  • Managing device identity
    Patent number: 9442833
    Abstract: Enrolling a device identity is disclosed. A determination is made as to whether one or more areas of a storage device has a sufficient number of faults. If an insufficient number of faults is present, additional faults are generated. Verifying a device identity is also disclosed. A fingerprint based on the presence of one or more permanent faults in a storage device is received. The received fingerprint is compared with one or more stored fingerprints to determine an identity of the device.
