  • Publication number: 20140047240
    Abstract: A controller is provided with a controller key and a first controller identification information unique to the controller. The controller generates a controller unique key unique to a respective controller based on the controller key and the first controller identification information, and a second controller identification information based on the first controller identification information. A decryptor decrypts the encrypted medium device key using the controller unique key to obtain a medium device key. An authentication/key exchange process unit performs authentication/key exchange process with the host device through an interface unit using the medium device key, the medium device key certificate and the second controller identification information to establish a secure channel.

  • Patent number: 8634557
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a device includes a storage and an authenticator. The storage includes a first area, a second area and a third area. The first area stores NKey and SecretID, the second area stores index information. E-SecretID is generated by SecretID. The third area stores FKB including information generated by FKey. The authenticator authenticates the external device. HKey is generated by an AES encryption calculating using NKey and HC. A SKey is generated by an AES encryption process using HKey and RN. A one-way conversion calculating is performed. E-SecretID, FKB and Oneway-ID are output to the external device. The index information is read from the second area.
