A system includes a motherboard configured to hold electronic devices and allow communication between one or more of the electronic devices, a power supply module configured to supply power to the one or more electronic devices, a peripheral device communicatively coupled to the motherboard using a peripheral port of the motherboard to perform at least one action related to an Automated Teller Machine (ATM), and a monitoring device communicatively coupled to the motherboard. The monitoring device is configured to monitor a voltage associated with the peripheral device and detect when the monitored voltage does not match an expected voltage associated with the peripheral device. In response to the detecting, the monitoring device determines that an unauthorized activity associated with the peripheral device has occurred.

In one example, an electronic device may include a power source to supply power to a peripheral device, a sensor circuit to monitor a power consumption of the peripheral device, and a controller coupled to the sensor circuit to detect that the power consumption of the peripheral device is greater than a threshold and generate a popup message on a user interface of the electronic device based on the detection. The popup message may include an option. Further, the controller may direct the power source to continue to provide the power to the peripheral device in response to a determination that the option is selected prior to an expiration of a timer.

The present invention provides a glitch detector including a first inverter, second inverter, a charge sharing component and a warning flag generator. The first inverter is configured to receive a first signal at a first node to generate a second signal to a second node. The second inverter is configured to receive the second signal at the second node to generate the first signal to the first node. The charge sharing component is configured to selectively connect the first node to the second node. The warning flag generator is coupled to the first node or the second node, and configured to determine whether a supply voltage of the glitch detector suffers an under voltage glitch according to a voltage level of the first signal or a voltage level of the second signal, to determine whether to output a warning flag.

A laminate carrier-like module lid including multiple laminate layers of non-conductive materials stacked one atop another, sensor circuitry embedded within the laminate carrier-like module lid, the sensor circuitry providing a continuous electrical circuit surrounding the electronic components of the multi-chip module package, and thermal circuitry embedded within the laminate carrier-like module lid, the thermal circuitry comprising solid copper traces to thermally conduct heat from the electronic components of the multi-chip module package.

An Integrated Circuit (IC) includes a non-volatile memory (NVM) and secure power-up circuitry. The NVM is configured to store an operational state of the IC. The secure power-up circuitry is configured to (i) during a power-up sequence of the IC, perform a first readout of the operational state from the NVM while a supply voltage of the IC is within a first voltage range, (ii) if the operational state read from the NVM in the first readout is a state that permits access to a sensitive resource of the IC, verify that the supply voltage is within a second voltage range, more stringent than the first voltage range, and then perform a second readout of the operational state from the NVM, and (iii) initiate a responsive action in response to a discrepancy between the operational states read from the NVM in the first readout and in the second readout.

An initialization geo-locking system includes a chassis housing a location determination subsystem and an initialization management subsystem. During an initialization process that begins in response to receiving initialization power, the initialization management system determines that geo-locking is activated and, in response, causes power to be provided to the location determination subsystem and then subsequently identifies a first current location determined by the location determination subsystem. The initialization management subsystem then determines whether the first current location determined by the location determination subsystem corresponds to an authorized initialization location stored in the initialization management subsystem and, if so, halts the initialization process while, if not, allows the initialization process to complete.

An information handling system main board CMOS is powered by a CMOS battery, such as to keep a real time clock during a power off state, with the battery ground passed through a ground pad so that ground to the CMOS is incomplete until a coupling device, such as a screw, couples the main board to an information handling system housing. A bi-stable relay couples to the main board between the CMOS battery positive terminal and the CMOS to prevent application of power by the CMOS battery to the CMOS after closing of the ground until an embedded controller that is powered on the main board commands closing of the bi-stable relay.
