1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

  • facilitating, at a communication server, a communication session between a mobile device and a terminal device, wherein the mobile device is configured to execute a mobile application, wherein the mobile application includes an input element at an initial state, and wherein the mobile application is remotely controlled by the terminal device;

    receiving a data stream during the communication session, wherein the data stream includes content data, wherein the content data includes an object presented by the mobile application, and wherein the object represents the input element;

    determining whether the input element includes sensitive information;

    transmitting the data stream during the communication session, wherein when the input element does not include sensitive information, when the data stream is received at the terminal device, the content data causes the object to be displayed at the terminal device, and wherein when the input element includes sensitive information, when the data stream is received at the terminal device, the data stream includes the content data and a field mask that causes the object to be masked when the content data is displayed at the terminal device;

    detecting an input event associated with the object;

    generating control data when the input event is detected; and

    transmitting the control data, wherein when the control data is received at the mobile device, the control data modifies the initial state of the input element included in the mobile application.
