  • Patent number: 11250143
    Abstract: Disclosed is an approach to implement a new layer of security within mobile devices using an encryption SDK, which implements a standalone component for applications to encrypt, decrypt, and view sensitive data on the device. A security layer is implemented on the device, wherein the security layer manages encryption for data retrieved onto the device from a cloud-based environment. Encrypted content is then generated at the security layer before storing the encrypted content by receiving the content object from the cloud-based environment and encrypting the content object with an encryption key that is password protected. The encrypted content is stored within an encrypted filesystem for presenting the content on the device.
    Type: Grant
