Providing data security with a token device

摘要

A computer-implemented method for providing security to access and store data may include transferring first information for display from a token device having a memory to a first computing device at a first time, the token device connected to the first computing device and the first information describing public data stored on the token device. A request to retrieve a root directory of private data may be received, the request specifying a root directory name. In response to receiving the request to retrieve a root directory of private data, the root directory may be requested by establishing a wireless connection between the token device and a server computing device, transferring the root directory name to the server computing device, wherein the root directory name is used as a password to retrieve the root directory, and receiving the root directory from the server computing device by the token device.

主权项

1. A token device for providing security to access and store data, comprising:
a private data conceal engine configured to transfer first information for display from the token device having a memory to a first computing device at a first time, the token device connected to the first computing device and the first information describing public data stored on the token device; a radio configured to establish a wireless connection between the token device and a server computing device, wherein the token device receives a request to retrieve a root directory of private data, the request specifying a root directory name and in response to the receiving of the request, the token device requests the root directory from the server computing device and receives the root directory from the server computing device; and a cryptosystem configured to transfer the root directory name to the server computing device, wherein the root directory name is used as a password to retrieve the root directory from the server computing device.
