  • Patent number: 11860822
    Abstract: A system and method for destroying data stored on an immutable distributed ledger utilizes technology from the following fields: encryption, digital signatures, data structures, distributed storage, distributed ledger technology, and smart contracts. Immutable distributed ledgers provide benefits for sensitive data, including availability, integrity, and data processing visibility. The system and method places sensitive data on an immutable distributed ledger and maintains these advantages of immutable distributed ledgers. The system and method also supports the efficient deletion of this sensitive data without compromising the integrity of the ledger.

  • Patent number: 11687486
    Abstract: A system and method for the secure management of digital contracts utilizes technology from the following fields: digital timestamping, encryption, distributed storage, and distributed payment systems. The existing state-of-the-art contract management systems require counter-parties to give a substantial level of trust to third parties to perform functions such as storage and verification. This system and method reduces the amount of trust that the counterparties need to give to a single third party. The system and method may be used for the secure construction and management of digital contract data and metadata.

  • Publication number: 20200111092
    Abstract: A system and method for processing and executing financial derivative contracts between one or more counterparties uses a distributed blockchain ledger and a smart contract and without the need for a trusted third party or intermediary. The system may have a plurality of distributed ledger nodes that each host the distributed ledger and the smart contract that are coupled to a management computer system that facilitates the processing and executing of the financial derivative using the distributed ledger and the smart contract.
