SYSTEMS AND METHIODS FOR PROTECTION OF DATA INTEGRITY OF UPDATABLE DATA AGAINST UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATION

摘要

The present invention discloses systems for protecting data integrity of updatable data against unauthorized modification. A storage system for protecting data integrity of updatable data, the system including: a storage memory having program code, wherein the program code is configured: to be executed on a processor operationally connected to a storage device; to store a data copy of the data in the storage device; to transform the data copy into at least one transformed copy of the data upon storing the data copy; to store at least one transformed copy in the storage device; to read the data copy and at least one transformed copy upon a request to read the data; to transform-compare the data copy and at least one transformed copy; and to designate the data integrity of the data as verified contingent upon the data copy and at least one transformed copy being identical.
