Abstract

An electronic safe includes apparatus ID codes of various electronic devices as well as security keys associated with the apparatus ID codes. In order for an electronic device to be operated, it must first make connection with the electronic safe in order to verify the security key. Once the security key is received and verified, the electronic device is enabled to perform its function. However, if the security key is not received or not verified, the electronic device is disabled until such time as the security key is received and verified. This would effectively render stolen electronic devices unusable and worthless.
