SECURITY TECHNIQUES FOR LOW POWER MODE OF MEMORY DEVICE

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for security techniques for low power state of memory device are described. A host device may initiate a low power state of a memory device. The host device may store a first value of a counter associated with the memory device operating in the low power state and transmit a command to the memory device to enter the low power state. The memory device may increment the counter based on receiving the command and increment the counter to a second value. The host device may validate the memory device based on a difference between the first value of the counter stored by the host device and the second value of the counter.
