摘要: A system includes an environment-aware storage drive comprising one or more storage medium with a location-based service wherein the environment-aware storage drive generates a signal containing information about a location of the storage drive relative to a geo-fenced area and updates a ledger unit of an event happening to the storage drive based on the signal, wherein the event is related to the current environment of the storage drive. The ledger unit keeps track of a number of events and/or data received from the environment-aware storage drive. A policy unit determines an expandable set of security policies for the storage drive triggered by the event and/or data, wherein the security policies specify access restrictions to the environment-aware storage drive based on its current environment. The policy unit transmits and enforces the set of security policies on the environment-aware storage drive to prevent data from being theft from the storage drive.

摘要: Provided herein is a method that includes receiving a signal to erase content stored on a storage device. The method further includes erasing the content stored on the storage device in response to the signal to erase. The method also includes issuing a certificate of erasure, wherein the certificate is unique to the storage device.

摘要: Security of data storage devices and servers can be improved by the system and methods described herein. In some embodiments, a key management device of a server can be a locally (or virtually) located data storage device such as a HDD or SDD. The key management device may be part of a server system and can have a secure area protected by a cryptographic module (e.g. hardware integrated circuit). The secure area can store a certificate needed to authenticate another data storage device coupled to the server. A second server may authenticate the certificate and provide the access key to the another data storage device.

摘要: Security of computers, data storage devices, and servers can be improved with a multiple key access system. In some embodiments, a local key management device can be a locally (or virtually) located data storage device such as a HDD or SDD. The key management device may be part of a computer or server system and can have a first secure area protected by a cryptographic module (e.g. hardware integrated circuit). The first secure area can store a key to access a second secure area, which may function as a local key management server (LKMS) and store access information to authenticate another data storage device coupled to the computer. For example, the LKMS may store an access key to provide the computer with access to another data storage device.
