SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SECURE EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION IN A COMPUTER SYSTEM

摘要

A system and method for secure exchange of information in a computing system is described. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving a request to switch to a safe mode from a target application. Encryption/decryption keystring is generated based on the request. The target application is responded with the decryption keystring. A key-stroke is encrypted using the encryption keystring. The encrypted key-stroke is stored in a keyboard buffer. The target application retrieves the encrypted key-stroke and decrypts the encrypted key-stroke using the decryption keystring.
