Abstract: Data backups are performed in multiple blockchain environments. Digital pictures, movies, computer files, apps, and any other electronic data may be automatically backed-up, or duplicated, to multiple blockchain networks. First, an electronic data is written to a first blockchain network. A second, different, blockchain network is automatically selected based on many factors and/or parameters. Then, the electronic data is written to the second blockchain network. Still more duplicate copies of the electronic data may be redundantly written to third, fourth, and more blockchain networks. Any of the blockchain networks may send a confirmation that confirms the duplicate copy was written. One or more cryptographic proofs may be generated to prove the duplicate copies were stored to the multiple blockchain networks.

Abstract: A federated-data-room server manages information about a collection of electronic documents residing elsewhere (under different organizational/customer control). The server can anchor documents to a blockchain, record usage history of each document, and provide access to the documents for authorized users. As a result, the federated-data-room server operates on customers' data, while leaving the data in control of the customers. At the same time, the federated-data-room server provides data access and enables traceability via blockchain recordation of document identifiers and document hash values.

Abstract: Some embodiments described herein relate to a computer implemented method that includes performing a first work step associated with a first activity and with a first data product and performing a second work step associated with a second activity and associated with a second data product. A first chain of trust between the first work step and the second work step can be defined by defining a second manifest document that is associated with the second data product and that references a first manifest document associated with the first data product. An immutable data structure representing a second chain of trust independent of the first chain of trust can be defined by submitting the first manifest document and the second manifest document to a distributed ledger for validation.

Abstract: A computer system processes a digital representation of an illiquid asset, to confirm accuracy of the digital representation and value of the asset, and generates an asset-information table indicating where the various sections of the digital representation are stored. The system also generates an asset-value token, financial-return tokens, and a data structure that includes a self-executing program. The program associates the asset-value token with the financial-return tokens, so that the illiquid asset becomes a collateral for a decentralized loan transaction implemented using blockchain technology. The use of blockchain technology for decentralized loan transactions enables immutable data traceability.

Abstract: Some embodiments described herein relate to a computer implemented method that includes receiving a token that includes a reference to a first encrypted archive recorded in a distributed ledger. The first encrypted archive can be decrypted using the token to retrieve a first manifest document, which can be associated with a first activity of the complex transaction. The first manifest document can identify a second encrypted archive. The second encrypted archive can be decrypted using the token to retrieve a second manifest document, which can be associated with a second activity of the complex transaction. The second manifest document can include a reference to a data product, which can be retrieved. A continuity of the complex transaction between the second activity and the first activity can be verified based on the data product.
