  • Method and apparatus for secure data file uploading
    Patent number: 6782418
    Abstract: Disclosed is a distributed computer application that utilizes the Internet and Web browsers as the interface to the distributed computer application server. Users who are providers of data utilize Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) enabled HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTP) to encrypt communications between their Web browser and the distributed computer application Web server (HTTPS). A Java servlet on the external HTTPS distributed computer application Web server handles the file upload from the Web browser and re-POSTs the data to a processing Java servlet on an internal HTTPS distributed computer application application server. The processing Java servlet on the internal HTTPS distributed computer application server is used to handle the file upload from the collection Java servlet on the external HTTPS distributed computer application Web server and saves the file locally in a database on the internal HTTPS distributed computer application application server.
