摘要:
A technique for providing a software patch to an associated computer system includes receiving, at a wireless communication device, a communication. Next, it is determined, at the wireless communication device, whether the communication is associated with a software patch available for the associated computer system. When the communication is associated with the software patch, a notification is sent from the wireless communication device to the associated computer system that the software patch is available.

Methods and arrangements for facilitating and streamlining patch management in “road warrior” and analogous contexts. Particularly, there are broadly contemplated herein, in accordance with at least one presently preferred embodiment of the present invention, methods and arrangements for facilitating determinations of suitable times for enabling system updates and/or downloads.

A mobile device, such as a laptop or notebook computer, capable of booting from at least two environments. If a remote environment is present, the mobile device may boot from the remote environment. The mobile device may also boot from the local environment.

摘要:
Arrangements for employing a system BIOS (basic input/output system) to handle email during a suspended state (such as an “S3” state as will be better understood herebelow). Preferably, the BIOS is employed to “jump” between two suspended images such that, e.g., two more powerful OS's can be employed to manage the mail function.
摘要:
Methods and arrangements for managing a flash drive, hard disk, or connection between the two, in a manner to ensure that sensitive data is not decrypted at any time when it would be vulnerable. Accordingly, in a first implementation, the data may preferably be encrypted as it first goes into a flash drive and decrypted when it comes out of the flash drive. In another implementation, the flash drive may be logically bound to the hard disk, so that they would both use the same encryption key. In yet another implementation, if a hard disk is moved to another system, then the flash drive may also preferably be simultaneously moved.
