Abstract

A client/server system has a client platform adapted to provide restricted use of data provided by a serve. The client platform comprises a display, secure communications means, and a memory containing image receiving code for receiving data from a server by the secure communication means and for display of such data. The client platform is adapted such that the data received from a server is used for display of the data and not for an unauthorised purpose. A server adapted to provide data to a client platform for restricted use by the client platform comprises a memory containing image sending code for providing an image of data executed on the server, and secure communications means for secure communication of images of data to a client platform. The server is adapted to determine that a client platform is adapted to ensure restricted use of the data before it is sent by the image sending code.
