Abstract

An example apparatus can include a memory device and a controller coupled to the memory device configured to receive a command including command information to access a register from a host device. The controller can grant access to the register in response to the controller determining the command is valid and/or deny access to the register in response to the controller determining the command is invalid. The controller can determine the command is valid by calculating an answer using a seed from the command in a formula and verifying the calculated answer matches an answer from the command. The command, once verified as valid, can allow the host device to access configuration registers and/or data registers.
