PHYSICALLY SECURE COMPUTING SYSTEM AND DEVICE, AND PHYSICALLY SECURE CONTAINER THEREFOR
First Claim
1. A secured computing system comprising:
- a computer including a computer processor, a computer input device and a computer monitor;
a base for receiving at least the computer processor, the computer input device and the computer monitor therein;
a removable and securable first cover cooperating with said base for substantially enclosing at least the computer processor, computer input device and computer monitor therebetween when said first cover is in a first position in said base;
said removable and securable first cover cooperating with said base for substantially enclosing the computer input device, said first cover having at least one opening through which at least one actuator of the computer input device is accessible when said first cover is in a second position in said base; and
a securable second cover cooperating with said base for preventing access to predetermined ones of input and output ports and/or devices of the computer processor when said second cover is in a secured position with respect to said base, wherein access to the predetermined ones of input and output ports and/or devices of the computer processor is available when said second cover is not in the secured position.

Abstract
A secured computing system and container therefor may comprise: a base for receiving a computing device; a securable first cover for substantially enclosing at least part of the computing device when the first cover is in a first position in the base; a securable second cover for preventing access to the computing device when the second cover is in a secured position, wherein access to the computing device is available when the second cover is not in the secured position. The computing device may be substantially enclosed when the first cover is in the first position in the base and the second cover is in the secured position; and one or more user features of the computing device may be accessible when the first cover is not in the first position in the base. The computing device may include a computer processor or computer peripheral.
