Parameter based data access on a security information sharing platform

A method for parameter based data access on a security information sharing platform that enables sharing of security information among a plurality of members, the method comprising:

• making a first set of encrypted information available to a first member of a community of the security information sharing platform, wherein the first set of encrypted information shared by a second member of the community;
• receiving a request, from the first member, to access the first set of encrypted information, the request including an encrypted parameter and an identifier for an parameter masking key corresponding to the encrypted parameter;
• determining that the encrypted parameter matches a parameter for accessing a first set of encrypted information;
• and
• transmitting, to the first member, a data key component used to access the first set of encrypted information in response to determining that the encrypted parameter matches the parameter.

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium encoded with instructions for parameter based data access on a security information sharing platform that enables sharing of security information among a plurality of members, the instructions executable by a processor of a system to cause the system to:

• make a first set of encrypted information available to member of a community of the security information sharing platform, wherein the first set of encrypted information is shared by a second member of the community and is accessible by members of the community having a first parameter;
• receive a request, from the first member, to access the first set of encrypted information, the request including a data password incorporating a second parameter;
• determine that the first parameter matches the second parameter;
• and
• provide access to the first set of encrypted information to the first member upon a determination that the first parameter matches the second parameter.
