STORAGE SECURITY SYSTEM AND METHOD USING COMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

A storage security apparatus and method are provided. The storage security apparatus includes: a host interface unit transceiving data to/from a host; a storage storing the data received via the host interface unit; and an authentication unit receiving authentication information via a network, and authenticating an access to the storage based on the received authentication information. The storage security apparatus may authenticate an access to the data of the storage using the network. Also, when the storage is lost or stolen, whether another person accesses the storage may be verified by storing a record of an access to the storage in an authentication server during an authentication process of the storage.
