Abstract
Systems and methods of transmitting data from one location to another location that can be used in a number of applications including, but not limited to, secure transmission of data from one location to another and secure data backup. In one embodiment, a data file is split into pieces and the pieces are placed randomly in a diverse mesh of online cloud storage providers. So all the data is not sitting in a single point of failure and with the entire file available for theft. Each piece of data is given a randomized numerical code that determines where the packet of data is stored. Also, the pieces of data can be encrypted.
Claims20
A method of secured data storage, comprising:
- allowing a user to generate a manually generated list of designated data segment end storage locations;
- a data segmenting device receiving the manually generated list of designated data segment end storage locations;
- the data segmenting device receiving data and segmenting the data into a plurality of data segments;
- the data segmenting device assigning the plurality of data segments to two or more of the plurality of designated data segment end storage locations;
- the data segmenting device transmitting the plurality of data segments over a network to the two or more of the plurality of designated data segment end storage locations;
- the two or more of the plurality of designated data segment end storage locations receiving the plurality of data segments;
- storing the plurality of data segments at the two or more of the plurality of designated data segment end storage locations;
- and
- the data segmenting device generating a report with information for retrieving all of the plurality of stored data segments from the two or more of tire plurality of designated data segment end storage locations and for reassembling all of the plurality of stored data segments into the data.
A method of seemed data transmission, comprising:
- allowing a user to generate a manually generated list of designated data segment storage locations;
- a data segmenting device receiving the manually generated list of designated data segment storage locations;
- the data segmenting device receiving data and segmenting the data into a plurality of data segments;
- the data segmenting device assigning the plurality of data segments to two or more of the plurality of designated data segment storage locations;
- the data segmenting device transmitting the plurality of data segments over a network to the two or more of the plurality of designated data segment storage locations;
- the two or more of the plurality of designated data segment storage locations receiving the plurality of data segments;
- storing the plurality of data segments at the two or more of the plurality of designated data, segment storage locations;
- and
- the data segmenting device generating a report with information for retrieving all of the plurality of stored data segments from the two or more of the plurality of designated data segment storage locations and for reassembling all of the plurality of stored data segments into the data.
A method of secured data retrieval, comprising:
- a device receiving a user restore request from a first location indicating data to be retrieved;
- the device requesting a report that, indicates information suitable for retrieving and reassembling a plurality of data segments to form the data;
- the device receiving the report;
- the device retrieving the plurality of data segments from two or more of a plurality of designated data segment storage locations over a network based on the report, wherein the plurality of designated data segment storage locations are determined by a manually generated list of designated data segment storage locations generated by a user and received by a data segmenting device, and the two or more of the plurality of designated data segment storage locations are assigned by the data, segmenting device for storing the plurality of data segments;
- the device reassembling the plurality of data segments into the data using the report;
- and
- the device providing the data to the first location.
