Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for encrypting system level data structures are described. A storage system may include a storage drive and at least one controller for the storage drive. In some embodiments, the at least one controller may be configured to identify user data assigned to be stored on the storage drive, encrypt the user data, identify a system data structure generated in relation to the user data, and encrypt the system data structure. In some cases, the data structure may include at least one of metadata, system data, and data encapsulation relative to the user data. In some embodiments, the user data and the data structure may be encrypted with one or more encryption keys programmed on the storage drive.
