“…Since the OS can be customized as per the need of the user, the loading time is much reduced. Integrating the concept of dynamic boot loader which automatically identifies the Live USB [4], with fingerprint will provide a user friendly environment to the user. Both data security and user friendly environment is offered to the user.…”

“…Regular USB drives can also be integrated with the fingerprint scanner to implement fingerprint security in the system. Considering this point, this work attempts to improvise the previously proposed work, which presents a dynamic boot loader for loading an OS [4,5] by providing the biometric authentication to secure the Live USB. The dynamic boot loader program simplifies the process to boot from external medium without changing the boot order settings.…”

In today’s world, people are constantly on move and portable systems are in demand. With technology advancement, people exploit different types of memory devices for a portable system. For any external boot medium, the BIOS boot order setting change is required. The dynamic boot loader successfully eliminated this dependency and allowed the user to directly boot from any portable USB. The usage of USB has grown exponentially in recent years and securing it has become a major concern. In this paper, the USB is devised as a highly secured portable boot medium with fingerprint authentication to ensure data security. It performs feature extraction by combining both Local Directional Pattern (LDP) and Histograms of Oriented Gradients (HOG) which improves the accuracy rate. The classification is performed by random forest classifier, such that the intended users alone are granted access to the private storage area of the USB drive.

“…Вони дають можливість виконувати перепрограмування через лінії reset, яка може бути підтягнута до 0, після чого завантажений у чіп bootloader починає свою роботу. Використання цього ефекту може бути застосовано для підміни bootloader нальоту [6,11]. Такий підхід дозволяє досягнути поставленої мети, а саме можливості перепрограмовувати окремі вузли у складі працюючої системи без їх вилучання.…”

The subject of study in this article is a method for remote diagnostics, reprogramming and reconfiguration of nodes of embedded and small-sized systems. The goal is to increase the reliability characteristics of systems built on the basis of microprocessor solutions. The task is: to consider the existing methods of communication of the MC set in the system with the possibility of specifying the requirements; consider and analyze the existing means of remote reprogramming of individual MCs as part of the target system; to consider methods of adding redundancy to the MC connection scheme for the possibility of reconfiguration; describe the elements of the method and sequence of development of systems that provide for the possibility of remote diagnostics, reprogramming and reconfiguration of their individual nodes. According to the tasks, the following results were obtained. The existing methods and equipment for communication of the MC set are analyzed. Possible technical solutions and theoretical foundations of intra-system reprogramming of system nodes based on MK are analyzed. The technical properties of one of the available industrial technologies, which contain crystals and development media, are presented, with the aim of finding properties that will allow expanding the capabilities of the created systems in terms of increasing reliability and energy efficiency. It is proposed to use a modified bootloader to organize the possibility of communication and reprogramming over one communication line. A set of steps is proposed for finding options for building a circuit with hardware redundancy. Conclusions. The idea of reprogramming and diagnostics of system nodes along one line using ready-made industrial components (COTS) based on microcontrollers and development tools is proposed, which makes it possible to make their development cheaper. The proposed elements of the method of remote diagnostics, reprogramming and reconfiguration of individual nodes of the built-in system based on MC. A practical example of the implementation of the concepts discussed in the article, including its reconfiguration, is presented; a diagram of the device before and after its reconfiguration is given. The practical significance of this research lies in the possibility of building and configuring a system from many separate nodes based on microcontrollers.

With technology advancement people have started using different type of memory devices for storing dataand keeping it secure has become concern in today’s world. Universal Serial Bus (USB) flash drives are leadingportable storage device for storage and easy transfer of data from one computer to another. The usage of USB hasgrown exponentially and without security the data on the disk is at risk. Nowadays USB manufacturers offer passwordprotection and fingerprint authentication to secure the USB data. In this paper, USB is devised as a highly securedportable boot medium with fingerprint authentication to secure the data.
