This paper investigates the physical layer security for a double-reconfigurable intelligent surface (DRIS) aided wireless-powered communication (WPC) system in the presence of an eavesdropper, where one RIS (termed as RIS-1) is deployed between power station (PS) and information user (U) while the other RIS (termed as RIS-2) is deployed between U and access point (AP). Moreover, an idle user acts as a cooperative jamming user (J) to emit the artificial noise to improve the transmission security of U. According to different types in energy harvesting (EH) and information transmission (IT)/noise transmission (NT) of U/J, we propose four DRIS enabled wireless-powered cooperative jamming transmission schemes based on jointly enhancing EH and IT of U (namely DRIS-1), jointly enhancing EH of U and NT of J (namely DRIS-2), jointly enhancing EH of J and IT of U (namely DRIS-3), and jointly enhancing EH and NT of J (namely DRIS-4), respectively. We analyze connection outage probability (COP), secrecy outage probability (SOP), and effective secrecy throughput (EST) of the proposed four schemes, respectively. The results show that DRIS-1 scheme has the highest diversity gain among the four schemes. Besides, the gain of the number of reflecting elements at RIS-1 has the same order as that at RIS-2 in DRIS-1 scheme and DRIS-4 scheme. In DRIS-2 scheme, the gains of the number of reflecting elements at RIS-1 and RIS-2 are two powers and one power, respectively, while the opposite is true in DRIS-3 scheme. In addition, DRIS-1 scheme achieves the best COP, while DRIS-4 scheme achieves the best SOP. DRIS-1 scheme, DRIS-3 scheme, and DRIS-4 scheme respectively achieve the best EST in the low, middle, and high region of transmission power or number of RIS elements.
