Abstract: Apparatuses and methods related to mitigating unauthorized memory access are described. Mitigating unauthorized memory access can include verifying whether an access command is authorized to access a protected region of a memory array. The authorization can be verified utilizing a key and a memory address corresponding to the access command. If an access command is authorized to access a protected region, then a row of the memory array corresponding to the access command can be activated. If an access command is not authorized to access the protected region, then a row of the memory array corresponding to the access command may not be activated.

Operating code for the microprocessor may be stored in the memory array, possibly along with other data (e.g., tracking or statistical data) used or generated by the on-die microprocessor. A wear leveling algorithm may result in some number of rows within the memory array not being used to store user data at any given time, and these rows may be used to store the operating code and possibly other data for the on-die microprocessor. The on-die microprocessor may boot and run based on the operating code stored in memory array.
