Abstract

A computer security device for protecting sensitive data stored in nonvolatile memory in a computer includes: an overvoltage generator comprising a high-voltage supply charging a capacitor through a resistor, wherein the capacitor is in electronic communication with the nonvolatile memory of the computer through a silicon-controlled rectifier; and a controller operable to receive a signal and in electronic communication with the overvoltage generator, wherein the controller is operable to produce a destruct signal. The generator is operable to apply an over-voltage condition to the nonvolatile memory of the computer through the silicon-controlled rectifier upon receiving the destruct signal from the controller.
