Abstract: A security system for electronic circuits (e.g. electronic circuits contained within a secure POS terminal) is provided that is both more tamper resistant, and tamper responsive and less expensive than the prior art epoxy potting. This is achieved by inserting an electrical connector between a first and a second circuit board contained within a case of the POS terminal. The first and the second circuit boards are any type of circuit board known in the art, including both not limited to, rigid circuit boards, flexible circuit boards, printed circuit boards, etc. If the case is opened the connector no longer provides an electrical connection between the first and the second circuit boards, triggering a tamper detection circuit. In some embodiments of the invention, a flexible conductive film is wrapped around the circuit boards and the connector.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for managing sensitive data. In one embodiment, sensitive data are managed in a circuit arrangement that includes a processor, a RAM, a register, a security circuit, and a power supply. The power supply is arranged to provide power from a first power source when power is available from the first source and from a second power source when power is unavailable from the first source. The processor initially stores the sensitive data in the RAM while operating with power from the first source. Upon loss of power from the first source, the power supply provides power from the second source, and the processor copies the sensitive data from the slow discharging RAM to the register and erases the sensitive data from the RAM. If the second power source is removed, the processor clears the sensitive data from the register. When the security circuit detects an attack on the circuit arrangement, the processor erases the sensitive data from the RAM and from the register.

Abstract: Portable transaction terminal apparatus adapted for use in eating and drinking establishments. A terminal housing has a generally rectangular shape and a size slightly larger in length and width to corresponding dimensions of a restaurant guest check. A folio-type cover is mounted to a left side portion of the terminal housing by a hinge arrangement and thereby adapted to swing between open and closed cover positions, the cover corresponding in length and width to the terminal housing so as to completely cover a top face of the terminal housing in the closed cover position and to lie flat against a surface in the open cover position. A data entry keypad and an alphanumeric display are carried on the top face of the terminal housing. A card reader module is mounted in the terminal housing for accepting and reading a transaction data card selected for use by a guest of the establishment for payment of the amount of the guest check.
