  • Publication number: 20180054461
    Abstract: In one aspect, a device includes a processor and storage accessible to the processor. The storage bears instructions executable by the processor to determine that an attempt has occurred of unauthorized access to a computer system having a computer interface for presentation to an authorized user. The instructions are also executable to, responsive to determining that an attempt has occurred of unauthorized access to the computer system, return from the computer system a proxy interface instead of the computer interface, the proxy interface permitting access to at least partially falsified data.

  • Publication number: 20180046889
    Abstract: For ensuring the integrity of a physical document, an apparatus is disclosed. A system, method, and program product also perform the functions of the apparatus. The apparatus for ensuring the integrity of a physical document includes a processor, a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The processor identifies an integrity symbol within a physical document, the first integrity symbol representative of content of the physical document, and converts the integrity symbol into an integrity map having at least two values, the integrity symbol being a symbolic representation of the integrity map suitable for printing. The processor compares content of the physical document to the integrity map to verify integrity of the physical document.

  • Publication number: 20180048631
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, methods, and program products are disclosed for transaction based networks security. A data module determines a set of data that is common between a first device and a second device. A key module generates, on a first device, a communication key based on a set of data. A message module secures a message sent to a second device from a first device with a communication key. A second device accepts a message in response to a communication key matching a corresponding communication key generated on the second device.
