Abstract

Techniques for booting a host computer from a portable storage device with customized settings with secure measure are described herein. According to one embodiment, in response to detecting a portable storage device inserted into a first host computer, the portable storage device is authenticated using a private key stored within the portable storage device against a public key stored in a second host computer over a network. In response to a successful authentication, data representing a personal working environment associated with a user of the portable storage device is downloaded from the second host computer over the network. After reboot, the first host computer is configured using the obtained settings of the personal working environment, such that the user of the portable storage device can operate the second host computer in view of the personal working environment. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
