<p>A method and apparatus for accessing a remote server (120) by using a secured and self-contained environment are described. In one or more environments, the software (313), for secure transferring or accessing of information to or from Internet resources, is on portable storage media, e.g., a memory flash card. In one or more environments, the operating system (315), for rebooting a computer or public terminal to access the remote server, is on bootable media, e.g., a floppy disk. This invention is invulnerable to attacks by a preceding user of the computer system, as all communication software is freshly loaded from trusted portable media (340). Thus, while the software stored on the portable storage media remains intact, all sensitive data will remain uncorrupted and immune against attacks by perpetrators.</p> |
