Abstract
In this paper we discuss memories with their basic protection mechanisms and the results of the evaluation of a modern high-density flash memory by an Information Technology Security Evaluation Facility (ITSEF). In a second part, we address the notion of Authenticated Flash and present some authentication methodologies used for existing Flash devices.
