  • Managing sensitive data in cloud computing environments
    Patent number: 9460307
    Abstract: The illustrative embodiments provide a method, computer program product, and apparatus for managing collectively sensitive data. Collectively sensitive data is divided into a first partition for reassembly data, a second partition of the collectively sensitive data, and a third partition of the collectively sensitive data. Each of the second partition and the third partition are collectively nonsensitive in isolation. The first partition is stored in a translation table in a secure database. The translation table is configured for use in assembling collectively sensitive data from the second partition and the third partition. The second partition of the collectively sensitive data is stored in a first database associated with a first cloud computing environment. The third partition of collectively sensitive data is stored in a second database associated with a second cloud computing environment.
