    Abstract: Inventive aspects include a device including storage media. The device includes a PMU, and a controller communicatively coupled to the PMU. The PMU determines that an operating power of the device exceeds a threshold, and transmits a signal to the controller to trigger a power reduction operation. The controller throttles one or more operations until the operating power goes below the threshold. Some embodiments include a method for controlling performance of a storage device. The method includes measuring, by a PMU, a power consumption associated with a storage device. The method includes determining, by the PMU, whether the power consumption is greater than a threshold. In response, the method may include setting a performance throttle. The method may include determining, by the PMU, whether the power consumption is less than the threshold. In response, the method may include releasing the performance throttle.

    Abstract: Various aspects include a continuous authentication system for a storage system. The continuous authentication system includes a host having an encryption unit. The continuous authentication system includes a storage device having a decryption unit. The continuous authentication system includes a first physical connection between the host and the storage device. The first physical connection may be configured to transfer I/Os. The continuous authentication system may include a second physical connection between the host and the storage device. The encryption unit may be configured to encrypt a continuous authentication signal. The host may be configured to transmit the continuous authentication signal through the second physical connection. The storage device may be configured to receive the continuous authentication signal through the second physical connection. The decryption unit may be configured to decrypt the continuous authentication signal. When the second physical connection is tampered with, the storage device may stop processing the I/Os.

    Abstract: A method may include receiving, at a device, a copy command, wherein the copy command comprises a first indication of a first amount of source data and a second indication of a second amount of source data, determining, based at least in part on the first indication, an amount of destination space, and blocking at least a portion of the amount of destination space. The method may further include reading the first indication, and reading the second indication, wherein the amount of destination space may include at least a first portion of the first amount and at least a second portion of the second amount. The blocking may include blocking the at least the first portion of the first amount and the at least the second portion of the second amount. The method may further include storing the first indication to generate a stored first indication.
