Abstract
Methods and systems for managing access to data stored in data storage systems are disclosed. To prevent malicious parties from gaining access to sensitive data stored in a data storage system, an access control system may be implemented. The access control system may include a registration process that assigns cryptographic key pairs to registered combinations of users and devices. The combinations may include an end device, a user of the end device, and an auxiliary device associated with the end device (e.g., a display device). When an end device requests sensitive data, the requesting device (e.g., end device), an associated user, and an associated display device may be authenticated using the key pairs generated during registration. The sensitive data may be encrypted pre-transit using device-specific encryption (e.g., using a public key of the display device) to protect sensitive data from malicious parties that may gain access to the end device.
