Abstract

This PSKL system is a method to apply secure protection locking and unlocking of a Device such as computer devices, computer software, digital music, digital video, information and physical objects, structures or containers using an absolute position determined by all terrestrial or outer space coordinate location systems. The PSKL system determines the numeric reference of the latitude, longitude and ellipsoid/ altitude position of a Device and encrypts, using cryptography, that numeric reference into a cipher key, software key or coded mechanical recognition system to create a high security code Secure Key. The PSKL system uses the unique identity of the cryptography code embedded within the Secure Key to encrypt/lock or decrypt/unlock computer software, information and locks on physical objects, structures or containers if the Device is in the correct latitude, longitude and ellipsoid/ altitude position. If the Device is stolen the PSKL system will provide information on the whereabouts of the stolen Device.
