METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CATEGORIZING APPLICATION ACCESS REQUESTS ON A DEVICE
First Claim
1. A method comprising facilitating a processing of and/or processing (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal, the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal based, at least in part, on the following:
- at least one determination of one or more access requests by at least one application to one or more resources of at least one device;
a processing of the one or more access requests to cause, at least in part, a categorization of the one or more access requests based, at least in part, on whether the one or more access requests were initiated by a user of the at least one device; and
an assessment of the at least one application based, at least in part, on the categorization.

Abstract
An approach is provided for categorizing user-initiated and application-initiated access to device resources. The monitoring platform determines one or more access requests by at least one application to one or more resources of at least one device. The monitoring platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of the one or more access requests to cause, at least in part, a categorization of the one or more access requests based, at least in part, on whether the one or more access requests were initiated by a user of the at least one device. The monitoring platform causes, at least in part, an assessment of the at least one application based, at least in part, on the categorization.

11. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following, determine one or more access requests by at least one application to one or more resources of at least one device; process and/or facilitate a processing of the one or more access requests to cause, at least in part, a categorization of the one or more access requests based, at least in part, on whether the one or more access requests were initiated by a user of the at least one device; and cause, at least in part, an assessment of the at least one application based, at least in part, on the categorization. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
