发明名称 Removable memory storage device with multiple authentication processes
摘要 A method comprises providing first user authentication data of a user and comparing the first user authentication data to first stored template data. When the comparison is indicative of a match, a first session is provided, which supports one of user access for retrieving first data that are stored within a peripheral memory storage device and user access for modifying a data content of the peripheral memory storage device. The first session does not support the other one of user access for retrieving first data that are stored within the peripheral memory storage device and user access for modifying a data content of the peripheral memory storage device. During the first session, second user authentication data of the same user is provided and compared to second stored template data. When the comparison is indicative of a match, a second session is provided, which does support the other one of user access for retrieving first data that are stored within the peripheral memory storage device and user access for modifying the data content of the peripheral memory storage device.

主权项 1. A method comprising: receiving first user authentication data of a user for a peripheral memory storage device; comparing the first user authentication data to first stored template data and when the comparison is indicative of a first match providing a first session, the first session supporting read-only user access for retrieving data that are stored within the peripheral memory storage device, the first session other than supporting access for modifying a data content of the peripheral memory storage device; during the first session, receiving second user authentication data of the same user; and, comparing the second user authentication data to second stored template data and when the comparison is indicative of a second match providing a second session, the second session supporting read-and-write user access for retrieving and storing the data within the peripheral memory storage device, for which data the first session supports read-only user access, and for modifying the data content of the peripheral memory storage device in the second session, for which data content the first session does not support modification; wherein providing first user authentication data comprises providing biometric information, and wherein providing second user authentication data comprises providing a password.
