The subject disclosure provides systems and methods for application-specific network data filtering. Application-specific network data filtering may be performed by a sandboxed process prior to providing the network data to an application to which the network data is directed. Any malicious or otherwise potentially harmful data that is included in the network data may be removed by the application-specific network data filter or may be allowed to corrupt the application specific network data filtering operations within the sandbox, thereby preventing the malicious or harmful data from affecting the application or other portions of an electronic device. In one or more implementations, a first process such as an application-specific network data filtering process may request allocation of memory for the first process from second process, such as an application, that is separate from a memory manager of the electronic device.

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for preserving references in sandboxes. A system implementing the method receives a document for use in a sandbox environment and passes the document to a parser, via a coordinator. The parser finds references in the document to other resources and outputs a list of references. The system passes the list of references to a verifier that verifies each reference and outputs a list of verified references. The system passes the list of verified references to the sandboxed application which extends the sandbox to include the resources on the list of verified references. In one embodiment, the system preserves references in sandboxes without the use a coordinator.

Techniques are disclosed relating to biometric authentication, e.g., facial recognition. In some embodiments, a device is configured to verify that image data from a camera unit exhibits a pseudo-random sequence of image capture modes and/or a probing pattern of illumination points (e.g., from lasers in a depth capture mode) before authenticating a user based on recognizing a face in the image data. In some embodiments, a secure circuit may control verification of the sequence and/or the probing pattern. In some embodiments, the secure circuit may verify frame numbers, signatures, and/or nonce values for captured image information. In some embodiments, a device may implement one or more lockout procedures in response to biometric authentication failures. The disclosed techniques may reduce or eliminate the effectiveness of spoofing and/or replay attacks, in some embodiments.

Some embodiments of the invention provide a program for recovering access to a service associated with an account. The program provides a login credential to log into the account to receive the associated service. Next, the program receives an access continuation parameter (ACP) after logging into the account. The program then accesses the service and receives a rejection of a subsequent access to the service. The program then provides the ACP in lieu of the login credential to continue to receive the service.

Techniques are disclosed relating to sharing access to electronically-secured property. In some embodiments, a first computing device having a first secure element receives, from a second computing device associated with an owner of the electronically-secured property, an indication that the second computing device has transmitted a token to server computing system, the token permitting a user of the first computing device access to the electronically-secured property. Based on the received indication, the first computing device sends a request for the transmitted token to the server computing system and, in response to receiving the requested token, securely stores the received token in the first secure element of the first computing device. The first computing device subsequently transmits the stored token from the first secure element of the first device to the electronically-secured property to obtain access to the electronically-secured property based on the token.

The present disclosure describes techniques for changing a required authentication type based on a request for a particular type of information. For example, consider a situation where a user has asked a virtual assistant "who owns this device?" By default, the device may allow biometric authentication to unlock. In response to identification of the owner by the virtual assistant, however, the device may require one or more other types of authentication (e.g., manual entry of a passcode) to unlock the device. In various embodiments, the disclosed techniques may increase the security of the device by making it more difficult for malicious entities to obtain the sensitive information or to access device functionality once the sensitive information has been disclosed. In various embodiments, this may prevent or reduce unauthorized access to the device.

According to one embodiment, in response to an inquiry received from a first application for an extension service associated with a first of a plurality of extension points of an operating system, a list of one or more extensions is identified that have been registered for the first extension point with the operating system, where the first application is executed within a first sandboxed environment. The identified list of extensions is displayed to prompt a user to select one of the extensions to be associated with the first application. In response to a selection of one of the extensions, the selected extension is launched in a second sandboxed environment. The selected extension and the second application were packaged in an application bundle, and when the application bundle was installed, the selected extension and the second application appeared in a registry of the operating system as separate applications.

In one embodiment, when a new-password field is detected, the field is, without additional user input, automatically populated with a device-generated strong password. Affordances for accepting or declining use of the password are displayed. In one embodiment, when a one-time use code is received via text or e-mail and a corresponding field is displayed, the code is presented as a suggested word for insertion via an insertion affordance. In one embodiment, a first device (e.g., a phone) receives an indication that a second device (e.g., a media player) is in need of authentication credentials. In response, the first device initiates a process for sharing the authentication credentials. In one embodiment, in response to a verbal request, password information is displayed by an electronic device. For example, "Show me my banking password" causes display of the relevant authentication credentials.

Methods, systems, and machine-readable storage medium are described wherein, in one embodiment, identifiers, such as bookmarks, are used to allow access to files or folders in a sandboxed environment. One or more applications are restricted by an access control system, which can be, for example, a trusted software component of an operating system. In one embodiment, the bookmarks or other identifiers allow an application to have access to a file even if the file is renamed or moved by a user while the application has been terminated. In one embodiment, a resource manager, or other trusted access control system, can interact with an application to allow for the use of bookmarks in an environment in which a sandbox application controls access to the files such that each application must make a request to the sandbox application in order to obtain access to a particular file or folder.

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for booting a computing device having an encrypted storage medium using full disk encryption, referred to as tamper-resistant boot. The system retrieves a kernel cache and a kernel cache digest from an unencrypted storage medium and verifies the authenticity of the kernel cache based on the credentials and the kernel cache digest. Initiation and execution of the operating system is performed if the kernel cache is authentic. In one embodiment, the system verifies the authenticity of a request to disable tamper-resistant booting by utilizing a password verifier and a password proof.
