    Abstract: A memory controller includes a key generator, an encryption and decryption circuit, and a processor. The key generator generates a first security key and a second security key based on a write request from a host. The encryption and decryption circuit encrypts write data corresponding to the write request based on the first security key to generate encrypted write data, and encrypts the first security key based on the second security key to generate a first encrypted security key. The processor controls nonvolatile memories such that the encrypted write data, the first encrypted security key, and the second security key are programmed in at least one of the nonvolatile memories, and controls the nonvolatile memories such that a dummy program operation is performed on a page of the nonvolatile memories in which the second security key is programmed instead of erasing the encrypted write data.

    Abstract: A memory device includes one or more non-volatile memories configured to store user data and at least one key related to the user data; a network-on-chip comprising a bus manager configured to manage access to the user data and the at least one key; and a debug port directly connected to a host and configured to receive a request from the host, wherein the bus manager is further configured to, based on the debug port being activated, determine whether to allow access of the host to the user data and the at least one key based on classification information.
