Abstract: A method and system for encrypting and reconstructing data files, including related metadata, is disclosed. The method involves separately encrypting data and metadata as chaining processes and integrating a plurality of encryption/encoding techniques together with strategic storage distribution techniques and parsing techniques which results in the integrated benefits of the collection of techniques. As disclosed, the content data is separated from its metadata, encryption keys may be embedded in the metadata, and in a content data encryption chaining process, the method chunks, encrypts, shards, and stores content data and separately shards and stores metadata, and stored in a flexible, distributed, and efficient manner, at least in part to assure improved resiliency In addition, the processes are preferably implemented locally, including at the site of the content data or a proxy server.
