| 20120066513 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTHENTICATING A NON-VOLATILE MEMORY DEVICE - A method and an apparatus for authenticating a non-volatile memory device are provided. The method includes sending, to the memory device, a request for an Enhanced Media Identification (EMID) for identifying the memory device, by an EMID decoder for authenticating the memory device; receiving the requested EMID changed by a preset calculation of the EMID with an optional value from the memory device; and restoring the EMID by decoding the received changed EMID. | 03-15-2012 |
| 20120066774 | NON-VOLATILE MEMORY FOR ANTI-CLONING AND AUTHENTICATION METHOD FOR THE SAME - A method and a non-volatile memory apparatus for cloning prevention is provided. The non-volatile memory apparatus includes an Enhanced Media Identification (EMID) area, which is located in a specific area of the non-volatile memory, and stores an EMID for identifying the non-volatile memory; and an EMID encoder for modifying the EMID by a preset operation in conjunction with an arbitrary value. | 03-15-2012 |
| 20120090034 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DOWNLOADING DRM MODULE - A Digital Rights Management (DRM) service system providing digital content to which DRM technology is applied, when one or more DRM content is provided to a client device, download information for a DRM module capable of installing a DRM agent corresponding to a DRM system applied to the DRM content is provided together, making it possible for the client device to download the DRM module based on the download information, install the DRM agent, and use the DRM content. | 04-12-2012 |
| 20120110639 | STORAGE DEVICE, AND AUTHENTICATION METHOD AND AUTHENTICATION DEVICE OF STORAGE DEVICE - An authentication method of a storage device includes requesting an EID (Encoded IDentifer) to the storage device by an authentication device for authenticating the storage device, receiving the EID by the authentication device, restoring original ID information by decoding the received EID, and verifying individual ID information corresponding to use of the storage device included in ID information by using ID authentication information received from the storage device, wherein the ID information includes multiple pieces of individual ID information corresponding to the use of the storage device. | 05-03-2012 |
| 20120254630 | METHOD, HOST, STORAGE, AND MACHINE-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM FOR PROTECTING CONTENT - Methods and apparatus are provided for protecting content of a storage. First authentication information regarding a first module is acquired. The first module is one of a plurality of modules included in the storage. The first module is authenticated based on first Unique Individual Information (UII) of the first module and the first authentication information. Second authentication information regarding a second module is acquired. The second module is another of the plurality of modules included in the storage. The second module is authenticated based on second UII of the second module and the second authentication information. Access to content stored in the storage is permitted when at least the first module and the second module are successfully authenticated. | 10-04-2012 |
| 20120284772 | DATA STORAGE DEVICE AUTHENTICATION APPARATUS AND DATA STORAGE DEVICE INCLUDING AUTHENTICATION APPARATUS CONNECTOR - An authentication apparatus includes a data storage unit for storing authentication apparatus identification information, an interface unit for connecting to a host device through a first interface, and an authentication processor that executes an authentication process using the authentication apparatus identification information stored in the data storage unit. The authentication processor executes the authentication process upon receipt of an authentication request signal from the host device through the interface unit, and outputs an authentication response signal including data indicative of a result of the authentication process to the host device via the interface unit. The authentication request signal is for requesting authentication of a data storage device connected to the host device through a second interface. | 11-08-2012 |
