Abstract
A two-stage storage security system comprising an address translator and a cryptographic engine for a mobile computing platform is provided. In response to a write operation, the address translator receives unencrypted data blocks, from an initiator, and associates the blocks with corresponding scrambled data storage addresses. The cryptographic engine encrypts the unencrypted data blocks to be stored on the platform storage component at the corresponding scrambled data storage addresses. The address translator applies a predetermined reversible translation function to reversibly remap addresses, and the cryptographic engine applies a predetermined cryptographic technique to encrypt and decrypt the data blocks. In a read operation, encrypted data blocks retrieved from the storage component are decrypted and restored to an original logical order. Decryption of storage component data is allowed when storage component is coupled to the corresponding platform.
