Abstract: The described implementations relate to secure and verifiable data handling. One implementation can receive a request to add information from a drop-off site to a user account. The request can include a location element and a security element. This implementation can also obtain encrypted units of the referenced data from the drop-off site based upon the location element. This implementation can associate the information with the user account and store the security element.

Abstract: The described implementations relate to secure and verifiable data handling. One implementation can receive a request to upload information, wherein the information includes a referencing element and at least one blob of referenced data. This implementation can also receive a chunk of an individual blob. The chunk can include multiple blocks. Individual blocks can be hashed. Upon receipt of an indication that all chunks have been uploaded, this implementation can create an overall hash of the information from the block hashes rather than from the information.
