Abstract: A system and method for data storage, transfer, synchronization, and security using recursive encoding, wherein data is deconstructed into chunklets, and is processed through a series of reference code libraries that reduce the data to a sequence of reference codes, and where the output of each reference library is used as the input to the next.

Abstract: A system for storing and transmitting data in a highly compact format comprising reference codes to data chunklets contained in a library, wherein the data are retrieved after transmission or storage by re-constructing the data from the chunklets in the library using the reference codes. One version of the system contains proprietary libraries which act as a form of data security. Another version of the system contains a standardized version of the library encoded onto the firmware of a broad range of computing devices, allowing optimized storage and transmission of data between two such devices equipped with the system.

Abstract: A system and method for high-speed transfer of small data sets, that provides near-instantaneous bit-level lossless compression, that is ideal for communications environments that cannot tolerate even small amounts of data corruption, have very low latency tolerance, where data has a low entropy rate, and where every bit costs the user bandwidth, power, or time so that deflation is worthwhile. Where some loss of data can be tolerated, the system and method can be configured for use as lossy compression.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for displaying information on a visual display of a data storage device. The device may be an internal data storage device and may display information associated with various operation parameters or states of the data storage device. The data storage device may display, on the visual display, an indication that a data storage medium of the data storage device has been securely erased. The data storage medium may be securely erased by erasing an encryption key used to encrypt data stored on the data storage medium. The visual display may be electronic paper, mechanical, or chemical such that the information is displayed without power being applied to the data storage device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for displaying information on a visual display of a data storage device. The device may be an internal data storage device and may display information associated with various operation parameters and a security confidence metric or states of the data storage device. The data storage device may display, on the visual display, an indication of a security confidence metric of the data storage device indicative of whether the data storage device has been compromised. The data storage device may be compromised by having one or more sub-components replaced, altered, or misused. The visual display may be electronic paper, mechanical, or chemical such that the information is displayed without power being applied to the data storage device. The visual display may be removable from the data storage medium.
