System and Method for Securely Updating Remaining Time or Subscription Data for a Rental Computer |
摘要 |
A system, method, and program product is provided that manages a rental computer system by verifying installation of a secure time-day module in a computer system. The computer system is rendered inoperable if the secure time-day module is not installed. A current time-day value is retrieved from the secure time-day module and an end time-day value is retrieved from a secure storage area. The current time-day value is compared to the end time-day value in order to determine whether a rental period has expired. If the rental period has expired, then the user is prevented from using the rental computer system.
