Abstract

An example apparatus includes a flash memory card that is removably and securely coupled to a host device (e.g., smartphone). When removed, the apparatus facilitates physical and logical air-gapping and secure, 'cold' storage of digital assets. In one example, a flash memory card stores computer-executable instructions to determine that a mobile device is authorized to communicate with the flash memory card when the flash memory card is inserted into a memory card slot of the mobile device. If communication is authorized, the instructions can further cause the memory card to establish communication with the mobile device and cause the mobile device to access a digital asset using a key stored on the memory card. The digital asset can be digitally managed in response to receiving user input at the mobile device.
