An Introduction to: Security in Storage Systems
|
In most systems, there are one or more forms of data storage. Securing this data is complex and covers numerous aspects, from legal compliance and system authentication to data protection. As security is related to keeping communication and data secret from others, cryptography will be a main topic in this paper where symmetric and asymmetric cryptography are explained. Communicating with a large number of parties requires an efficient identification process. This paper explores how Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) addresses and solves this issue. Following this, the elements and devices needed in a NAND flash storage system to ensure the secure storage of the data are presented. These range from random number generators to hardware accelerators for encryption. Content
