Abstract
Approaches to validating files on a memory device are described. A startup sequence for a host system having at least a hardware processor coupled with a memory device is initiated. The startup sequence includes at least reserving a memory queue for validation. The hardware processor of the host system accesses the memory device using a peer-to-peer communications protocol. A startup sequence is initiated for an integrity check agent including at least validating an out-of-band (OOB) operating system that functions independently of a host operating system running on the host system. The integrity check agent accesses the memory device using the reserved memory queue and the peer-to-peer communications protocol to check validity of one or more files stored on the memory device.
