CRU Data Security Group, LLC, Vancouver, WA, has been assigned a patent (11475152) developed by Hampel, Larry, Huntsville, AL, and Barber, Randal, Portland, OR, for “systems and methods for securing stored computer files from modification with control circuit.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “A computer system for securing computer files from modification may include a processor, a first data storage area operatively coupled to the processor, a non-volatile second data storage area, and a control circuit. The second data storage area may be physically separate from the first data storage area. The second data storage area may store files that are executable by the processor, including executable files of an operating system configured to save temporary files on the at least a first data storage area. The control circuit may operatively couple the second data storage area to the processor, and may be operable in a first mode configured to block commands received from the processor and configured to modify the second data storage area from being communicated to the second data storage area. In a second mode, all commands may be allowed to the first and second data storage areas.”
