A platform protected by an always-available security system, the system is described. The system, in one embodiment, comprises a near field communications (NFC) reader, a pairing logic to identify an NFC device as an authorized device for arming and disarming the system, an arming logic to arm the system upon receipt of an arming command, and a disarming logic to disarm the system upon receipt of a disarming command, wherein the arming command and the disarming command may use the NFC device, and wherein the NFC reader is powered in a plurality of power states, enabling disarming and arming of the platform in the plurality of power states.
This patent application is a U.S. National Phase Application under 35 U.S.C.
371 of International Application No. PCT/US2011/067061, filed Dec. 22, 2011, entitled ALWAYS-AVAILABLE EMBEDDED THEFT REACTION SUBSYSTEM.
1. A platform protected by a-security system, the platform comprising:
a plurality of interfaces including a Bluetooth sensor, a motion detector, and a short range near field communications (NFC) reader, wherein the NFC reader to detect a pattern and a timing of tapping on the platform by a NFC device, the NFC device comprising a unique identifier;
a pairing logic to identify an NFC device as an authorized device for arming and disarming the security system by authenticating the unique identifier of the NFC device; and detecting the pattern and the timing of tapping on the platform by the NFC device;
a risk behavior logic to identify a potential risk behavior, when the system is armed; and a core logic to evaluate the risk behavior and determine whether a security action logic should take an action;
an arming logic to arm the security system upon receipt of an arming command; a disarming logic to disarm the security system upon receipt of a disarming command; wherein the arming command and the disarming command to use the detected pattern and the timing of tapping on the platform by the NFC device; and
wherein the platform to be powered in a plurality of power states such that power is removed from a subset of the plurality of interfaces that are not relevant to a power state of the plurality of power states, and the NFC reader is to be available in a low power mode of the platform, enabling the security system to be armed and disarmed without powering up the platform;
whereby the NFC reader makes it difficult to eavesdrop on the NFC communications by operating at a short range.
2. The platform of claim 1, wherein the arming command is performed with the NFC device.
3. The platform of claim 2, wherein the arming command is tapping the platform with the NFC device.
4. The platform of claim 1, wherein the arming command comprises one or more of: setting a sticky button, setting a non-sticky button, pressing some combination of keys, tapping with the NFC device, closing a lid of the platform, and invoking the system through a software application.
5. The platform of claim 1, wherein the risk behavior comprises one of: movement when the user leaves a stationary platform, or loss of proximity with a paired device.
6. A security system, the system comprising:
a plurality of interfaces including a Bluetooth sensor, a motion detector, and a short range near field communications (NFC) reader, wherein the NFC reader to detect a pattern and a timing of tapping on the platform by a NFC device;
a pairing logic to authenticate the NFC device as an authorized device for the system and to pair with that NFC device by detecting the pattern and the timing of tapping on the platform by the NFC device and;
a disarming logic to disarm the system upon receipt of a disarming command; wherein the disarming command to be generated by detecting the pattern and the timing of tapping on the platform by the paired NFC device, and wherein the disarming command to be received in a plurality of power states such that the NFC device is available in a low power mode of the platform, enabling the security system to be armed and disarmed without powering up the platform by detecting the pattern and the timing of tapping on the platform by the paired NFC device;
wherein power is removed from a subset of the plurality of interfaces that are not relevant to a power state of the plurality of power states.
7. The system of claim 6, wherein an arming command is to be performed with the NFC device.
8. The system of claim 7, wherein the arming command is tapping the platform with the NFC device.
9. The system of claim 6, wherein an arming command comprises one or more of: setting a sticky button, setting a non-sticky button, pressing some combination of keys, tapping with the NFC device, closing a lid of the platform, and invoking the system through a software application.
10. The system of claim 6, wherein the risk behavior comprises one of:
movement when the user leaves a stationary platform, or loss of proximity with a paired device.
11. A method of protecting a platform with a-security system, the method comprising:
in a platform low power state, removing power from a subset of a plurality of interfaces that are not relevant to a power state of the plurality of power states, the plurality of interfaces including a Bluetooth sensor, a motion detector, and a short range near field communications (NFC) reader, wherein the NFC reader to detect a pattern and a timing of tapping on the platform by a NFC device, the NFC device comprising a unique identification;
identifying a potential risk behavior, when the system is armed; and
evaluating the risk behavior and determining whether a security action logic should take an action;
receiving a disarming command at a near field communications (NFC) reader, the disarming command being generated by authenticating the unique identification of the NFC device and detecting the pattern and the timing of tapping of the NFC device on the platform and indicating a presence of an authorized user; and
disarming the system, in response to the disarming command;
receiving an arming command, comprising one or more of: setting a sticky button, setting a non-sticky button, pressing some combination of keys, using the NFC device, closing a lid of the platform, and invoking the system through a software application.
13. The method of claim 11, wherein the disarming command comprises tapping with the NFC device.
