1. A mobile device, comprising:

  • one or more processors; and

    one or more memory devices that store instructions executable by the one or more processors;

    wherein the one or more processors when executing the instructions;

    receive first user-interaction information indicative of first sensed interactions of a user with the mobile device during a first period of time;

    receive second user-interaction information indicative of second sensed interactions of a user with the mobile device during a second period of time that is subsequent to the first period of time;

    compare the second user-interaction information against the first user-interaction information;

    report anomaly information to a security service of the mobile device, a remote system, or both, where an amount of anomaly between the first user-interaction information and the second user-interaction information exceeds a likeness threshold, the anomaly information including a difference between the first user-interaction information and the second user-interaction information;

    upload preselected types of data stored locally on the mobile device to a secured storage block of the remote system, when the amount of anomaly between the first user-interaction information and the second user-interaction information exceeds the likeness threshold; and

    remove the preselected types of data stored locally on the mobile device subsequent to the uploading of the preselected types of data, when the amount of anomaly between the first user-interaction information and the second user-interaction information exceeds the likeness threshold.
