An initial image associated with a stored profile of the user is presented on a display device. Input including a manipulation of the initial image to transform the initial image to a manipulated initial image is received on an input device. The user is authenticated in response to the manipulated initial image sufficiently matching a target manipulated image associated with the stored profile of the user. Optionally, prior to presenting the initial image, a facial image of the user is captured. The user is identified by applying a facial recognition technique to the captured facial image of the user. The display device is arranged to present the initial image in response to identifying the user as having a stored profile.

User authentication via image manipulation

Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine readable mediums which provide a security rating to an STA for a WLAN AP. Prior to connecting to an AP, the STA employs pre-connection logic in the STA to identify likely safe and likely unsafe APs. Once the user connects to an AP, the STA connects first in an untrusted mode. In the untrusted mode, the STA uses the network connectivity provided by the AP to establish a secure connection to a network-based WLAN trust service for post-connection security checks. If the AP passes the post-connection security checks, the STA may allow other applications to access the network connection provided by the AP.

Wireless hotspot attack detection

Disclosed in some examples are systems, methods, devices, and machine readable mediums which may produce an audio recording with included verification from the individuals in the recording that the recording is accurate. In some examples, the system may also provide rights management control to those individuals. This may ensure that individuals participating in audio events that are to be recorded are assured that their words are not changed, taken out of context, or otherwise altered and that they retain control over the use of their words even after the physical file has left their control.

Collaborative audio conversation attestation

Various systems and methods for authenticating users via image manipulation are described herein. An initial image associated with a stored profile of a user may be presented on a display device. Input including a manipulation of the initial image to transform the initial image to a manipulated initial image is received on an input device. The user is authenticated in response to the manipulated initial image sufficiently matching a target manipulated image associated with the stored profile of the user. Prior to presenting the initial image, a facial image of the user may be captured. The user is identified by applying a facial recognition technique to the captured facial image of the user. The display device is arranged to present the initial image in response to identifying the user as having a stored profile.

Interacting with a television program includes beginning playback of the program for perception by a user, analyzing the program to detect a cue within the program, automatically pausing playback of the program when the cue is detected, accepting user input data in response to the cue, resuming playback of the program when the user input data is received, and comparing the user input data to a non-user response. Interactivity provided by the program analysis, pausing playback, accepting user input data, resuming playback, and comparing operations supports execution of at least one of an entertainment application and an educational application at a user's site without requiring modification of the television program by a program provider.
