How does TrustedFlash security technology work?
TrustedFlash security technology implements a cryptographic engine and a tamper-resistant core that are installed on the flash card, USB drive, SIM card or embedded flash drive (EFD). The engine encrypts files that are protected by TrustedFlash security technology, while the keys to unlock these files are placed in the core. This encryption is, in effect, an envelope surrounding the individual file. The file itself can be in any format, independent of TrustedFlash security technology. The TrustedFlash security specification defines the additional application programming interface (API) for the secured commands.
