Abstract: A network initialization communication storage system includes a host device coupled to a storage system and an initialization issue analysis system via a network. The host device includes an initialization subsystem coupled to each of a plurality of ports. During network initialization of the host device via the storage system, the initialization subsystem identifies network initialization communications transmitted via the port(s) and the network, filters the network initialization communications to remove a subset of network initialization information and provide filtered network initialization communications, and transmits the filtered network initialization communications for storage in a remote access controller subsystem in the host device.

Abstract: A method may include, in an information handling system comprising a basic input/output system (BIOS) embodied in non-transitory computer-readable media and configured to be the first code executed by a processor when the information handling system is booted and configured to initialize components of the information handling system into a known state: receiving an indication of installation of a protocol by a producer driver of a plurality of protocol drivers integral to the BIOS, storing metadata regarding the protocol in a protocol database of the BIOS, receiving a request to consume the protocol by a consumer driver of the plurality of protocol drivers, and obfuscating the metadata stored in the protocol database from the consumer driver to prevent the consumer driver from uninstalling the protocol.

Abstract: A method and a system for protecting data of a storage unit are disclosed for use in a data processing device. A user identification module encodes and encrypts a password preset by the user and stores the encoded and encrypted password into the storage unit. Next, the user identification module encodes and encrypts partition table data read from a memory unit and stores the encoded and encrypted partition table data in a predetermined location of the storage unit. Then, the user identification module deletes the partition table data stored in the memory unit. Finally, when the user re-starts power of the data processing device and inputs a password consistent with the preset password, the user identification module decodes and decrypts the partition table data stored in the storage unit and writes the decoded and decrypted partition table data to the memory unit to thereby perform booting operation.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a stand-alone scanner capable of sending scanned images to USB (Universal Serial Bus) compliant devices for printing, storage, and transmission without the need of a computer host CPU. One embodiment of the invention is an external USB host that enables existing scanners without USB host functionality to host a variety of USB devices.
