  • Patent number: 11237825
    Abstract: Live documentation mapping is described which includes tracking executed actions in the software program by an end user, tracking the end user's interaction with technical documentation, and tracking the end users other communication about a product. The tracked information is mapped to a virtual living/updating technical documentation of the software program. The tracked executed actions and updated technical documentation are then aggregated for a total install base of users for a software program and used to generate system reports for the software program including directives on how the system should react from a development and/or business direction.

  • Patent number: 11163883
    Abstract: A touch screen device includes a security enforcer that monitors the environment of the touch screen device and sets an appropriate security level for the touch screen device based on the monitored environment. The monitored conditions may include users and devices in physical proximity to the touch screen device. When the touch screen device is in physical proximity to users and/or devices the touch screen device does not recognize, the touch screen device elevates its security level. The touch screen device may include a system and application profiles that defines characteristics for enhancing the security of the touch screen device by changing locations of one or more selectable objects for authentication and by changing location of one or more selectable objects for applications based on one or more defined thresholds, or for making an icon unselectable or hidden based on an elevated security level of the touch screen device.
