Systems and methods to provide secure storage

Abstract

Systems and method to provide secure storage are disclosed. An example method includes establishing a secure tunnel between a storage device and an agent, provide a command from the agent to the storage device via the secure tunnel, access first data at the storage device in response to the command, and identify a modification to data stored on the storage device by comparing the first data to second data, wherein the comparison is done using the storage device.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A tangible computer readable storage medium comprising computer readable instructions which, when executed, cause a processor of a storage device to at least:
 responsive to a command from an agent to the storage device via a secure tunnel between the storage device and the agent, access first data at the storage device; and   identify a modification to data stored on the storage device by comparing the first data to second data on the storage device, the first data including at least one of trusted data and a hash of the trusted data, and the second data including at least one of untrusted data and a hash of the untrusted data.
