A patent application (Publication Number: US20240031165A1) describes a signature verification method designed for a memory storage device. The method involves reading data, signature information, and verification details from the memory storage device, conducting verification operations based on this information, generating additional verification data, and performing corresponding actions on the data based on the verification results. The method also includes overlapping the timing of verification operations and data generation, as well as generating and storing signature information before reading the data from the memory storage device. Additionally, hash operations are performed on the data before reading it from the memory storage device, and the verification information is stored in a rewritable non-volatile memory module.

Furthermore, the patent application details a memory storage device equipped with a connection interface unit, a rewritable non-volatile memory module, and a memory control circuit unit. This device is capable of reading data, signature information, and verification details from the memory module, conducting verification operations, generating additional verification data, and performing corresponding actions on the data based on the verification results. The device also stores the data, signature information, and verification details in the memory module, with the signature information comprising a digital signature corresponding to the data, and the verification information being generated through hash operations on the data. The device is designed to verify the signature information when reading the data from the memory module, ensuring data integrity and security.
