Title:
SECURING DIGITAL DATA BY AUTOMATIC MECHANISM INCAPACITATING DATA STORAGE DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/027336
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Techniques are presented for physically incapacitating data storage functionality of a computer data storage device for preventing access of data stored on the device. A security breach can be detected of a device housing a component communicable with a computer and where digital data is storable on the component. A mechanism can be activated for physically disabling the component in the device, in response to the detecting of the security breach. The incapacitating of the component can be a result of the mechanism physically contacting the component, in response to the activation of the mechanism, and the incapacitating of the component renders digital data stored on the component unretrievable by a computer.
