Abstract

The present invention provides method of utilizing hidden hard disc sector in protecting data under Windows system and belongs to the field of computer safety technology. The implementation includes the following steps: the step A of operation on hard disc HPA under Windows system including creating HPA in the hard disc, adding the back-up to hard disc HPA operation to Windows disc driving program, and creating interface for realizing hard disc HPA operation in Windows system; and the step B of saving the back-up data in HPA of hard disc for protection via the features of PHA via opening hard disc HPA, accessing hard disc HPA to protect back-up data, and shutting HPA. The method has the advantages of high safety, convenient operation, low cost, etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for protecting backup data in the technical field of computer security, in particular to a method for protecting backup data by using a hard disk HPA (hidden sector) which can be realized under Windows system. Background technique [0002] With the popularity of computers, the number of computer viruses is also increasing day by day, and the harm is also increasing; coupled with the increasing improvement of the Internet, surfing the Internet has become a part of the daily life of computer users, but the rampant hackers on the Internet have further threatened computer users. Data security and normal use. [0003] As far as the field of computer security technology is concerned: [0004] The means widely adopted by the public generally include computer security software such as antivirus software and firewalls. But so far, no theoretical model has shown that antivirus software can remove all unknown viruses or hacker ...
