  • Publication number: 20240103970
    Abstract: In an example, a computing device includes a processor which in a reimaging operation of the computing device, may determine if a backup image to be used in the reimaging operation is available from a memory device connected to a local area network of the computing device. When the backup image is available from the memory device, the processor may acquire the backup image over the local area network. When the backup image is not available from the memory device, the processor may determine if a backup image is available from a wide area network of the computing device.

  • Publication number: 20210357484
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to authentication invirtual reality systems. For example, a device comprising a generator engine can generate a stimulus, and display the stimulus to the user in a virtual environment. The device can receive an input from the user in response to the stimulus, via a receiver engine, and authenticate the user based on the input received via an authentication engine. Additionally, the device can obfuscate the received input from the user by preventing the input from being displayed in the virtual environment via an obfuscation engine.
