Abstract

All embodiment of the invention relate to a safe system and a safe module and specifically relate to a system, a device and a method for generating and applying an identification elements which are uniquely related to a storage device, storage device mapping and encrypted storage. The unique identification elements provide a statistically random source which can derive encryption keys and improve storage device mapping. The encryption keys are applied across all kinds of frameworks, and therefore the safety of data stored in the system can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to secure microcontroller systems and / or modules, and more particularly to systems and methods related to securing embedded memories and enabling self-secure storage elements within memory system architectures. Background technique [0002] The importance of data security within today's computing systems is well understood by those skilled in the art. Considerable research and development has been conducted across numerous markets in order to create security protocols and architectures that maintain the integrity of data stored within memory systems. While these efforts have resulted in significant improvements in security systems, there remains a significant risk that data stored within the security system may be compromised. [0003] The difficulty of designing and maintaining a secure computing system is associated with the daunting task of addressing all potential vulnerabilities of the system that could com...
