Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for a self-encrypting device (SED) incorporated into a host system. In one example, the host system includes a memory, a processor, a data channel in communication with the memory and the processor, and the SED. The SED comprises an authentication subsystem, a storage subsystem that stores encrypted data that is encrypted with an encryption key provided by the authentication subsystem, a radio frequency (RF) transceiver, and a data interface in electrical contact with the data channel. The data interface is locked from sending and receiving data until the SED is unlocked by the authentication subsystem with user-authentication information received via the RF transceiver.
