The present invention is a distributed and autonomous digital data security agent that secures stored data and the storage device itself, from remote manipulation. The present system is an “agent” in that it acts independently in the accomplishment of its objects and is distributed in that its functionality is resides on firmware resident at disparate hardware locations. The agent is autonomous in that it cannot be remotely compromised. The system includes server having a dedicated Private link with a Chip Administrator, and a Data Link between a first-Chip, a second: Chip of said security agent. The first-Chip is resident and operable to control Write/Read calls and data transfers between the server and the second: Chips of the data storage. The Chip Administrator, first-Chip and second-Chip in combination with their associated Firmwares provide said distributed and autonomous data security agent.
A computer server secured data storage system having a distributed and autonomous data security agent for use with a computer server in data communications with a data storage array consisting of a plurality of data storage devices, said secured data storage system comprising:
A Data Cable Device for use with a computer server and data storage array to a provide a computer server secured data storage system, the Data Cable Device comprising:
A distributed and autonomous data security agent for use with a network of computer servers, each server of which is in data communications with at least one data storage array consisting of a plurality of data storage devices, said secured data storage system comprising:
