Pervasive computing allows a world full of electronic devices connected to each other, autonomous, context aware and with a certain level of intelligence. They are deployed in our environment to ease our life. However today users don’t control the traffic around their data. The use of mobile devices might increase this problem because the system is more complex and requests of personal data is transparent to users in order to reduce their cognitive load. The goal of Kapuer is to inform the user on requests about his privacy and help him protect his privacy by assisting him in the writing of authorization policies. But a risk remains, informing too much the user can drown him into a huge amount of information and could quit using the system. The idea around Kapuer is to make the user conscious of the situation without bothering him too much.
