A method and system of detecting a delinquent mobile user device. An international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) of a subscriber identity module (SIM) card of the user device is determined by the user device. The IMSI is sent to a Remote Recovery Server (RRS). A message is received from the RRS as to whether the IMSI is authorized for the user device. Upon determining that the IMSI is not authorized for the user device, a notification is displayed on a display of the user device.

The present disclosure relates to mobile edge computing (MEC) information obtaining methods and apparatus. One example method performed by a first network element includes receiving target reference information from a second network element, and sending, to the second network element, information about a MEC platform corresponding to the target reference information. The target reference information comprises target capability information.

A system and method for incoming and outgoing RCS messages with inmates includes a database including a plurality of user records, wherein the user records include a plurality of user profiles and a plurality of inmate profiles, wherein each of the user profiles includes a user ID, a mobile ID, a carrier, and at least one inmate account number. Each of the inmate profiles includes an inmate user ID, a carrier, a current account balance, and at least one user account number. The system and method also includes an application server including a processor programmed to receive a RCS message from a new user profile, determine a carrier of the user profile, process the new user profile based on the carrier, wherein the carrier is determined by a triggering event, and send the new user profile to an appropriate list for future RCS messaging.

Outgoing communications from a user device are monitored following a notification that an application is installed on a user device. When a number of the outgoing communications to a premium-rate number during a predetermined period of time exceeds a corresponding quantity threshold, the pattern of the outgoing communications may be ascertained to be anomalous. A user device is directed to present a prompt that requests an input as to whether the outgoing communications are authorized. In response to a first input that the outgoing communications are unauthorized, additional outgoing communications from the user device to the premium-rate number are blocked for a predesignated amount of time. Further, the first input is stored as a corresponding vote that the application is malicious. In response to a second input that the outgoing communications are authorized, the second input is stored as a corresponding vote that the application is non-malicious.

A system and method for incoming and outgoing electronic messages with inmates includes a database including user records having user profiles and inmate profiles, and action event records. The system and method are programmed to associate at least one inmate account number with a specific SIM card or phone number, detect the triggering event, trigger the action event to be performed based on the triggering event, perform the action event data based on the action event. The action event data includes determining whether the user profile is a current user or a new user, receiving at least one inmate account number associated with the message, processing the message according to predetermined criteria, upon determining that the user profile is a current user pairing the message with the at least one inmate account number, and sending the message to the at least one inmate account number.

An information processing apparatus includes a memory storing a log of an operation of a user and a processor configured to cause the memory to store the log of the operation of the user, and if the log of the operation of the user stored on the memory satisfies a specific condition after an operation related to an inquiry of the user is detected, transmit, to an external entity related to a destination of the inquiry, information indicating that a question in the inquiry of the user is not solved.
