1. A data security gateway system of a mobile communication device, comprising: a user interface displayable on a touchscreen of the mobile communication device; a processor; and a storage device; the processor being configured to receive first touchscreen input from a user of the mobile communication device to select or program at least one of a quantity and a geometry of simulated rotating elements of the mechanical combination lock simulation, each simulated rotating element having one or more selectable positions spaced apart about a geometry of the rotating element, generate a user interface displayed in a first orientation and comprising the mechanical combination lock simulation based at least in part upon the at least one selected or programmed quantity and geometry of simulated rotating elements, receive second touchscreen input from the user, reorient the mechanical combination lock simulation as displayed on the touchscreen from the first orientation to a different, second orientation in response to the second touchscreen input such that the mechanical combination lock simulation is displayed on the touchscreen in the second orientation as skewed relative to a body of the mobile communication device, the user interface being displayable to and operable by the user in the first and second orientations by engaging the touchscreen to manipulate the user interface and enter a gateway combination comprising respective data of respective simulated rotating elements, and compare the entered gateway combination data with at least one value stored upon the storage device and determine whether access to grant access to further information based at least in part upon the comparison.
