Abstract
A memory controller encrypts contents of a page frame based at least in part on a frame key associated with the page frame. The memory controller generates a first encrypted version of the frame key based at least in part on a first process key associated with a first process, wherein the first encrypted version of the frame key is stored in a first memory table associated with the first process. The memory controller generates a second encrypted version of the frame key based at least in part on a second process key associated with a second process, wherein the second encrypted version of the frame key is stored in a second memory table associated with the second process, the first process and the second process sharing access to the page frame using the first encrypted version of the frame key and the second encrypted version of the frame key, respectively.
