Abstract: Systems and methods for actively securing data storage devices utilize the technique of storage virtualization. In embodiments, would-be cyberattackers are presented with many possible “ports” or “channels” by which to communicate over a network with a data storage device. Unknown to the attacker, at any given time, only one of these ports or channels is the “correct,” or “active,” port; all of the other ports are dummies that do not permit communication with the storage device. The active port is dynamically, randomly, and/or continually reconfigured, seriously impeding the ability of the attacker to access the data storage device through the active port.
