Abstract
A memory controller, which manages a memory device, receives a memory command. The memory controller determines whether the memory command is encrypted. Upon determining that the memory command is encrypted, the memory controller performs a decryption function corresponding to the memory command. Conditioned on the performance of the decryption function resulting in a successful decryption of the memory command, the memory controller performs an operation on a memory location corresponding to a memory address included in the memory command.
