Abstract

A storage token has a display and a keyboard, or other input device, that allows a user to view a request to access a memory location and enter a response to the request. The display allows presentation of details of the request, such as a pathname to a requested memory location, metadata describing a cryptographic key for use in a transaction confirmation, and/or transaction details which are awaiting verification by a credential stored on the token. The storage token may also include a cryptographic engine and a secure memory allowing signing data returned in response to the request.
