SYSTEM, METHOD, AND APPARATUS FOR ENCRYPTION KEY COGNITION INCORPORATING AUTONOMOUS SECURITY PROTECTION

摘要

A system, method, and apparatus for securing a cognitive encryption key data file stored in a storage medium or memory device. The encryption key file having stored instructions for an embedded autonomous executable program which is executed each time there is an attempt to access, control, or manipulate the encryption key file includes querying a user of the encryption key file, the user environment of the encryption key file, or both, for information required for analyzing a computational environment in relation to required security parameters for the cognitive encryption key file. The information in relation to the security parameters is received and analyzed. The computational environment of the user is determined and analyzed in relation to the required security parameters. Access to and/or use of the encryption key file is either permitted or denied based on the analysis of the user and computational environment.
