Storing and transmitting sensitive data

A system for storing and transmitting sensitive data across a computer network to one or more destinations, comprising:

• a secondary device comprising a control circuitry and an associated secure data storage, wherein the secondary device is connected to a computing device, and wherein the computing device includes a native operating system with a central processor and communication interface to the computer network;
• wherein the secondary device:
• pairs with a trusted platform, wherein the trusted platform including a removable operating system to run on memory of the computing device;
• receives the input data, via the trusted platform, unilaterally from the computing device via an one-way communication link, the input data including the sensitive data and one or more of routing, scheduling, and prioritization information for the one or more destinations comprising other network-connected storage mediums or network-connected peripheral devices;
• stores the input data as source data on the secure data storage wherein after the input data is input into the secondary device, the input data is no longer retrievable from the secure data storage;
• and
• transfers, when the secondary device is connected to the computing device, the source data from the secure data storage to the one or more destinations through the communications interface of the computing device connected to the computer network, wherein the transfer bypasses the central processor and the native operating system when operating under normal function of the computing device and is in accordance with the one or more of routing, scheduling, and prioritization information.
