Abstract
An apparatus includes a memory, a Memory Section Attribute Storage (MSAS) and a memory access circuit (MAC). The memory includes a plurality of memory sections. The MSAS includes one or more entries, wherein at least some of the entries specify, for respective sections of the memory, respective section security policies, respective section base addresses and respective section sizes. The MAC is configured to receive, from a host, a memory access request that specifies an address to be accessed in the memory, to identify a target memory section that corresponds to the address, responsively to the section base addresses and to the section sizes specified in the MSAS, to receive, from the MSAS, a security policy that corresponds to the target memory section, and to apply the security policy to the memory access request.
