Systems and methods for controlling access to content in a distributed computerized infrastructure for establishing a social network

摘要

A computer-implemented method for storing content, the stored content being accessible by a computerized system comprising at least one central processing unit, memory, storage system and a network interface unit, computerized system being accessible by a user, the method comprising: generating first cryptographic key; encrypting the content with the first cryptographic key; storing the encrypted content in a data storage system, the data storage system comprising at least one data storage medium; a data storage controller and a network interface module, the data storage system being a part of a cloud-based distributed storage system, the cloud based storage system being connected via a data network with computerized system accessible by the user; generating a second cryptographic key; and re-encrypting the content with the second cryptographic key and storing the re-encrypted content in data storage system, wherein the re-encryption of the content is performed within cloud-based distributed storage system.

1. A computer-implemented method for storing a content, the stored content being accessible by a computerized system comprising at least one central processing unit, a memory, a storage system and a network interface unit, the computerized system being accessible by a user, the method comprising:
a. Generating a first cryptographic key; b. Encrypting the content with the first cryptographic key; c. Storing the encrypted content in a data storage system, the data storage system comprising at least one data storage medium; a data storage controller and a network interface module, the data storage system being a part of a cloud-based distributed storage system, the cloud based storage system being connected via a data network with the computerized system accessible by the user; d. Generating a second cryptographic key; e. Re-encrypting the content with the second cryptographic key and storing the re-encrypted content in the data storage system, wherein the re-encryption of the content is performed within the cloud-based distributed storage system and wherein the second cryptographic key is generated and the re-encryption is performed periodically; and f. distributing, via the data network, the first cryptographic key between a first plurality of users and distributing the generated second cryptographic key between a second plurality of users, the first plurality of users being different from the second plurality of users.
