UPLOADING AND DOWNLOADING DATA BETWEEN SECURE DATA SYSTEMS AND EXTERNAL DATA SYSTEMS

摘要

Automated uploading and downloading of data between a potentially unsecure external data generator/user and a secure data management center/repository is provided. A data uploader module at an external data generator/user is configured to upload data to a secure data management center/repository. Data to be uploaded is transformed, as required, and the transformed data is then passed to a proxy service where the data uploader is validated for uploading data to the secure data management center/repository. At the proxy service, one or more specific locations to which the uploaded data is to be stored at the data management center/repository are determined, and the data is then passed to and is stored at the determined locations. At the data management center/repository, the uploaded data is processed as required. Data at the data management center/repository may be downloaded back to the external data generator/user through the proxy service as needed.
