SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING SECURE AND ANONYMOUS PERSONAL VAULTS

摘要

A method and system for providing a secure vault may include providing a vault enclosure that has one or more nests, with each nest including one or more personal vaults. The personal vaults can also be used as a secure and anonymous gun locker. Security information must be established before access is granted to the vault enclosure, a nest, and a personal vault. Separate access measures are required for access to the vault area, the nest, and the personal vaults. User anonymity can be maintained by only linking security information to a particular nest and personal vault, without requiring any personal identifying information from the user.
