Abstract: A flash memory storage system is provided. The flash memory storage system includes a controller having a rewritable non-volatile memory and a flash memory chip. The rewritable non-volatile memory stores a data token and the flash memory chip stores a security data and a message digest. When the security data in the flash memory chip is updated, the controller updates the data token and generates an eigenvalue, and updates the message digest according to the updated data token and the updated eigenvalue by using a one-way hash function, respectively. When the security data in the flash memory chip is processed by the controller, the controller determinates whether the security data is falsified according to the data token, the eigenvalue and the message digest. In such a way, the security data stored in the flash memory storage system can be effectively protected.

Abstract: A flash memory storage system including a controller and a flash memory chip is provided, wherein the controller is disposed with a rewritable non-volatile memory. When the controller writes a security data into the flash memory chip, the controller randomly generates a data token and generates a message digest according to the security data and the data token by using a one-way hash function, wherein the data token and the message digest are respectively stored in the rewritable non-volatile memory and the flash memory chip. Subsequently, when the controller reads the security data from the flash memory chip, the controller determinates whether the security data is falsified according to the data token and the message digest respectively stored in the rewritable non-volatile memory and the flash memory chip. Thereby, the security data in the flash memory chip can be effectively protected.

Abstract: A storage system including a storage unit, a connector, and a controller is provided. A personal identification number (PIN) message digest and a cipher text are stored in the storage unit. When the storage system is connected to a host system through the connector, the controller requests a password from the host system and generates a message digest through a one-way hash function according to the password. After that, the controller determinates whether the message digest matches the PIN message digest. If the message digest matches the PIN message digest, the controller decrypts the cipher text in the storage unit through a first encryption/decryption function according to the password to obtain an encryption/decryption key. Eventually, the controller encrypts and decrypts user data through a second encryption/decryption function according to the encryption/decryption key. Thereby, the user data stored in the storage system can be effectively protected.

Abstract: A storage apparatus having a non-volatile memory and a controller is provided, wherein the non-volatile memory includes a root directory area and a data area, and a password file is stored in the root directory area. The controller identifies a user by using a password in the password file, and the user can access the data area through an encryption/decryption unit of the controller only if the user passes the identification. By using the secured storage apparatus, the risk of the password and encrypted data being cracked is reduced. Accordingly, the protection over the data stored in the storage apparatus is enhanced.
