This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, CFDA 47.070, provides $271,745 to Colorado State University to develop new cost-effective techniques for instantly and permanently sanitizing data stored in flash memory devices. Key goals include: Investigating techniques that leverage the physical properties of flash memory cells to promptly and irreversibly remove deleted data, without increasing wear or latency. The proposed solutions will be tailored for commercial flash memory architectures and require minimal hardware changes. This aims to ensure deleted data is not recoverable throughout the product lifecycle, benefiting consumers, industry, and government. The project will also train three graduate students in hardware-oriented security and memory systems.
