Abstract
Techniques for securing data stored on a data storage device are provided. The data storage device encrypts the data using a bulk encryption key and stores the bulk encryption key in non-volatile memory in an encrypted format. The data storage device generates a challenge and response pair, wraps a secret key with the response to generate a wrapped secret key, and stores the challenge and the wrapped secret key in the non-volatile memory. The data storage device authenticates a host by reading the challenge and the wrapped secret key from the non-volatile memory, erasing the challenge and the wrapped secret key from the non-volatile memory, sending the challenge to the host, receiving the response from the host, and unwrapping the wrapped secret key using the response from the host to regenerate the secret key.
