Abstract: Provided is a process of securing data in a distributed storage and processing application, the process including: obtaining a cluster of computing nodes, wherein: the cluster stores a plurality of ciphertexts; accessing a transformation key with a first computing node; transforming the ciphertext with the first computing node based on the transformation key into a transformed ciphertext configured to be decrypted with a temporary access key; decrypting the transformed ciphertext with the second computing node based on the temporary access key to obtain plaintext data.

Abstract: Provided is a process including: encrypting each of a plurality of data encryption keys with a first public cryptographic key to form encrypted data encryption keys; obtaining a second public cryptographic key; generating a transformation key based on the first public-private cryptographic key pair and the second public cryptographic key; and transforming the encrypted data encryption keys with proxy re-encryption based on the transformation key; and obtaining the second private cryptographic key and the transformed encrypted data encryption keys.

Abstract: Provided is a computer system and method that enables delegated access to encrypted information for distributed messaging and queuing frameworks, or in general, to publish/subscribe architectures. In said frameworks and architectures, data is published by data producers and organized in channels or queues, which consumer applications can subscribe to, and that are managed by one or multiple broker entities.

Abstract: Provided is a process of operating a zero-knowledge encrypted database, the process including: obtaining a request for data in a database stored by an untrusted computing system, wherein the database is stored in a graph that includes a plurality of connected nodes, each of the nodes including: an identifier, accessible to the untrusted computing system, that distinguishes the respective node from other nodes in the graph; and an encrypted collection of data stored in encrypted form, wherein: the untrusted computing system does not have access to an encryption key to decrypt the collections of data, the encrypted collections of data in at least some of the plurality of nodes each include a plurality of keys indicating subsets of records in the database accessible via other nodes in the graph and corresponding pointers to identifiers of the other nodes.
