Information handling system display security access through totem interactions

1. An information handling system comprising:

a processor operable to execute instructions to generate visual information;

a memory interfaced with the processor, the memory operable to store the information;

a graphics processor interfaced with the processor and operable to process the visual information to generate pixel information, the pixel information defining visual images for presentation on the display;

a display interfaced with the graphics processor and operable to present the visual images, the display having a touchscreen operable to detect touches;

a controller interfaced with the display touchscreen and operable to interpret touches as inputs; and

a non-transitory memory storing a security module having instructions that when executed on the controller generate a user interface presented on the display, the user interface having a perimeter, the perimeter having symbols disposed in a randomly selected of plural orders, the user interface accepting a security code input by movement of the user interface and the symbols relative to each other.

2. The information handling system of claim 1 further comprising:

a totem disposed on the display, the controller operable to detect totem touches to determine totem rotational orientation; and

a combination lock visual image presented at the user interface;

wherein the symbols comprise numbers and the security code comprises a combination lock code input by rotation of the combination lock visual image.

3. The information handling system of claim 2 wherein the numbers are presented in numeric order around the perimeter and the plural orders comprise plural different numbers located at a top of the combination lock visual image.

4. The information handling system of claim 2 wherein the totem comprises plural feet in contact with the display, the security module selecting the order based at least in part on an orientation associated with the plural feet.

5. The information handling system of claim 2 wherein the totem includes a personal area network device having a unique identifier, the security code based at least in part upon the unique identifier.

6. The information handling system of claim 1 wherein the security module comprises access control to the information handling system operating system.

7. The information handling system of claim 1 wherein the security module comprises access control to an application executing over an operating system of the information handling system.

8. The information handling system of claim 2 further comprising a biometric identification system integrated in the totem and operable to communicate with the security module, the security module applying biometric information to determine the security code.

9. A method for securing an information handling system, the method comprising:

presenting a user interface at a display of the information handling system, the user interface having symbols disposed around a perimeter, the symbols having an order randomly selected from plural orders;

moving the user interface relative to the symbols to select plural of the symbols as a security code input to the information handling system; and

authorizing access to the information handling system if the security code matches a security code of the information handling system.

10. The method of claim 9 further comprising:

disposing a totem at the user interface; and

moving the user interface relative to the symbols by rotating the totem.

11. The method of claim 10 further comprising:

wirelessly communicating a unique identifier from the totem to the information handling system; and

selecting the security code based at least in part upon the unique identifier.

12. The method of claim 10 wherein the user interface presents a combination lock visual image and the symbols comprise numbers.

13. The method of claim 12 wherein the symbol plural orders comprises the numbers presented in numerical order with a randomly-selected number in a top position.

14. The method of claim 9 further comprising a first security code associated with authorization of access to an operating system of the information handling system and a second security code associated with authorization of access to an application running over the operating system.

15. An information handling system security system comprising:

a display operable to present visual images, the display having a touchscreen operable to detect touches;

a controller interfaced with the display touchscreen and operable to interpret touches as inputs; and

a non-transitory memory storing a security module having instructions that when executed on the controller generate a user interface presented at the display and having a perimeter, the perimeter having symbols disposed in a randomly selected of plural orders, the user interface accepting a security code input by movement of the user interface and the symbols relative to each other.

16. The information handling system security system of claim 15 wherein the user interface presents as a combination lock.

17. The information handling system security system of claim 15 wherein:

the security module automatically presents the user interface in response to placement of a totem on the display; and

rotation of the totem relative to the symbols provides the security code input.

18. The information handling system security system of claim 17 wherein a security code input value is selected based upon the relative position of the totem and perimeter at detection of rotation of the totem in an opposite direction.

19. The information handling system security system of claim 17 wherein the totem wirelessly transmits a unique identifier to the security module to authorize presentation of the user interface.

20. The information handling system security system of claim 19 wherein the security module sets the security code based at least in part upon the unique identifier.
