摘要:
Integrated cybersecurity systems and method for providing client access to a website. The methods involve receiving website configuration information for the client access; receiving client enrollment data for the client access; receiving client input data from a client; defining integrated client confirmation; and providing the website with the client identification information based on the integrated client confirmation. The defining involves authenticating the client input data by comparing the client input data with the client enrollment data; authorizing the authenticated client by determining client authorization information associated with the client enrollment data based on the website configuration information; identifying the authenticated client by determining client identification information associated with the client enrollment data; and providing the website with the client identification information based on the integrated client confirmation. The website is isolated from the client enrollment data, the client input data, and the defining of the integrated client confirmation.

An electronic device includes a security system which provides for protection of designated files stored on an electronic device. For example, an electronic device may receive user input selecting a file for protection processing. The user input may select the file for encryption and automatic decryption under certain predetermined conditions and/or for automatic saving to a remote storage device after the device has been reported stolen, for instance. After receiving the user input selecting the file for protection processing, the electronic device may automatically receive theft information from a remote server, wherein the theft information indicates whether the electronic device has been reported stolen. After determining whether the electronic device has been reported stolen, the electronic device may automatically process the selected file according to the selected protection processing, wherein the processing is contingent on whether the electronic device has been reported stolen. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
An electronic device has software for protecting the electronic device from unauthorized utilization. When executed, the software causes the electronic device to execute an application component, wherein the application component is configured to automatically ascertain whether the electronic device has been reported stolen, based on information received from a server system. The electronic device also automatically determines whether the application component is operating correctly, and if so, automatically provides a basic input/output system (BIOS) component of the electronic device with information indicating that the application component is operating correctly. During a subsequent boot process for the electronic device, the software automatically prevents the electronic device from completing the boot process if the BIOS component does not find the information from the application component indicating that the application component was operating correctly. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
An electronic device security and tracking system. A system includes one or more clients, wherein the clients are electronic devices; and a server computer system connected to each of the clients, wherein the server computer system is capable of tracking and locating each of the clients. In one aspect, the server computer system includes one or more web servers coupled to each of the clients, wherein the web servers include a website for the electronic device security and tracking system; one or more file transfer protocol servers coupled to each of the web servers; and one or more database servers connected to each of the web servers.
摘要:
A system and method for securing and tracking an electronic device. The system includes hardware, software and firmware components that cooperate to allow tracking, disabling, and other interaction with the stolen electronic device. The system includes an application component, non-viewable component and Basic Input/Output Subsystem (BIOS) component that are present on the electronic device. The BIOS component maintains the secured environment of the application and non-viewable components. If only the application component was provided, a simple low level format of the hard disk drive would remove the application and bypass the security features. The system implements an “application and BIOS” based solution to electronic device security.
摘要:
A system for use with a computer is provided, the computer including a self-encrypting drive (SED), the SED including a nominal space and a pre-boot region, wherein the nominal space can be locked to prevent access to the nominal space. The system includes SED management software configured to be loaded in the pre-boot region of the SED. The SED management software includes a pre-boot operating system (OS) and an unlocking program. The unlocking program is configured (a) to execute within the pre-boot OS, and (b) upon successful authentication of a user, to unlock the nominal space of the SED. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
A system and method provide for integrating a Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) Read-Only-Memory (ROM) image. A method includes but is not limited to opening a BIOS modification application; opening a target BIOS binary image within the BIOS modification application; and adding an electronic security and tracking system and method (ESTSM) ROM image to the target BIOS binary image.
摘要:
A system and method for electronic device protection. A method includes activating the electronic device; transferring control to a Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) component after activation; transferring control to a non-viewable component from the BIOS component; verifying that an application component operated correctly during a previous device activation; and continuing with activation of the electronic device if the application component operated correctly during the previous device activation.

摘要:
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for a self-encrypting drive (SED) management system configured to be loaded in a pre-boot region of an SED-based computer, the SED of the SED-based computer having a nominal space, which may be encrypted when the SED-based computer is shut down, and the pre-boot region. The SED management system comprises a pre-boot operating system (OS); at least one pre-boot library configured to support the pre-boot OS; and an unlocking software program configured to work with the pre-boot OS to transfer control directly to an operating system of the nominal space upon a successful authentication. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
