Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to data objects associated with private set intersection (PSI). Some examples disclosed herein may enable identifying a set of server elements and a set of data objects. Each data object of the set of data objects may be associated with at least one server element of the set of server elements. Some examples further enable sending the set of server elements and the set of data objects to a client computing device that has a set of client elements. A private set intersection (PSI) between the set of server elements and the set of client elements may be inaccessible by the client computing device, and a subset of the set of data objects that are associated with the PSI may be accessible by the client computing device.

Abstract: An example non-transitory computer-readable medium includes instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to receive a request for data. The instructions also cause the processor to determine a region containing the data based on the metadata. The instructions cause the processor to traverse a tree in the metadata to determine key generation information relating a decryption key for the region to a root key.

Abstract: Example embodiments relate to combining hashes of data blocks. The examples disclosed herein calculate a hash value for each data block in a sequence of data blocks.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to attestation. For example, in an implementation, a target device attestation request is transmitted to a target device, where the target device attestation request includes an identity-based encryption (IBE) ciphertext and a retrieval index. The ciphertext is a nonce encrypted using a trusted platform module (TPM) public key together with an IBE public key. The TPM public key is retrieved from a TPM of the target device, and the IBE public key is an expected value presumed to be stored at the TPM.

Abstract: A blockchain includes blocks that each store a hash value computed using a hash function from data of the block. Another hash value is computed for each block using a different hash function, and added to the block within the blockchain. New blocks subsequently added to the blockchain have hash values computed using just the different hash function.

Abstract: Detecting a workflow termination. An object with embedded access control is sent to a next participant in a workflow, wherein the embedded access control is provided and enforced by placing a subset of access keys for individual content-parts into a unique key-map entry for each participant, wherein the object is a Publicly Posted Composite Document. A workflow termination is detected after failure to receive a confirmation token from the next participant after a specified condition is not met.
