Abstract: A key master service capable of operating on a service provider in a network enables is disclosed. The key master enables authorized parties to securely exchange client information without compromising client security. One feature of the key master service is the generation of a unique key for each client. All parties in an authorized universe access, exchange and modify client information by referencing the universal key, rather than using known client identifiers. Client information is further secured by advantageously applying an obfuscation function to the data. Obfuscated client information is stored together with the universal key as keyed client data at the client and/or server, where it may be directly accessed by the service provider or third parties. Because client information is stored and exchanged without the ability to discern either the client identity or the nature of the information, such information is secured against malicious third-party interception.
