Abstract:
A wireless encryption key integrated storage system is provided to prevent unauthorized access of data stored on the storage device without secure authentication between the storage device and a key device. In one embodiment, a data storage device comprises a magnetic disk; a head assembly having a read/write head which read and write data from/on the magnetic disk; a wireless transceiver configured to receive and transmit wireless signals from a key device, the wireless signals comprising information used to establish a secure authorization between the data storage device and the key device to access secured content in the magnetic disk; and a processor configured to encrypt/decrypt data transferred between the data storage device and the key device.
