  • Patent number: 11522686
    Abstract: Methods and systems for securing customer data in a multi-tenant database environment are described. A key identifier received from a security server may be stored by an application server. The key identifier may be associated with a private key that is accessible by the security server and not accessible by the application server. A request to derive a symmetric key may be transmitted from the application server to the security server, the request including a public key generated by the application server, a salt value, and the key identifier. The symmetric key may then be derived based on the transmitted public key and the private key using a key derivation function. The application server may then receive and store the symmetric key in an in-memory cache, and be used to securely encrypt data received by the application server from client devices.

  • Patent number: 11163910
    Abstract: Systems and methods for performing migration may include receiving, by a server computing system, a request to access a data element from a second data store, the data element having been migrated to the second data store from a first data store; accessing, by the server computing system, the data element from the second data store and its counterpart data element from the first data store; and based on the data element from the second data store being different from the counterpart data element from the first data store, responding, by the server computing system, to the request by providing the counterpart data element from the first data store instead of the data element from the second data store.

  • Patent number: 10749689
    Abstract: The disclosed technology for a hardware system to access a secure backend system uses non-volatile memory to hold encrypted secrets, volatile memory to hold decrypted secrets ready for use, a keys-for-all (K4A) server, and app servers running K4A clients. To access the backend system in production, each app server uses a decrypted secret and a certificate that identifies the app server and certifies its role and physical and logical location. At initialization of the app server, a K4A client is instantiated that launches and tracks processes, running on the app server, that are authorized to request decryption services. The K4A client responds to a decryption request from an authorized process, determined based on tracking of processes launched, by requesting decryption by a K4A server, using the certificate, and returns to the process, in volatile memory, a decrypted secret or a reference to the decrypted secret, decrypted by the K4A server.

  • Patent number: 10541811
    Abstract: Embodiments include an apparatus for securing customer data and include a processor, and one or more stored sequences of instructions which, when executed, cause the processor to store an encrypted first key fragment in a first storage area, store an encrypted second key fragment in a separate second storage area, wherein access to the first storage area and to the second storage area is mutually exclusive. The instructions further cause the processor to decrypt the encrypted first key fragment and the encrypted second key fragment using a key set and keys associated with a hardware security module based on receiving a request to derive a master key. The master key is derived using the decrypted first key fragment and the decrypted second key fragment and stored in an in-memory cache. The master key is used to encrypt or to decrypt encrypted customer data.
