Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for partitioned cryptographic protection for a memory system are described. The method may include a host system generating a command to update a protection attribute of a first set of memory cells of the memory system, where the memory system includes multiple sets of memory cells, each set associated with a respective set of one or more first keys. The method may further include encrypting the command based on a second key corresponding to a first key within the respective set of one or more first keys, and transmitting, after encrypting the command, the command to the memory system to update the protection attribute of the first set of memory cells.
