Systems and methods for creating and synchronizing security metadata within synchronized-data networks

摘要

A computer-implemented method for creating and synchronizing security metadata for data objects within a synchronized-data network is disclosed. This method may comprise: 1) identifying a data object, 2) determining the trustworthiness of the data object, 3) generating security metadata for the data object that identifies the trustworthiness of the data object, and 4) synchronizing the security metadata within the synchronized-data network. The method may also comprise identifying a need to perform a security operation on the data object to determine the trustworthiness of the data object and then offloading or load balancing the security operation within the synchronized-data network. Corresponding systems and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
