Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data processing are described. Some database systems may implement data processing permits to manage data access. A database system may use encryption schemes to tie permits to data (e.g., cryptographically ensuring that the system follows data regulations). To support queries for a database implementing such encryption schemes, the database may implement a proxy. When the system receives a query, the database proxy may intercept and transform the query based on the encryption schema of the database. The database proxy may execute the transformed query at the database, receive encrypted query results in response, and decrypt the results for use by the querying application. Additionally, the system may access relevant data processing permits to support querying operations. For example, the system may use permits when transforming the query, executing the query in the database, preparing query results for the querying application, or any combination thereof.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data processing are described. Some systems may support data processing permits and cryptographic techniques tying user consent to data handling. By tying user consent to data handling, the systems may comply with data regulations on a technical level and efficiently update to handle changing data regulations and/or regulations across different jurisdictions. For example, the system may maintain a set of data processing permits indicating user consent for the system to use a user's data for particular data processes. The system may encrypt the user's data using a cryptographic key (e.g., a cryptographic nonce) and may encrypt the nonce using permit keys for any permits applicable to that data. In this way, to access a user's data for a data process, the system may first verify that a relevant permit indicates that the user complies with the requested process prior to decrypting the user's data.

The gatekeeper provides evidence of attestation both for the application specific code and the policy.
