摘要： A system for monitoring tamper events in a computer system is disclosed. The computer system is on a network. The system comprises a tamper real time clock (RTC) means which receives at least one tamper event signal from the computer system. The tamper RTC means includes a timer for indicating the time of a tamper event and a management device for receiving the at least one tamper event signal. The management device issues a command to the tamper RTC means to obtain the time of the at least one tamper event. The management device also generates a network packet which includes the time of the tamper event to a system administrator of the network. The present invention in a preferred embodiment is directed to a computer system which has the ability to functionally detect and store the time of a tamper event. A tamper real time clock (RTC) circuit is operatively connected with logic to store the date and time of an event as it occurs. In a preferred embodiment, the tamper event could be as simple as a toggle switch being activated when a cover on the computer system is removed. The computer system could also send network alerts when the cover is removed.

摘要： A system and method for monitoring tamper events in a computer system in accordance with the present invention is disclosed. The system comprises a detector means for detecting at least one tamper event and for providing an indication when the tamper event has occurred for longer than a predetermined time period. The system also includes an adapter means coupled to the detector means for receiving the indication and for disabling the computer system. The present invention is directed to a computer system, which has the ability to functionally determine if a tamper event is authorized and therefore allows the computer to operate after such an event. In a preferred embodiment, the tamper event could be as simple as a toggle switch being activated when the cover of the personal computer is removed.

摘要： Described is a computer system which is coupled to a remote computer via a data communication link. The computer system has a normally closed enclosure and is capable of securing data retained within the system against unauthorized access. The computer system includes an erasable memory element mounted within the enclosure for selective activation to active and inactive states and for receiving and storing a security password when in the active state. A manually operable option switch is mounted within the enclosure. The option switch is operatively connected with the erasable memory element and manually settable by a user of the computer system for setting the erasable memory element to the active and inactive states. A communication line detector is operatively connected with the erasable memory element for detecting a disconnection of the data communication link and for clearing any stored security password from the erasable memory element in response to a change of the communication link detector between a first state and a second state.

摘要： A system and method for installing a customized set of software on a personal computer, tailored to the requirements of the prospective user and avoiding unnecessary software and attendant license fees. Software (all that may be desired) in unusable form is loaded onto the personal computer then selected software (that which a particular user may require and/or desire) is converted (decompressed and/or decrypted) to produce usable versions of the selected software while the other software may be erased, if desired, to free up space in storage. The selection of software is done on the user's function (department and/or mission) and may be supplemented by a user selection from a menu, based on a selection utility.

摘要： A method for determining the physical locations of a plurality of computers in a network is disclosed. The network includes a plurality of wall plates, each of the wall plates for coupling one of the computers to the network. The method and system comprises providing an additional information physical layer and logic in each of the wall plates. The method and system further comprises capturing and storing the system media access-controller (MAC) address of the connect computer in the additional logic of each of the plurality of wall plates and storing a physical address of the wall plate in the logic of each of the plurality of wall plates. The method and system also comprises providing a command from the network that will cause the system MAC address and the physical address of at least one of the plurality of computers to be provided to an application in the network. A system and method in accordance with the present invention adds a low cost physical layer and logic within an Ethernet wall plate associated with the computer on the network. The logic is designed to respond to a broadcast signal to a UDP (User Datagram Protocol) port. In so doing the physical location of the computer can be determined. In a preferred embodiment, a command is provided from the network that will cause the MAC address and the physical address of at least one of the plurality of computers to be provided to an inventory application in the network, thereby allowing a network administrator to remotely determine the physical location (room, floor, building, etc.) of any and all computers attached to the network.

摘要： Aspects for providing protection against theft and loss of a portable computer system are described. The aspects include establishing boundary conditions within which the portable computer system is authorized for use and tracking a position of the portable computer system with a global position system (GPS) unit in the portable computer system. The position is compared to the boundary conditions to identify whether the portable computer system has violated the boundary conditions, and anti-theft routines are performed when the position has violated the boundary conditions. The anti-theft routines include calling a preset phone number with a cellular calling facility of the portable computer system.

A computer of an embodiment of the invention includes a chassis and a basic input/output system (BIOS), or another type of firmware. The chassis has an openable cover, and circuitry indicating when the openable cover has been opened. The BIOS has a non-volatile memory in which a flag is set when the circuitry indicates that the openable cover has been opened. The computer may further include always-on circuitry, such as time-of-day and real-time clock circuitry, to which the circuitry indicating when the openable cover has been opened is electrically connected. The computer may also include one or more encryption and/or signing modules that encrypt and/or sign data according to one or more keys. The keys are rendered invalid when the cover of the chassis has been opened.

摘要： A timeout mechanism for a computer system is provided, comprising a clocked linear feedback shift register and a programmable comparing mechanism. The linear feedback shift register comprises a series of latches serially connected to each other, and is responsive to a received interrupt signal to (i) incrementally count sequentially in the presence of the interrupt signal to provide a distinct binary vector array at the outputs of the latches for each count in the sequence and (ii) reset to a particular binary vector array in the absence of the interrupt signal. The comparing mechanism outputs a timeout command in response to the linear feedback shift register reaching a predetermined count and outputting a corresponding predetermined binary vector array at the output of the latches. The timeout mechanism uses a minimal amount of combinatorial logic, while permitting the issuance of a timeout command after the detection of an interrupt signal after any multiple of clock cycles.
