Abstract
A method and system for binding and verifying between a storage device and hosts are provided. The method includes: sharing system parameters in advance with the hosts by the storage device, where the hosts are to be bound to the storage device; using a programmable read-only memory as the storage device, dividing the programmable read-only memory into m regions, completing the binding between each region and one corresponding host to be bound using the pre-shared system parameters, where m is a positive integer; verifying an identity of a bound host in accordance with the pre-shared system parameters through a zero-knowledge proof method by the storage device; if the verification is successful, starting the storage device and serving the bound host; if the verification is unsuccessful, terminating the starting of the storage device and refusing to serve the bound host.
