Abstract:
A storage device can include processing and cryptographic capability enabling the device to function as a hardware security module (HSM). This includes the ability to encrypt and decrypt data using a cryptographic key, as well as to perform processing using such a key, independent of whether that processing involves data stored on the device. An internal key can be provided to the drive, whether provided before customer software access or received wrapped in another key, etc. That key enables the device to perform secure processing on behalf of a user or entity, where that key is not exposed to other components in the network or environment. A key may have specified tasks that can be performed using that key, and can be discarded after use. In some embodiments, firmware is provided that can cause a storage device to function as an HSM and/or processing device with cryptographic capability.

Claim (Index 1):
A storage device, comprising:\n at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for storing data, the at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including primarily flash memory; hardware capable of performing cryptographic processing; at least one processor; and memory including instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the storage device to:\n receive, at the storage device, a request associated with data encrypted under an internal key; \n determine, using the cryptographic hardware, the internal key from a plurality of internal keys stored by the storage device, each internal key of the plurality of internal keys being unexportable from the storage device; \n decrypt, in the storage device, at least a portion of the data using the internal key; \n perform at least one operation, associated with the request, on the portion of the data; and \n cause a result of the at least one operation to be transmitted to a destination associated with the request.
