    Abstract: A system and method for providing online storage and security. Digital assets are sent from client applications to server applications. The server implements an algorithm that optimizes the storage of digital assets. The server extracts the meta-data from digital assets and stores the meta-data in a relational database. The storage of digital assets will depend on analyzing the meta-data; factors such as file type, frequency of usage, and frequency of access are considered by the storage destination optimizing algorithm. The server also implements an algorithm that protects the digital assets from unauthorized network access. Upon detection of network intrusion by the security algorithm, the digital assets of the compromised users will be frozen, then either be destroyed or render unreadable by the unauthorized user. The security algorithm may then send an instance of the digitals assets to the compromised user to ensure that the digital assets remain accessible.
