Security via dynamic data movement in a cloud-based environment

摘要

Methods, apparatuses, and embodiments related to improving security of data that is stored at a data store distributed over a computer network or cloud-based environment. For example, source data to be protected is partitioned into multiple data files. Additionally, each file may be obfuscated, such as by being encrypted, to created multiple obfuscated data files. Information as to how each obfuscated data file was obfuscated is stored in an associated trace file. The multiple obfuscated data files are moved around a computer network or cloud-based environment. The cloud-based environment may include servers and data storage containers located in one or more cloud services.
