  • Secure non-volatile memory device and method of protecting data therein
    Patent number: 7907447
    Abstract: The invention relates to a non-volatile memory device comprising: an input for providing external data (D1) to be stored on the non-volatile memory device; and a first non-volatile memory block (100) and a second non-volatile memory block (200), the first non-volatile memory block (100) and the second non-volatile memory block (200) being provided on a single die (10), wherein the first non-volatile memory block (100) and second non-volatile memory block (200) are of a different type such that the first non-volatile memory block (100) and the second non-volatile memory block (200) require incompatible external attack techniques in order to retrieve data there from, the external data (D1) being stored in a distributed way (D1?, D1?) into both the first non-volatile memory block (100) and the second non-volatile memory block (200). The invention further relates to method of protecting data in a non-volatile memory device.
