| 20090153292 | BUSINESS AND SOFTWARE SECURITY AND STORAGE METHODS, DEVICES AND APPLICATIONS - The current invention describes methods and apparatuses for providing improved security for access to networks, on and off the Internet. A series of sign-in options configured according to several parameters prevent several types of automatic hacking. The nature of the choices for access, the method of controlling one's choices, and the method of randomization are new. Devices for applying these options include data-processing units such as computers and cell phones to which these methods are written. Some applications of increased security are online storage solutions, web-based email, and a shopping cart system. One particular combination of these applications that is discussed is the integration of web-based email with online storage for other files as well. | 06-18-2009 |
