Aspects of the disclosure relate to preventing unauthorized screen capture activity. A computing platform may detect, via an infrared sensor associated with a computing device, an infrared signal from a second device attempting an unauthorized image capture of contents being displayed by a display device of the computing device. Subsequently, the computing platform may determine, via the computing platform, the contents being displayed by the display device. Then, the computing platform may retrieve a record of the contents being displayed by the display device. Then, the computing platform may determine a risk level associated with the infrared signal. Subsequently, the computing platform may perform, via the computing platform and based on the risk level, a remediation task to prevent the unauthorized image capture.
