Abstract

A third party is configured to establish a virtual secure channel between a source SSD and a destination SSD via which the third party reads protected digital data from the source SSD and writes the protected digital data into the destination SSD after determining that each party satisfies eligibility prerequisites. An SSD is configured to operate as a source SSD, from which protected data can be copied to a destination SSD, and also as a destination SSD, to which protected data of a source SSD can be copied.
