Abstract:
Provided is an electronic apparatus comprising a microphone, a communication interface, a memory, and at least one processor to control the electronic apparatus. The processor may execute at least one instruction stored in the memory to: based on a preset user voice of a user being received through the microphone, control the communication interface to request at least one first sound information from at least one home appliance, each of the at least one first sound information corresponding to the preset user voice received at each of the at least one home appliance, receive, through the communication interface, the at least one first sound information from the at least one home appliance, and identify a position of the user based on the preset user voice and the at least one first sound information.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a storage device which includes a nonvolatile memory device that stores booting data and user data, and a memory controller that includes a first core, a second core, and third cores. In an initialization operation, the first core performs first authentication on at least a first part of the booting data. In response to that the first authentication succeeds, the first core generates a device identifier, and the second core loads the first part of the booting data and performs first booting. The first core performs second authentication on at least a second part of the booting data. In response to that the second authentication succeeds, the first core generates a first certificate and a second certificate, and the second core loads the second part of the booting data and performs second booting.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, the method includes receiving, at a storage device, a request. The request includes a request message authentication code and write protect information. The write protect information includes at least one of start address information and length information. The start address information indicates a logical block address at which a memory area in a non-volatile memory of the storage device starts, and the length information indicates a length of the memory area. The method also includes generating, at the storage device, a message authentication code based on (1) at least one of the start address information and the length information, and (2) a key stored at the storage device; authenticating, at the storage device, the request based on the generated message authentication code and the request message authentication code; and processing, at the storage device, the request based on a result of the authenticating.
Abstract:
A storage device configured to communicate with a host, the storage device including: a memory including a protected region; and a controller configured to provide the host with a first response including a first device message authentication code and a first device message, receive a first write request from the host, the first write request including a first host message authentication code and a first host message, generate a first message verification code based on the first device message authentication code and the first host message, verify the first write request based on the first host message authentication code and the first message verification code, and write data included in the first write request to the protected region when the verification of the first write request succeeds.
Abstract:
A memory controller for controlling a non-volatile memory device includes a key management unit configured to control an access right to a secure key based on a biometric authentication message and a unique value, which are received from an external device; and a data processing unit configured to encrypt data received from a host and decrypt data stored in the non-volatile memory device based on the secure key.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an operating method of a storage device, which includes detecting virus/malware, performing an authentication operation with a host device when the virus/malware is detected, and entering a recovery mode when the authentication operation indicates that authentication is successful.
Abstract:
A method of operating a host controlling a storage medium includes receiving initial authentication information; setting a portion of a storage space of the storage medium as a protection area; transmitting the received initial authentication information and protection area information with respect to the protection area to the storage medium; and discarding the initial authentication information in the host.
Abstract:
An writing and reading method of a nonvolatile Storage, that includes a first partition and a second partition, and is configured to allow a read operation and a write operation with respect to the second partition only when an authentication is successful in a normal mode, may comprise: assigning a part of a storage space of the second partition to a temporary area by the nonvolatile storage according to a request of changing the normal mode to a secure temporary mode; and/or writing data to the temporary area by the nonvolatile storage. The nonvolatile storage may allow the read operation and with respect to the temporary area without the authentication.
Abstract:
A storage device includes a non-volatile memory device configured to store fast cell information obtained from a threshold voltage distribution formed through a one-shot program for memory cells; and a storage controller configured to read the fast cell information from the non-volatile memory device during booting or initialization to perform mapping a fast cell area based on a fast cell management policy, wherein the fast cell information is acquired through the one-shot program performed in a test stage or a mass production evaluation stage, and is stored in the non-volatile memory device before a firmware of the storage controller is executed.
Abstract:
A storage device according to an embodiment includes a memory device configured to apply a first program voltage and a first verification voltage to a first word line and output, based on a program state of each of a plurality of memory cells connected to the first word line, a speed information representing a speed characteristic of each of the plurality of memory cells; and a memory controller configured to determine at least one memory cell to be programmed into a predetermined program state; determine, among the at least one memory cell, at least one target memory cell having a first speed characteristic based on the speed information; and perform a state-shaping operation to convert a data corresponding to the predetermined program state for the at least one target memory cell into a value corresponding to a program state different from the predetermined program state.
