Abstract
Systems and methods herein secure computer memory from potential hacks. In one embodiment, a system includes a computer memory, and a memory protection module communicatively coupled to the computer memory. The memory protection module is operable to assign a counter value to a write Input/Output (I/O) request, to encrypt data of the write I/O request based on the counter value, and to write the encrypted data to a location of the computer memory. The counter value comprises a version number of the write I/O request and, for example, the location of the computer memory to where the data of the write I/O request is being written in the computer memory. The memory protection module is further operable to compute the version number based on memory access patterns of an application writing to the computer memory.
