Detecting sensitive data sent from client device to third-party

Abstract:

An application deployment system provides one or pages of an application to a client device. The pages may specify application code for performing functions and presenting content of the application by the client device as well as a reference to third-party code. As users interact with the page on the client device, the user may interact with the page to add sensitive data for transmission to the application deployment system or receive sensitive data from the application deployment system. To detect and prevent inappropriate use by the third party code, messages relating to the third-party code is monitored for requests to send messages that contain information matching the user information. When there is a match, the message may be prevented from transmission or the application developer notified about the sensitive data request.
