Abstract
In one embodiment a controller comprises logic configured to logic configured to define, on a region of a display device, a dialog box, lock the region of the display device on which the dialog box is defined to limit access to an input operation through the dialog box, receive a password from at least one input mechanism in the dialog box, and apply an authentication tag to an image when the password is confirmed. Other embodiments may be described.
Claims28
A controller, comprising:
- logic configured to:
- define, on a region of a display device, a dialog box;
- lock the region of the display device on which the dialog box is defined to limit access to an input operation through the dialog box;
- receive a password from at least one input mechanism in the dialog box;
- and
- apply an authentication tag to an image when the password is confirmed.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a display device;
- a processor;
- and
- a controller comprising:
- logic configured to:
- define, on a region of a display device coupled to the controller, a dialog box;
- lock the region of the display device on which the dialog box is defined to limit access to an input operation through the dialog box;
- receive a password from at least one input mechanism in the dialog box;
- and
- apply an authentication tag to an image when the password is confirmed.
A computer program product comprising logic instructions stored on a tangible computer readable medium which, when executed by a controller, configure the secure controller to:
- define, on a region of a display device, a dialog box;
- lock the region of the display device on which the dialog box is to limit access to an input operation through the dialog box;
- receive a password from at least one input mechanism in the dialog box;
- and
- apply an authentication tag to an image when the password is confirmed.
A method, comprising:
- defining, on a region of a display device coupled to the controller, a dialog box;
- locking the region of the display device on which the dialog box is defined to limit access to an input operation through the dialog box;
- receiving a password from at least one input mechanism in the dialog box;
- and
- applying an authentication tag to an image when the password is confirmed.
