For example, if a dynamically generated selection criteria is a JPEG file type, the method in such instance encompasses identifying via the processing unit [104] one or more user generated JPEG files from user generated contents present at the user device. Thereafter, once the one or more user generated JPEG files (i.e.
- the method encompasses associating via the authentication unit [106] , a security tag (say a user defined password) with the one or more JPEG files (i.e. the one or more target content) . Further once the security tag (i.e. the user defined password) is associated with the one or more target content, the method thereafter encompasses locking via the processing unit [104] , each of the one or more target content (i.e. each of the one or more JPEG files) based on the associated user defined password. Also, the method along with the locking of the one or more user generated JPEG files, is thereafter encompasses blurring via the processing unit [104] , a thumbnail associated with each of the one or more JPEG files.
- a security tag say a user defined password
- the method encompasses locking manually, via the processing unit [104] , the first content in the selective manner based on the at least one security mechanism.
- the locking manually, via the processing unit [104] , the first content in the selective manner further comprises blurring via the processing unit [104] a thumbnail associated with the first content.
- first content is a user generated PDF file and a user input to lock the first content (i.e. the PDF file) is a user defined flow chart present in the PDF file. Therefore, in such instance the dynamically generated selection criteria is the user defined flow chart.
- the user input to lock the PDF file comprising the user defined flow chart i.e.
- the method in such instance encompasses associating via the authentication unit [106] , a security mechanism (say a user defined PIN) with the PDF file comprising the user defined flow chart. Thereafter once the security mechanism (i.e. the user defined PIN) is associated with the first content (i.e. the PDF file comprising the user defined flow chart) , the method thereafter encompasses manually locking via the processing unit [104] , the PDF file comprising the user defined flow chart (i.e. the first content) based on the user defined PIN. Also, the method along with the locking of the PDF file comprising the user defined flow chart, is thereafter encompasses blurring via the processing unit [104] , a thumbnail associated with the PDF file comprising the user defined flow chart.
- a security mechanism say a user defined PIN
- the method in such instance comprises locking automatically, via the processing unit [104] , each of the user generated content based on the at least one security mechanism associated with each user generated content. Further the locking automatically, via the processing unit [104] , each of the user generated content further comprises blurring via the processing unit [104] , a thumbnail associated with each of the user generated content.
- step [412] Thereafter, the method terminates at step [412] .
- an aspect of the present disclosure relates to a user equipment for locking a user generated content in a selective manner.
- the user equipment comprises a system [100] configured to receive one or more user generated content.
- the system [200] is thereafter configured to automatically identify, at least one target content from the one or more user generated content based on at least one dynamically generated selection criteria. Further the system [200] is configured to associate, at least one security mechanism with the at least one target content.
- the system [200] is thereafter configured to automatically lock the at least one target content in the selective manner based on the at least one security mechanism.
- FIG. 6 an exemplary process of providing an access to a locked user generated content, in accordance with exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. As shown in figure 6, the exemplary process starts at [602] .
- the method encompasses receiving a user input to unlock a locked content (i.e. the locked user generated content) , for instance the user may click on the locked content to get access of the locked content.
- a locked content i.e. the locked user generated content
- step [606] the method encompasses providing a query to a content/media provider based on the receipt of the user input to unlock the locked content.
- step [608] the method encompasses identifying whether a security tag value present in the locked content. If yes the method leads to step [612] , otherwise the method leads to step [610] .
- step [610] the method encompasses providing the access to the locked content by opening the locked content as no security tag value present in the locked content.
- the method encompasses opening a user interface (UI) according to the security tag value present in the locked content.
- UI user interface
- step [614] the method encompasses receiving user credentials as a user input via the provided user interface.
- step [616] the method encompasses identifying if the authentication based on the user credentials is passed. If yes the method leads to step [618] , otherwise the method leads to step [620] .
- step [618] the method encompasses denying the access to the locked content based on the failed authentication.
- step [620] the method encompasses unlocking all the locked contents for certain time based on the successful authentication.
- step [622] the method encompasses locking again all the unlocked contents based on one of a screen off and a screen lock.
- step [626] Thereafter, the method terminates at step [626] .
- the present solution provides significant technical advancement over the existing solutions by locking the one or more user generated content in the selective manner. Furthermore, the present disclosure provides the users an option to automatically lock all the user generated contents and an option to automatically lock selective user generated contents. Therefore based on the implementation of the features of the present disclosure only specific user generated contents are locked hence there are less chances of privacy leak and data theft. Furthermore, unnecessary content like forwarded images, video, documents which are not needed to be locked are not taken care of to avoid unnecessary processing.

Abstract
La présente divulgation concerne un procédé (400) et un système (100) qui permettent de verrouiller un contenu généré par un utilisateur de manière sélective. Le procédé consiste à recevoir, au niveau d'une unité d'émission-réception (102), un ou plusieurs contenus générés par un utilisateur. Ensuite, le procédé consiste à identifier automatiquement, par l'intermédiaire d'une unité de traitement (104) reliée à l'unité d'émission-réception (102), au moins un contenu cible dans le ou les contenus générés par un utilisateur sur la base d'au moins un critère de sélection généré de manière dynamique. Le procédé consiste ensuite à associer, par l'intermédiaire d'une unité d'authentification (106) reliée à l'unité de traitement (104) et à l'unité d'émission-réception (102), au moins un mécanisme de sécurité avec le ou les contenus cibles. Le procédé consiste ensuite à verrouiller automatiquement, par l'intermédiaire de l'unité de traitement (104), le ou les contenus cibles de manière sélective sur la base du ou des mécanismes de sécurité.
