A secure one-time programming undo system includes a component and a component configuration system. A one-time programming subsystem in the component configuration system provides the component with personality configuration information that configures the component to perform component operations, and performs a one-time programming operation that configures a component engine in the component to deny modification requests to modify the personality configuration information. A one-time programming undo subsystem in the component configuration system performs a one-time programming undo authentication operation, and transmits a one-time programming undo instruction that is associated with the one-time programming undo authentication operation to the component, with the one-time programming undo authentication operation configured to authenticate the one-time programming undo instruction to the component such that the component executes the one-time programming undo instruction that reconfigures the component engine in the component to allow modification requests to modify the personality configuration information.

Secure one-time programming undo system

Systems and methods are provided for implementing one-time programmable features for storage devices. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include: a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: initialize a one-time programmable (OTP) security storage device; and transmit a command to the OTP security storage device, where the OTP security device is configured to be set in security or non-security mode in response to the command, and where the OTP security storage device is configured to deny or ignore any subsequent command to set the OTP security storage device in a security mode or a non-security mode.
