System for encrypted file storage optimization via differentiated key lengths

A method for improving efficiency in a cryptographic system, comprising:

• comparing a plurality of performance parameters of a file with a respective plurality of predetermined values;
• altering a length of a first key in response to one performance factor of said plurality of performance parameters of said tile not matching a respective one of predetermined value;
• and
• altering a length of a second key in response to said alteration of said first key, wherein said first key and said second key are utilized in a security procedure for said file.

A method for improving efficiency in a cryptographic system, comprising:

• comparing a plurality of performance parameters of a file with a respective range of plurality of predetermined values;
• altering a length of a first key in response to one performance factor of said plurality of performance parameters of said file falling outside a respective range of one predetermined value;
• and
• altering a length of a second key in response to said alteration of said first key, wherein said first key and said second key are utilized in a security procedure for said file.

A system for improving storage system efficiency, comprising:

• a file system configured to provide access to a plurality of files;
• a network monitoring module configured to monitor a plurality of performance factors on said file system;
• and
• a key management module, wherein said key management module is configured to compare said plurality of performance factors with a respective plurality of predetermined values, and is also configured to modify a first key of a file stored on said file system in response to one performance factor of said plurality of performance factors not equaling a respective one predetermined value, wherein said first key is utilized in a security procedure for said file on said file system.

A system for improving storage system efficiency, comprising:
