MagicGate is a copy-protection technology introduced by Sony in 1999 as part of the SDMI. It works by encrypting the content on the device and using MagicGate chips in both the storage device and reader to enforce control over how files are copied.

MagicGate encryption is used in the memory cards of the PlayStation 2 and, as of 2004, has been introduced into all of Sony's Memory Stick products. Some devices, such as Sony's Network Walkman, will only accept Memory Sticks which use MagicGate technology.
