<p>A computer system (10) comprises computer apparatus (12) incorporating the first and second electronic components (20, 22) and is electrically connected to a security device (14) which is associated with a non-volatile store (16) and components (12 and 14) are interconnected via a security bus (18). The security device (14) is used to protect at least one of the first electronic component (20) and the second electronic component (22) from theft and unauthorised re-use. Typically component (20) is a microprocessor for generating instructions and component (22) is a memory module for receiving instructions and outputting signals in consequence, the components (20, 22) being interconnected by a further bus (24).</p> |
