A method for data security reading includes steps of: receiving a hardware instruction; analyzing said hardware instruction; if said hardware instruction is a reading instruction, obtaining the source address in the reading instruction; searching a mapping bitmap and modifying the reading address in the reading instruction according to the data of the mapping bitmap, wherein the mapping bitmap is used to indicate whether the data stored in a local storage address is dumped to said security storage device; transmitting the modified reading instruction to a hardware layer. An apparatus for data security reading includes a receiving unit, an instruction analyzing unit, an instruction modifying unit and a transmitting unit. The Trojan horse or malicious tools cannot store or transmit the acquired information even if the secret information has been obtained, so that the data always exists in controllable security range.
