Abstract :
Block-level security provides the lowest level security for storage devices. In this paper, we propose a block-level security based on hierarchical logical volume of FC RAID. Using the hierarchical logical volume, a group of physical disks can be mapped to a uniform logical storage space and two encrypt/decrypt algorithms can be applied to different logic volumes.
