  • Securely storing data in a data storage system
    Patent number: 10826689
    Abstract: A data file is encrypted with a file-specific encryption key and sent to a remote data storage system. The file-specific encryption key is encrypted with a master key. The encrypted file-specific encryption key and the master key are both stored remotely from the encrypted file and they are stored remotely from one another.
    Type: Grant

  • Securely moving data across boundaries
    Patent number: 10261943
    Abstract: Data to be moved from a source system to a target system, for a set of tenants, is first identified. The data is enumerated by a first computing instance in the source system to obtain an enumeration list. Data is copied from the source system to the target system based on the enumeration list by a second computing instance. The data in the source and target systems is then enumerated by a third computing instance to determine whether any data is still to be moved and another enumeration list is generated. The data still to be moved is then moved based on the other enumeration list.
