Abstract: Example implementations relate to a retail point of sale (RPOS) device and cloud service. An example system can include an RPOS agent controller and a cloud service controller communicatively coupled to one another. The cloud service controller can provide a notification of a state of the RPOS device.

Abstract: Examples herein disclose erasing data from a target device based upon an authentication of an erase command. The examples receive an erase command during execution to boot strap information and authenticate the erase command. Upon the authentication of the erase command, the examples erase data from the target device prior to completion of execution of boot strap information.

Abstract: Included are embodiments for assignment and failover of resources. More specifically, at least one embodiment of a method includes assigning, to a user of an access device (202), at least one primary resource (210, 212). Some embodiments include assigning, to the user of the access device (202), at least one backup resource (210, 212).

Abstract: A system and method for deploying resources to users. A system includes a computer that executes a resource deployment manager. The resource deployment manager provides an interface for selecting a remote user to whom a central resource is to be assigned, and for selecting a template upon which to base the assignment of the resource to the selected user. Further, the resource deployment manager assigns the central resources to the selected user based on the selected template.

Abstract: In one embodiment a computing system comprises one or more processors, a display device coupled to the computing system, and a memory module communicatively connected to the one or more processors. The memory module comprises logic to receive, in a connection server, a service request from a user via a remote connection client, wherein the service request comprises at least one of a user credential, a connection client identifier, and a layout identifier, authenticate, in the connection server, the user credential and the connection client identifier, retrieve, in the connection server, a user profile associated with the user, a connection client layout associated with the layout identifier, connection data for at least one remote system, and a policy associated with the user profile, and transmit the user profile, the connection client layout, a remote system and the connection data for a remote system and a policy associated with the user profile from the connection server to the remote connection client.

Abstract: A system and method for administering access to a central resource by a remote access device. A system includes a remote access device and a computer executing a hierarchical policy manager. The remote access device requests access to a central resource. The hierarchical policy manager determines a policy for allowing the device to access the resource by evaluating access policies at a plurality of precedence levels of a policy hierarchy. The hierarchical policy manager allows the device to access the resource based on the policy set at the highest precedence level of the policy hierarchy at which access control is specified.
