Abstract

Pre-boot authentication at an information handling system is selectively bypassed based upon conditions detected at the information handling system that indicate a trusted environment. A security monitor integrated with the pre-boot authentication system detects predetermined conditions that authorize bypassing of the pre-boot authentication, such as location, behavior or password type indications of a trusted environment. In one embodiment, a password is input with touches to match a timing and position passcode, such as by mimicking a musical rhythm.
