Abstract: A computer-implemented method can include: a computer program file open request providing read access to text or binary plaintext file data residing on a data storage means; processing the plaintext file data in an input data buffer area following a computer program file data read operation to improve performance by creating a multiplicity of processing threads to perform concurrent, usually non-overlapping encryption processing operations; and an encryption program constructing a previously constructed complex of Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG) means to provide on-demand Pseudo Random Number (PRN) values.

Abstract: A storage system is described. The storage system may include a plurality of storage tiers, each including at least one storage device, each storage device including storage and a controller. Metadata storage may store metadata for an image stored in the plurality of storage tiers, which includes a location in the plurality of storage tiers where the image is stored. A receiver may receive a request to access the image from a host. Retrieval software, executed by a processor, may retrieve the image from the plurality of storage tiers using the location where the image is stored. A transmitter may transmit the image to the host.

Abstract: A data storage device includes: a housing integrating a control logic, a data protection logic, and a non-volatile storage; and a network interface connector integrated to the housing and is configured to be directly inserted into a network switch. The control logic is configured to store a vehicle data including a video stream in the non-volatile storage. The video stream is received from a video camera that is connected to the network switch. The data protection logic is configured to detect a vehicle event and change an operating mode of the data storage device to a read-only mode prohibiting the vehicle data stored in the non-volatile storage from being erased or tampered.

Abstract: A system and method for providing erasure code protection across multiple storage devices. A data switch in a storage system connects a plurality of storage devices to a remote host. Each storage device is also connected to a controller, e.g., a baseboard management controller. During normal operation, read and write commands from the remote host are sent to respective storage devices through the data switch. When a write command is executed, the storage device executing the command sends a copy of the data to the controller, which generates and stores erasure codes, e.g., on a storage device that is dedicated to the storage of erasure codes, and invisible to the remote host. When a device fails or is removed, the controller reconfigures the data switch to redirect all traffic addressed to the failed or absent storage device to the controller, and the controller responds to host commands in its stead.
