Description of the invention ⑴-The present invention relates to a method for protecting the data security of a computer system, using the BI 0S of the computer system to provide data security protection. In the past, the BIOS in the computer system did not have a backup function, and in the Operating System (OS), it did not provide a convenient backup function. Therefore, when the hard disk is damaged due to viruses, etc., the data stored in the hard disk will also be burned; at this time, the user is faced with a rather boring and complicated recovery task, and cannot guarantee that the original will be restored In addition, some precious information has disappeared. Therefore, even if today's CPU speed and hard disk capacity have been greatly improved, there seems to be little progress in data security protection. Therefore, 'If this system uses BI 0 S combined with a simple design and the hard disk is damaged', if the operating system cannot be used, and the damaged data can be easily restored, then for the user, Security is no different than an extra layer of protection. In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to propose a method for protecting data security of a computer system, which mainly includes: adding at least one sub-function and a restoration function in the BI0s setting of the computer system; and providing at least one The storage device is independent of the control of the operating system of the above-mentioned computer system, and can perform reading and writing control through the above-mentioned system B 10S. Among them, when the backup function is performed in the B10S setting, the data of the system hard disk is completely copied to the storage device * 'again' When the restore function is performed in the BI0S setting, it is copied to the storage The data on the device will be copied back to the above hard drive. In this way, as long as the user has performed the backup and sharing in the BIOS settings,

Description of the invention (2) If it can, once the data on the hard disk is damaged, the user only needs to re-cut the machine and perform the function of data restoration in the B10S settings, so it is easy to restore the original Hard disk information ° Brief description of the drawings ... In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, a preferred embodiment is given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to make a detailed explanation. It is as follows: Fig. 1 is a conceptual diagram showing the method of the present invention; Fig. 2 is a diagram showing another implementation situation of the storage device for backing up data in the present invention. Embodiment: Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to a conceptual diagram shown in FIG. 1. First of all, a backup function (backup program), a restore function (restore function), a timer backup function, and a skip function are added to the BI 0S setting of the above computer system. In addition, the BI0S must have a program (driver) capable of driving the hard disk and the storage device. The storage device may be a backup hard disk or a readable and writable optical disk. In the example, it is assumed that it is a backup hard disk. In addition, after the system is opened, the partitioned area system of the hard disk controlled by the operating system used by the computer system is not started. After the operating system is turned on, the storage device may be the aforementioned system (PKtitiOn), as Figure 2 shows' but it cannot be accessed. "

Description of the invention (3) When the system is booted into the BIOS settings, 'If the user performs the above backup function, the data on the system hard disk will be processed by the backup program and fully copied to the above backup. Divided on the hard disk (as shown in Figure 1 a-b concept). If the above-mentioned timing backup function is used, then the above B 1 os will automatically perform the function of backing up the hard disk every a certain time (for example, 1 week); if the user does not want to perform the backup, the user can choose the skip function Directly enter the normal boot process. —Unfortunately, when the hard disk of the system is damaged and the data of the hard disk is lost, the user starts the system first, and executes the restore function after entering the BI 0S settings. The above information will be copied back to the above hard disk (the concept shown in Figure 1 c-d). As described above, the data on the system hard disk is completely copied to the above backup data, and the bit-to-bit (bit_t0_bit) method can be used; and the data on the above backup hard disk is copied back to the above The system hard disk method is also a bit-to-bit method. In addition, 'a compression / decompression function can be added in the above BIOS settings; when the backup function is executed, the data of the system hard disk is compressed first' and then copied to the backup hard disk; when the above is performed, When the function is restored, you can first decompress the compressed data on the backup hard disk, and then copy it back to the above system hard disk. *, Til the above can be known-once the system hard disk is damaged, such as being damaged by a virus = read this method and copy the backup data to the backup hard disk, 〇 '', CD, or system hard disk On one of the separate partitions due to jobs

Description of the invention (4) The system cannot access it 'so it will not be damaged by the virus and can maintain the integrity of the data. At this point, the user only needs to reboot and execute the restore function in the B IOS settings, so that the system hard disk can be restored to the uplink backup state, and then necessary measures are taken, such as virus scanning ... Since this method is implemented in the BI 0S stage, that is, the operating system is destroyed, it can still be restored to the last time when the data was backed up, so that the status can be 'so the hard disk data is more secure.
