Protecting data stored in memory

Abstract

Methods and related systems are provided. A method is performed by a memory device including memory, where the memory device is coupled to a host device. A method includes receiving, at the memory device, a command from the host device to read a portion of the memory, determining, by the memory device, for the portion of the memory, a threshold number of reads and a delay associated with the threshold number of reads, and providing, by the memory device, based on the command, the host device with data stored in the portion of memory using a plurality of throttled read operations. Each throttled read operation of the plurality of throttled read operations includes no more than the threshold number of reads and is performed based on the delay.
