    Abstract: A software application may be registered for network-based security services that help ensure that the software application only communicates with network devices (e.g., application servers) for which permission is expressly given or network devices otherwise deemed trustworthy. A network server may monitor network traffic originating from the software application installed on a user device. When the software application causes the user device to communicate with a network device for which permission has not been given and/or that is untrustworthy (e.g., for having a reputation of being associated with malicious software), the network server may prohibit the software application from sending information to the network device.
