  • Publication number: 20210382865
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to system and methods for tracking and securing computer generated items using a novel data structure. The MIG data structure may include an item generation model, a revision history log, an item history log, model metadata, and administration information. The system may encrypt the MIG data structure to secure access and usage and perform a decryption process of the MIG data structure upon authenticating and authorizing a user device. The MIG data structure may automatically generate test items using the item generation model. The generated items may be stored and tracked in the item history log of the MIG data structure whereby modifications, revisions, or updates to the MIG data structure may be tracked in the revision history log of the MIG data structure. The MIG data structure may implement a Merkle tree to store the relationship between item generation models and generated items.
