IDENTIFICATION AND VISUALIZATION OF TRUSTED USER INTERFACE OBJECTS
First Claim
1. A verification system that facilitates identifying authentic UI objects when rendered on-screen, comprising:
- a detection component that detects when user-based input has activated a verification mode with respect to one or more trusted UI objects rendered on-screen;
a verification component that verifies at least one of a source and identity of the one or more trusted UI objects; and
a verification rendering engine that re-renders the one or more trusted UI objects in a manner that is based at least upon whether the one or more trusted UI objects are verified, thus improving visual recognition of verified trusted UI objects over non-verified trusted UI objects.

Abstract
A unique system and method that facilitates visually identifying authentic UI objects, bundles, or windows is provided. A detection component can detect when user-based input has activated a verification mode with respect to one or more trusted UI objects rendered on-screen. A verification component can verify at least one of a source and identity associated with one or more UI objects in order to ensure the integrity related therewith. A verification rendering engine can re-render the one or more trusted UI objects in a manner that is based at least upon whether the one or more trusted UI objects are verified, thus improving visual recognition of verified trusted UI objects over non-verified UI objects.

12. A computer-implemented method that facilitates readily identifying authentic UI objects when rendered on-screen, comprising:
-
rendering at least one trusted v Window, the v Window comprising at least one trusted UI object; verifying authenticity of the at least one v Window at least in part by matching a hash of the at least one v Window with hash values stored in one or more trusted UI object stores; and rendering authentic v Windows using at least one visual transform to facilitate visually distinguishing between verified and non-verified v Windows. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computer-implemented verification system that facilitates identifying authentic UI objects when rendered on-screen, comprising:
-
means for detecting when user-based input has activated a verification mode with respect to one or more trusted UI objects rendered on-screen; means for verifying at least one of a source and identity of the one or more trusted UI objects; and means for re-rendering the one or more trusted UI objects in a manner that is based at least upon whether the one or more trusted UI objects are verified, thus improving on-screen visualization of authorized trusted UI objects. - View Dependent Claims (20)
