1. A method comprising:
- displaying a plurality of selectable images on a display to a first user, each of the images having one or more lock locations;
receiving a first selection of a first image of the plurality of selectable images by the first user;
dynamically presenting a first set of symbols adjacent the first image;
receiving a first code, the first code formed by a first arrangement of one or more of the first set of symbols on the one or more lock locations on the first image, wherein at least one of the one or more lock locations on the first image is to receive multiple symbols of a same or different type; and

12. A method comprising:
-
presenting a plurality of selectable images to a user on a screen, the images respectively having one or more lock locations; receiving a selection of a first one of the plurality of selectable images by the user; displaying the first image with the one or more lock locations in a first position on the screen; displaying a first set of key symbols in a first arrangement adjacent the first image; receiving a code comprising an association of at least one of the key symbols and at least one of the one or more lock locations on the first image, wherein at least two key symbols are associated with a same one of the lock locations; authenticating a user based on (1) the selection of the first image from the plurality of selectable images and (2) the code; and generating a custody record based on the authenticated user. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. An apparatus comprising:
-
a user interface to display a login screen to a user; an input device to receive a command from the user; and a processor communicatively coupled to the user interface, the processor to; present a plurality of selectable images to the user via the user interface, the images having one or more lock locations; receive a selection of a first image of the plurality of selectable images by the first user; present a plurality of symbols to the user adjacent the first image via the user interface; request the user, using the input device, to enter a code comprising matching one or more of the symbols to one or more of the lock locations on the first image, wherein to enter the code the user is to select one of the symbols and then subsequently select a plurality of different lock locations where the same symbol is to be matched; authenticate the user based on (1) the selection of the first image from the plurality of selectable images and (2) the code, wherein at least one lock location is to be matched with more than one symbol; and generate a custody record based on the authenticated user. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. An apparatus comprising:
-
a user interface to display a login screen to a user; an input device to receive a command from the user; and a processor communicatively coupled to the user interface, the processor to cause the user interface to; present a plurality of lock locations on a representation of a three-dimensional object to the user; present a plurality of symbols to the user; present a request to the user to use the input device to enter a code comprising matching one or more of the symbols to one or more of the lock locations; display a first side of the three-dimensional object; display a first one of the symbols on a first one of the lock locations on the first side of the three-dimensional object in response to the user matching the first symbol to the first lock location; display the three-dimensional object as rotating in response to user input, wherein the first symbol is to be displayed on the first side of the three-dimensional object as the three-dimensional object is rotating; display a second side of the three-dimensional object different than the first side of the three-dimensional object; and display a second one of the symbols on a second one of the locks on the second side of the three-dimensional object in response to the user matching the second symbol to the second lock.
