1) Let W be a database or subset thereof, existing on a single computer or cross-supported with multiple, interconnected computers that may or may not be geographically dispersed;
- where W is composed of, among other information, records for various parties such as individuals, businesses, institutions of all kind, or government agencies of any kind (“ENTITIES”);
- and said records contain financial, medical, asset, transactional or any other type of information for a party or parties (“PARTY” or “PARTIES”) represented on W;
- that each such record is referred to as a fictitious-identity record (“FID-record”) since at any given moment in time it is unknown if the record is exclusive to an originally authorized PARTY or an unauthorized person (“TRANSGRESSOR”);
- that each such FID record has one or more fictitious-identity ciphers (“FID-ciphers”) associated with it for identifying the PARTY who may legally access, update or otherwise affect the status or contents of said FID-record;
- wherein such a FID-cipher or FID-ciphers are issued—whether sequentially, randomly, or alphanumerically—by a private ENTITTY or legally issued by a government ENTITY for purpose of identifying and/or verifying PARTY who may access a particular piece of FID-record information, anywhere within W, in any way;
- then INVENTION is a method that comprises acrostically encrypting W to detect or deter unauthorized access to W by embedding encoded ciphers (“TRANSGRESSION-ciphers”), selectively issued as described in the art.
