Toshiba (News - Alert): "TC358782XBG," an interface bridge IC that supports SeeQVault(TM), a next generation content security specification.

SeeQVault™ provides a solution for compliant equipment, and allows HD content to be viewed on multiple platforms. This is achieved with a secure ID assigned to each SeeQVault™-compliant flash memory, such as SD memory cards. "TC358782XBG" brings SeeQVault's™ features to portable storage devices, such as USB HDDs. This allows secure transfers of HD content, and enables users to play HD content on multiple SeeQVault™-compatible equipment.
