APPARATUS WITH A DATA SECURITY MECHANISM AND METHODS FOR OPERATING THE SAME

Abstract:

Methods, apparatuses, and systems related to a data storage are described. Data targeted for storage is communicated to a memory device along with a scramble key. The scramble key is used to encode the target data, and the encoded data is stored at the memory device. For read operations, the encoded data is provided instead of the target data, and the target data is recovered outside of the memory device according to the scrambled key.
