Abstract

A computer apparatus is remotely initiated. Confirmation of a detected and authenticated presence of a user is detected and confirmed remote from the computer apparatus. A dedicated resource that will be implemented using the computer apparatus is logged in in a protected workstate that prevents access to the computer apparatus until a local presence of the user is detected and authenticated. The workstate of the computer apparatus is unprotected upon confirmation of the local presence of the user. Access to the user is allowed upon unprotecting the workstate of the computer apparatus.
