Read-Only Data Protection

X-PHYTrustROM Series

Read-Only Mode • Password-Controlled Write Access • microSD / SD / USB

X-PHY TrustROM is a removable-storage security family designed to preserve the authenticity of critical data by restricting modification after Read-Only Mode is activated.

Files on removable storage protected against modification
Unauthorized Modification

Problem

Critical files stored on writable removable media can be altered after they have been approved or distributed.

File Deletion

Problem

Important records can be removed from conventional writable storage, breaking the continuity of trusted information.

Data Overwrite

Problem

Existing files can be replaced by new data, making it difficult to preserve the original stored version.

Loss of Authenticity

Problem

Once protected information is changed, organizations may no longer have confidence that the stored file remains authentic.

Uncontrolled Write Access

Problem

Standard writable storage does not provide a password-controlled boundary for restoring write permissions to authorized users.

Key Advantages

Why X-PHY TrustROM?

Controlled Read-Only Protection

Read-Only Data Protection

Activate Read-Only Mode to make stored files readable while preventing ordinary modification, deletion and overwrite operations.

Password-Controlled Write Access

Write access can be restored only through the security tool using the correct password.

Automatic Protection Return

After the host is powered off or the device is reinserted, TrustROM automatically returns to Read-Only Mode.

3D pSLC Memory Cards

TrustROM SD and microSD use 3D pSLC, which provides better performance and endurance than 3D TLC according to the datasheets.

Flexible Form Factors

Deploy the same TrustROM concept across microSD, SD and USB storage formats for different host environments.

Security Architecture

Read-Only Access Control

TrustROM separates normal data reading from authorized write operations through a controlled password and software-tool workflow.

How It Works

Protect data through a controlled Read-Only workflow.

TrustROM uses a four-step operating process that keeps everyday reading simple while reserving write access for authorized users.

  1. 01

    Enable Read-Only Mode

    Start from Normal Mode, open the TrustROM software tool and set the password to activate Read-Only Mode.

  2. 02

    Eject & Reinsert

    Eject and reinsert the storage device after the password and Read-Only setting have been applied.

  3. 03

    Read Normally

    Access stored files for reading while Read-Only Mode prevents changes, deletion and overwrite.

  4. 04

    Authorize Write Access

    Use the security tool with the correct password on an authorized host when write access is required. After power-off or reinsertion, the device returns to Read-Only Mode.
