Abstract
Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for detecting an identifier communication from a writing implement and transitioning a previously modified interior page of an electronic notepad from a locked state to an unlocked state if the identifier communication corresponds to one or more stored identifiers. Moreover, a plurality of additional interior pages of the electronic notepad may be maintained in the locked state while the previously modified interior page is in the unlocked state.
Claims24
A system comprising:
- a writing implement;
- a display to present an electronic notepad;
- a memory subsystem to store one or more identifiers;
- and
- a notepad management apparatus comprising,
- an implement monitor to detect an identifier communication originating from the writing implement;
- a current page access controller to transition a previously modified interior page of the electronic notepad from a locked state to an unlocked state if the identifier communication corresponds to the stored one or more identifiers;
- and
- a security manager to maintain a plurality of additional interior pages of the electronic notepad in the locked state while the previously modified interior page is in the unlocked state.
An apparatus comprising:
- an implement monitor to detect an identifier communication originating from a writing implement;
- a current page access controller to transition a previously modified interior page of an electronic notepad from a locked state to an unlocked state if the identifier communication corresponds to one or more stored identifiers;
