08. Study on the design of a code generation circuit for a secure server bus adapter and storage devices

Abstract

SAN is a high-speed storage network used for data transmission between servers participating in storage systems, as well as between storage systems. It is essential to encrypt data at the host bus adapter, across the entire SAN connection and across the storage devices. Encryption can help prevent accidental or intentional leaks where data access is acquired and along the way. Hardware security appliances are used to augment traditional hardware security modules in terms of controlling key usage and providing a secure environment for cryptographic functions. The paper proposes the design of a code generator circuit for secure server adapters and storage devices, supporting cryptographic capabilities for the trusted platform module which includes random number generation; asymmetric key generation; Asymmetric encryption/decryption.
