Abstract
Various aspects include a continuous authentication system for a storage system. The continuous authentication system includes a host having an encryption unit. The continuous authentication system includes a storage device having a decryption unit. The continuous authentication system includes a first physical connection between the host and the storage device. The first physical connection may be configured to transfer I/Os. The continuous authentication system may include a second physical connection between the host and the storage device. The encryption unit may be configured to encrypt a continuous authentication signal. The host may be configured to transmit the continuous authentication signal through the second physical connection. The storage device may be configured to receive the continuous authentication signal through the second physical connection. The decryption unit may be configured to decrypt the continuous authentication signal. When the second physical connection is tampered with, the storage device may stop processing the I/Os.
