Abstract
Various implementations described herein relate to systems and methods for protecting data stored on a Solid State Drive (SSD) against malware, including determining, by a controller of the SSD, a typical traffic profile, receiving, by the controller, commands from a host, and determining, by the controller, that the commands are likely caused by malware by determining that the commands deviate from the typical traffic profile. In response to determining the commands are likely caused by the malware, the controller performs a malware response action.
