ENCRYPTION KEY MANAGEMENT FOR INTERNATIONAL DATA RESIDENCY

摘要

A medium, method, and system are disclosed for providing encryption key management for international data residency. Organizations that use group-based communication systems define specific geopolitical areas in which their data may be stored and other geopolitical areas (which may be the same or different) in which encryption keys used to encrypt and decrypt that data should be stored. can be specified. Users of that organization can post messages or access previously posted messages on a group-based communication system from any geographic area, whereby the system automatically retrieves messages and encryption keys from the appropriate areas. Store and retrieve, allowing users transparent access to group-based communication systems while maintaining security and data residency requirements.
