==MEMORY SYSTEMS AND DEVICES INCLUDING EXAMPLES OF GENERATING ACCESS CODES FOR MEMORY REGIONS USING AUTHENTICATION LOGIC - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18433095 titled 'MEMORY SYSTEMS AND DEVICES INCLUDING EXAMPLES OF GENERATING ACCESS CODES FOR MEMORY REGIONS USING AUTHENTICATION LOGIC

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes systems and methods for generating access codes for memory regions of a memory device using authentication logic, and for accessing the memory device using these access codes. 

* Memory controller and/or memory device generate access codes for memory regions
* Host computing device includes access codes in memory access requests
* Data read or written at the memory device can only be accessed with the correct access codes
* Access codes are updated periodically or based on a counter value

== Potential Applications ==
This technology could be applied in secure data storage devices, military communication systems, and financial institutions where data security is crucial.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology solves the problem of unauthorized access to specific memory regions of a memory device, providing enhanced security for sensitive data.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

Examples of systems and method described herein or generating, in a memory controller and/or memory device, access codes for memory regions of the memory device using authentication logic, and for accessing the memory device using the access codes. For example, a memory controller and/or a coupled memory device may generate access codes that a host computing device may include in a memory access request to access one or more memory regions of the memory device. Data read or written at the memory device may in some examples only be accessed in accordance with the access codes for memory regions of the memory device. Accordingly, the systems and methods described herein may provide security for specific memory regions of a memory device because the access code are updated periodically (e.g., based on obtained reset indication) or in accordance with an updated count value from a counter.
