Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to facilitate secure screen input. An example disclosed system includes a user interface (UI) manager to generate a UI comprising a quantity of ordinal entry points, each one of the quantity of ordinal entry points comprising a repeating selectable pattern, an ordinal sequence generator to generate an initial randomized combination of the quantity of ordinal entry points, the randomized combination stored in a trusted execution environment, and an offset calculator to calculate a password entry value by comparing an offset value and direction value retrieved from the UI with the initial randomized combination of the quantity of ordinal entry points.

Abstract: A method and a system for extending distributed logon services to an off-line computing device includes encrypting, on the off-line computing device, a one-time password (OTP), a nonce, and a unique identifier to generate an authorization request message. Using a mobile device as a proxy to forward the authorization request message to an access control server for authorization. Decrypting the authorization response message to obtain the nonce. Re-encrypting the nonce to generate an authorization response message. Using the mobile device as a proxy to forward the authorization response message to the off-line computing device. Decrypting the authorization response message to obtain the nonce. Comparing the nonce obtained from the authorization response message with the original nonce. The computing device to permit or deny access as result of comparing the nonce obtained from the authorization response message with the original nonce.

Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for generating image data representing a storage region in a commercial establishment. In an embodiment, image recognition analysis of first image data detects a difference between respective states of inventory storage represented by different areas of a captured image. In another embodiment, other image data is generated to represent a modified version of the image, wherein, based on the detected difference, a filter is applied to only one two portions of the first image data.

Abstract: A mole analysis program generates a digital signature for a first mole, based on a digital image of first, second, and third moles. The program may then determine whether the first mole matches a previously imaged mole, based on the digital signature for the first mole and baseline data with baseline signatures for previously imaged moles. In response to determining that the first mole matches a previously imaged mole, the program may automatically determine whether the first mole has changed. In various embodiments, the digital signature may include angle entries for the digital signature and/or distance entries for the first signature. An angle entry may represent an angle between two lines to connect the first mole with the second mole and the third mole. A distance entry may correspond to the distance between the first mole and the second mole. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In some embodiments an external device includes a coupler that is able to be coupled to a computing device, and an eject button to signal the computing device that a user wishes to safely uncouple the coupler from the computing device. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In some embodiments a request is received from a user for access to information stored in a storage device. A determination is made if a more recent version of the information is stored at a service provider. If a more recent version of the information is stored at the service provider, then the most recent version of the information stored at the service provider is provided to the user. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In some embodiments information stored in a user storage device is sent to a service provider for backup, and a modified version of information stored in the user storage device is received from the service provider, where the modified version has been created by a remote user. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
