Abstract

An approach is provided for protecting data stored by a non-volatile solid-state memory from an unauthorized access. In response to a trigger event indicating an increased probability of the unauthorized access, the memory is destroyed by directing through the memory an electric current exceeding a rated current of the memory, and testing an operability of the memory, where the destruction is completed when the test indicates lacking operability of the memory.
