Cryptographically protecting data transferred between spatially distributed computing devices using an intermediary database

摘要

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a system and method for cryptographically protecting data transferred between spatially distributed computing devices. An intermediary database may be used to facilitate the protected data transfer and/or record the data transfers. A first computing device may transfer, to the intermediary database, encrypted data that may be securely transferred to other computing devices. A second computing device may generate a GUI used to view data available from the intermediary database. Once data is selected by the second device, the second device may transfer a key (or other encryption mechanism) to the first device. The first computing device may encrypt the data using the received key and transmit the encrypted data to the intermediary database. The intermediary database may transmit the encrypted data to the second computing device, and the second computing device may decrypt and use the data. Similar data transfers may be performed among numerous other computing devices connected to the intermediary database.
