Abstract
Disclosed is a system and method for extending anti-malware protection to systems having multiple storage devices, such as RAID. In embodiments, a trusted connection may be established between a host and a controller of the multiple storage devices. The trusted connection may use various information encryption techniques to undermine attempts by malware to preserve malware-infected locations on the storage devices by redirecting anti-malware protection related operations by the host. Through an encrypted and trusted connection between the host and a controller of the multiple storage devices, anti-virus and/or anti-malware software (hereinafter, AVS) may transmit encrypted anti-malware protection related operations to the controller of the multiple storage devices, overcoming detection and/or diversion by the malware. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
