Abstract

See full text

Management of encrypted datasets residing on magnetic or optical media. Current data encryption products typically allow a primary user to enter a code such as a password or pass phrase prior to the encryption of a set of data. The password or phrase is used by the encryption/decryption software to generate or create the user's key when they wish to decrypt the dataset. The issue addressed by this invention occurs when the primary user is not available to enter the password or pass phrase. The present invention allows for the creation of two or more additional key sets, called custodial keys, which when used in unison or in predefined combinations of keys, will allow access to the encrypted dataset.
