  • Patent number: 9984235
    Abstract: A method and system for transmitting trustworthy data. Changes to content of a raw data file (F0) of raw data are determined wherein F0 is a version zero of the data file, wherein the changes produce n changed versions F1, . . . , Fn of the data file, and wherein n is a positive integer of at least 2A trust index TXn associated with the changed version Fn of the data file is calculated, based on a cumulative number of changes between successive versions F0, F1, . . . , Fn of the data file. In response to a request received from a computing device for the data file Fn, the data file Fn and the trust index TXn are transmitted to the computing device.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9858420
    Abstract: A method and system for transmitting trustworthy data. A data file (F0) of raw data including content is received. Changes to the content of the data file F0 are tracked. The changes produce n changed versions of the data file (n?1). Changed version j of the data file is denoted as Fj for each positive integer j between 1 and n inclusive. Content that was changed in each version F1, . . . , Fn of the data file is determined. A trust index TXn associated with the changed version Fn of the data file is calculated, based on a cumulative number of changes between successive versions F0, F1, . . . , Fn of the data file. In response to a request received from a computing device for the data file Fn, the data file Fn and the tust index TXn are transmitted to the computing device.
