Embodiment Construction

[0031] figure 1 It is a flow chart of the system operation method using hardware lock according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0032] Please refer to figure 1 , the method for operating a system using a hardware lock in this embodiment is applied to an electronic device having at least one connection unit.

[0033] In the method for operating a system using a hardware lock according to the present embodiment, the first step (step 20 ) starts up the electronic device to run a Basic I / O System (BIOS).

[0034] Wherein, the method for starting the electronic device can be by turning on the power actuator (such as: power switch, power button, etc. or plugging a hardware device with a Universal Serial Bus (Universal Serial Bus, USB) interface into the electronic device correspondingly. connection port), or other means to activate the electronic device.

[0035] Among them, using a hardware device with a Universal Serial Bus (Universal Serial Bus, USB) interf...

Abstract

The invention relates to a system operation method using a hardware lock and an electronic device which is started by using the hardware lock. The method comprises the following steps of: detecting the connection state of connection units; reading each hardware identification (ID) code of a hardware device which is connected with the connection units and comparing a key ID code with a hardware ID code which are stored in the electronic device; when the hardware ID code is matched with the key ID code, performing a startup program of the electronic device; when all the connection units are not connected with the hardware device, shutting down the electronic device; and when the key ID code which is not matched with the hardware ID code exists, shutting down the electronic device. Therefore, the electronic device is started by plugging the hardware lock and whether the hardware lock is plugged is continuously detected, so a data protection function is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a system operation method, in particular to a system operation method using a hardware lock and an electronic device started by using the hardware lock. Background technique [0002] As the concept of intellectual property rights has become more and more popular, developers of both hardware and software have invested a lot of manpower and materials to develop ways to protect software or hardware usage rights. [0003] In the past, in order to protect the data in the electronic device and prevent the data in the electronic device from being stolen by those who want to steal it, you can set a power-on password in the operating system (such as Windows window operating system, Linux operating system, etc.) running on the electronic device. In order to prevent other people from using the operating system to steal data in the hard disk; or setting a standby password in the operating system, when the owner of the electronic device tem...
