  • Publication number: 20230388105
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an encryption communication system configures a network with a plurality of nodes, and shares the encryption key between a first node that delivers the encryption key to a first user and a second node that delivers the encryption key to a second user. The first node forms n (n>1) systems of paths to the second node over the network, generates n pieces of first data, distributes the n pieces of first data to the n systems of paths and transmits the n pieces of first data to the second node, and generates the encryption key by superimposing the n pieces of first data. The second node receives the n pieces of first data from the first node via the n systems of paths, and generates the encryption key by superimposing the n pieces of first data.

  • Patent number: 10230997
    Abstract: A resolution converter converts input image data to N types (N is a plural number) of image data having resolutions different with each other. A secret sharing unit performs secret sharing schemes so that the plurality of pieces of image data are respectively divided into n pieces (n is an integer equal to or more than N+1 and the same value in all of image data) of distributed data and the distributed data is reconstructed to original image data using k pieces (k is an integer equal to or more than 2 and equal to or less than n and different value for each piece of image data) among n pieces. A data combination unit generates n pieces of combination data by combining distributed data selected one by one so as not to overlap with each of resolutions and stores each piece of the combination data in different storages.
