Abstract:
A method for providing and maintaining secure storage of data includes cloaking the data by retrieving, from a database and using a first set of user-specific cloaking sequences and a first mapping, a first set of hidden sequences, and applying the data and the first set of hidden sequences as inputs to a cloaking algorithm. The cloaked data is stored in a persistent memory. The method further includes, during a later, second time period, re-cloaking the cloaked data by uncloaking the cloaked data using the first set of hidden sequences, retrieving, from the database and using the first set of user-specific cloaking sequences and a different, second mapping, a second set of one or more hidden sequences, and applying the uncloaked data and the second set of hidden sequences as inputs to the cloaking algorithm. The re-cloaked data is stored in the persistent memory.
