MONITORING ELECTRONIC DEVICES
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- determining whether environmental condition data collected by a plurality of sensors of a mobile device complies with an environmental condition rule comprising thresholds associated with the environmental condition data, the environmental condition data representative of external elements detected by the sensors;
when the environmental condition data does not comply with the environmental condition rule;
informing a user of the mobile device of an environmental condition associated with the environmental condition data; and
performing a self-protecting procedure via the mobile device, the self-protecting procedure defined in the environmental condition rule to protect the mobile device from the environmental condition.

Abstract
Example methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable storage media are provided to monitor a mobile device. An example method includes determining whether environmental condition data collected by a plurality of sensors of a mobile device complies with an environmental condition rule comprising thresholds associated with the environmental condition data. The environmental condition data is representative of external elements detected by the sensors. The example method includes informing a user of the mobile device of an environmental condition associated with the environmental condition data when the environmental condition data does not comply with the environmental condition rule. The example method includes performing a self-protecting procedure via the mobile device. The self-protecting procedure defined in the environmental condition rule is to protect the mobile device from the environmental condition when the environmental condition data does not comply with the environmental condition rule.
