Abstract

A storage system includes a host device including a host processor and a secure element distinguished from the host processor, and a storage device that includes a first memory area accessed by the host processor, and a second memory area distinguished from the first memory area and accessed by the secure element. The host processor includes a first replay protected memory block (RPMB) key and a first RPMB counter for a first RPMB subsystem of the host processor. The secure element includes a second RPMB key and a second RPMB counter for a second RPMB subsystem of secure element. The first memory area includes a third RPMB key, a third RPMB counter and a first data space of the first RPMB sub-system. The second memory area includes a fourth RPMB key, a fourth RPMB counter and a second data space of the second RPMB sub-system.
