WRITE PROTECTION MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

摘要

Write protection management systems are disclosed. In this regard, in one exemplary aspect, a security control system is provided to authorize and write a specified number of data blocks to a write-protected region in a storage device. In another exemplary aspect, a write control system is provided to keep track of data blocks written to the write-protected region. The write control system automatically re-enables write protection on the write-protected region after the specified number of data blocks has been written to the write-protected region. By automatically protecting the write-protected region after writing the specified number of data blocks, it is possible to prevent unauthorized attempts to write to the write-protected region, thus ensuring data security and integrity in the write-protected region.
