changed, the security area is also changed accordingly. If the execution window is closed and the execution screen is not activated, the security area is also closed accordingly.

Alternatively, according to another example, a security area for the screen itself may be set. That is, regardless of the execution screen of any program, the security area is set on a part of the screen itself, and the security window is displayed at the location accordingly.

Hereinafter, the description will be mainly given that the security area is set in the execution screen according to the program.

According to an example, the computing device recognizes whether the screen security is set on the application to be executed or the current execution screen of the application, and displays a UI screen for setting the security area only when the screen security is set. You may. That is, when an execution command for a screen security-set program is input, the UI screen shown in FIG. 2 or 4 is displayed when the execution screen of the corresponding program is displayed.

In addition, according to an example, the security area may be basically set in advance according to the application screen or the execution screen of the application program. Accordingly, the basic security window 210 may be displayed in the basic security area as shown in FIG. 4. Can be. For example, referring to FIG. 3 together, as the security setting history information for the security zones 100-2 and 100-3 set by the user, the position value of the corresponding security zone and information on the security window display method (that is, Information on whether the content is displayed in the corresponding security window), the security window release condition (to be described later), and the like are stored to correspond to the corresponding application (or execution screen). That is, when the execution screen according to the corresponding application program is displayed later, the security window may be displayed in the basic security area as shown in the basic security window 210 of FIG. 4 based on the security setting history information. Therefore, the user does not need to perform setting of the security area every time in checking the same execution screen.

Referring back to FIG. 1, in S20, a release condition for the security window may be set. The release condition refers to a condition for releasing the display of the security window displayed in the security area.

According to an example of the release condition, when the user requests to release the security window (for example, clicks the security window), the computing device asks for a password and performs an authentication procedure on the information input from the user. Determine.

In addition to a password based on a letter combination of numbers, alphabets, symbols, and the like as authentication information, when the computing device is a device having a touch screen such as a smartphone, a pattern by touch & drag may be used as authentication information. This means that the authentication method by inputting the authentication information of the user is used as the release condition for the security window, so the authentication method such as password or pattern recognition will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and thus, further description thereof will be omitted.

According to another example, a user face authentication method using a camera may be set as a release condition. In other words, the computing device determines whether the security window is released by determining whether the user who is currently viewing the screen being output is an authenticated person by using an image by the camera.

Hereinafter, a process of determining and processing whether or not to release the security window using the image of the camera will be described.

5 and 6 are flowcharts illustrating a process of processing whether a security window is released using an image by a camera according to each embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 7 is a view illustrating a security window according to another embodiment of the present invention. An example diagram showing a UI screen.

Referring to FIG. 5 according to an example, the computing device analyzes an image photographed using a camera (S510) and recognizes a user's face (S520). Face recognition technology for recognizing human faces by analyzing images is still used in various fields, and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The computing device stores face information on the recognized user's face as rights holder information according to the release condition for the set security area (S530).

The computing device maintains the camera function even when the security window is displayed in the security area, and analyzes the captured image captured by the camera in real time (hereinafter referred to as the real-time image) from time to time (S540), and recognizes the owner's face in the real-time image. It is determined whether or not (S550). In other words, the computing device determines whether the user currently looking at the screen is a preset owner.

The computing device maintains the display of the security window if the owner is not recognized as a result of the determination, and releases the display of the security window if the owner is recognized in the real-time image (S560).

According to this embodiment, when the right holder is looking at the screen, the security of the security area is released (that is, the display of the security window is stopped), and it is determined that the right holder is not taken by the camera. By maintaining the display of the security window, from the user's point of view, even if you do not input any additional authentication information, the security is automatically released and set.

In addition, even if the owner is looking at the screen, that is, even if the user according to the real-time video is recognized as the owner, other people may be looking at the screen may cause a situation that the security of the security area is difficult to maintain.

Referring to FIG. 6 according to another example for solving this problem, when the existence of the owner is recognized in the real-time image (S610), the computing device determines whether another person exists in the real-time image (S620). If no other person exists in the real-time video, the security window will be released (S660).

In contrast, when another person is present in the real-time image, the computing device recognizes another's gaze by analyzing another person's face. In other words, it analyzes the eye area of another person's face and recognizes the gaze by analyzing where the eyes are looking.

The computing device determines the security risk according to whether the recognized other person's eyes are looking at the screen (S640), and if there is a security risk, displays the security window in the security area. Proceed.

For example, if the text message transmission function of the smartphone set the security window release condition according to the present embodiment, as shown in the example screen 700 shown in FIG. The message content input by the user may be set to be hidden by the security window 710. Here, as shown in the figure, until the character currently input and the previous character may not be hidden by the security window 710 so that the user can recognize what the character is currently input.

In other words, in the examples described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4, the security area is fixed so that the security window is displayed only at the corresponding location. In contrast, according to the embodiment of FIG. 7, when the security area is a user input area (eg, a text input window) capable of user input, the position of the security window 710 displayed in the security area so as to correspond to the user input. And / or the size may vary.

In other words, as shown in FIG. 7, the security window is variably displayed at the corresponding location by setting the location where the user input information is automatically set as the security area, rather than being set as the security area to fix the specific area. .

The partial screen security according to the present invention described above may be implemented as computer readable codes on a computer readable recording medium. Computer-readable recording media include all kinds of recording media having data stored thereon that can be decrypted by a computer system. For example, there may be a read only memory (ROM), a random access memory (RAM), a magnetic tape, a magnetic disk, a flash memory, an optical data storage device, and the like. In addition, the computer-readable recording medium may be distributed and executed in a computer system connected to a computer network, and may be stored and executed as a code readable in a distributed manner.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims. It will be understood that various modifications and changes may be made.
