Abstract:
An information handling system security system presents a combination lock user interface at a display with numbers depicted at a perimeter of a totem placed on the display. Rotational movement of the totem relative to the perimeter selects security code inputs to unlock access to the information handling system. Random placement of the numbers at the perimeter and totem unique values provide additional security that help prevent hacking of the security code through mimicking of inputs actions by an unauthorized observer.
