Patent ID: 8904473

Claim:
An apparatus for displaying information output of a host computer, the apparatus comprising: a display panel for displaying the information output using pixel data received from the host computer; a sensor for capturing physical information about a user proximate to the display panel; an integrated circuit defined to control when to present the received information output to the display panel, wherein the integrated circuit periodically authenticates the user with the captured physical information, the integrated circuit configured to analyze both the information output from the host computer and the physical information to determine if the user is authorized to access the information output, wherein the integrated circuit disables display of the information output by the display panel when the integrated circuit determines that the user is unauthorized to access the information output; a communications device for transmitting a log to a remote server, the log including details regarding content included in the information output, the physical information captured when presenting the information output, and user inputs associated with the information output, such that a relationship link is made between the user, the information output and the user inputs, the communications device transmitting the log to the remote server without communicating through the host computer, wherein entries in the log are updated at predetermined intervals and when a security event is detected; and a housing, wherein the display panel, the sensor, the integrated circuit and the communications device are defined within the housing.
