Abstract
In one embodiment, a method is provided that may include one or more operations. One of these operations may include, in response, at least in part, to a request to store input data in storage, encrypting, based least in part upon one or more keys, the input data to generate output data to store in the storage. The one or more keys may be authorized by a remote authority. Alternatively or additionally, another of these operations may include, in response, at least in part, to a request to retrieve the input data from the storage, decrypting, based at least in part upon the at least one key, the output data. Many modifications, variations, and alternatives are possible without departing from this embodiment.
Claims31
A method comprising:
- in response, at least in part, to a request to store input data in storage, encrypting, based least in part upon at least one key, the input data to generate output data to store in the storage, the at least one key being authorized by a remote authority;
- and/or
- in response, at least in part, to a request to retrieve the input data from the storage, decrypting, based at least in part upon the at least one key, the output data.
An apparatus comprising:
- circuitry to:
- in response, at least in part, to a request to store input data in storage, encrypt, based least in part upon at least one key, the input data to generate output data to store in the storage, the at least one key being authorized by a remote authority;
- and/or
- in response, at least in part, to a request to retrieve the input data from the storage, decrypt, based at least in part upon the at least one key, the output data.
One or more storage media storing instructions that when executed by one or more machines result in the following:
- in response, at least in part, to a request to store input data in storage, encrypting, based least in part upon at least one key, the input data to generate output data to store in the storage, the at least one key being authorized by a remote authority;
- and/or
- in response, at least in part, to a request to retrieve the input data from the storage, decrypting, based at least in part upon the at least one key, the output data.
A system comprising:
- a circuit board comprising a circuit card slot and a circuit card that is capable of being inserted into the circuit card slot, the circuit card comprising circuitry to:
- in response, at least in part, to a request to store input data in storage, encrypt, based least in part upon at least one key, the input data to generate output data to store in the storage, the at least one key being authorized by a remote authority;
- and/or
- in response, at least in part, to a request to retrieve the input data from the storage, decrypt, based at least in part upon the at least one key, the output data.
