In a secure computing environment, a method, system and device are provided for loading stored encryption key data from a protected non-volatile memory of a portable device. A boot loader program is initiated after the portable device is powered on, encryption key data is loaded from the protected non-volatile memory of the portable device, and access to the protected non-volatile memory is disabled after a predetermined time after the portable device is powered on. In this way, the encryption key data is loaded from the protected non-volatile memory of a portable device before the boot operating system is loaded.
