Abstract: For confining data to particular set of data servers based on a location restriction of the data, systems, apparatus, methods, and program products are disclosed. The apparatus may include a storage device for storing data, a processor, and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. In one embodiment, the processor identifies a location restriction of the data, encrypt. In another embodiment, the processor encrypts the data. In a further embodiment, the processor confines the data to particular set of data servers based on the location restriction.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: obtaining, using a sensor, biometric data of a user; determining, using a processor, that the biometric data of the user does not match biometric data of a known user; and adjusting, based on the biometric data of the user, a vehicle setting. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: In one aspect, a first device includes a processor and storage accessible to the processor. The storage bears instructions executable by the processor to analyze an electrical characteristic associated with an apparatus and perform one or more actions pertaining to authentication of the apparatus based on the analysis of the electrical characteristic.

Abstract: For validating computing device firmware, systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed. The apparatus includes a processor, and a memory that stores code executable by the processor, the code including code that acquires a firmware manifest for locally stored firmware, authenticates a digital signature of the firmware manifest, and validates contents of the locally stored firmware using the firmware manifest. The apparatus may also include code that generates a local firmware manifest from the firmware, wherein validating the contents of the firmware includes comparing the local firmware manifest to the firmware manifest. In certain embodiments, the apparatus may indicate, to a user, one of success and failure of the firmware validation. The firmware manifest may be a location-specific firmware manifest corresponding to a geographical location of the apparatus and/or computing device including the locally stored firmware.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: obtaining, using a sensor, biometric data of a user; determining, using a processor, that the biometric data of the user does not match biometric data of a known user; and securing, based on the biometric data of the user, an area within a building. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: In one aspect, a device includes a processor and storage accessible to the processor. The storage bears instructions executable by the processor to determine that an attempt has occurred of unauthorized access to a computer system having a computer interface for presentation to an authorized user. The instructions are also executable to, responsive to determining that an attempt has occurred of unauthorized access to the computer system, return from the computer system a proxy interface instead of the computer interface, the proxy interface permitting access to at least partially falsified data.
