  • DECENTRALIZED NODAL NETWORK FOR PROVIDING SECURITY OF FILES IN DISTRIBUTED FILESYSTEMS
    Publication number: 20200044829
    Abstract: A secure method of maintaining and accessing files (for example, multimedia files) is provided. Each file is divided into fragments or slices and each slice is encrypted and stored on a separate node. Each node is also required to maintain an instance of a public block-chain (or distributed ledger) which holds conventional block-chain transaction information for managing payment for access to the files. Preferably, each node is also paid in digital currency both as a conventional block-chain miner for maintaining the public block-chain and also for maintaining the slices.
    Type: Application
