Abstract: A computing device configured for authenticating a remote computing device is described. The computing device includes a processor and executable instructions stored in memory that is in electronic communication with the processor. The computing device detects a biometric device on the remote computing device. The computing device also obtains information regarding the biometric device on the remote computing device. The computing device further sends a utility to the remote computing device. The computer device additionally receives biometric input from the remote computing device. The computing device furthermore validates the biometric input received. The computing device also grants or denies access to the remote computing device based on the validation of the biometric input.

Abstract: The invention embeds an emulation module in removable media, for use in replicating an operating environment on a laptop or other remote machines. The emulation module prompts the user to capture environmental settings on an originating machine, such as display settings, network settings, input/output, applications, working data files and other parameters on a removable media. The user may then insert the removable media in a compatible reader attached to the laptop or other secondary or host machine, and upon activation of the emulation module reproduce the screen display, applications, data files and other resources on the host machine. When the user is finished working on the host machine, the emulation module may restore the settings of the operating environment on that machine to their preexisting state. Working data may be synchronized between the originating and host machines.
