Abstract:
A method and system for securing access to a storage device including one or more locked logical sections. The method includes providing an interface device including a first port connected to a computing system and a second port connected to the storage device. Further, the method includes receiving a unique identifier from a wireless device, and deriving a key from the unique identifier. Based on the derived key, the method unlocks a logical section in the storage device. The method may further store access permission rights for the locked logical sections in the interface device and unlock the logical section based on the access permission rights. Moreover, the method may further authenticate the identity of a user of the wireless device for unlocking the storage device.
