1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- assigning a plurality of duress codes to a number of users;
configuring different response policies for different ones of the duress codes; and
providing access to the response policies via a policy engine, the policy engine having an interface via which the response policies are retrieved as users enter ones of the duress codes into ones of a number of computer systems.

Abstract
In accord with a first computer-implemented method, 1) a plurality of duress codes are assigned to a number of users; 2) different response policies are configured for different ones of the duress codes; and 3) access to the response policies is provided via an interface of a policy engine. The response policies are retrieved, via the interface, as users enter ones of the duress codes into ones of a number of computer systems. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

17. Apparatus, comprising:
-
computer-readable media; and computer-readable program code, stored on the computer-readable media, including, code to display a user interface; code to receive a plurality of response policies via the user interface, each response policy providing a user-configurable association between at least one duress code and at least one duress response; and code to log ones of the response policies into a duress policy engine, from which the response policies are retrieved when users enter ones of the duress codes into ones of a number of computer systems. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)

20. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
-
receiving a given duress code via one of a number of computer systems; indexing. a store of user-configurable response policies for different ones of a plurality of duress codes, and retrieving a particular response policy that is associated with the given duress code; and executing actions that are initiated by a user that entered the given duress code into the one of the number of computer systems, as limited by the particular response policy.

21. Apparatus, comprising:
-
computer-readable media; and computer-readable program code, stored on the computer-readable media, including, code to receive duress codes via a number of computer systems; code to, upon receipt of a given one of the duress codes, i) index a store of user-configurable response policies for different ones of a plurality of duress codes, and ii) retrieve a particular response policy that is associated with the given duress code; and code to execute actions that are initiated by a user that entered the given duress code into the one of the number of computer systems, as limited by the particular response policy.
