Abstract

See full text

A method begins by a processing module obtaining at least an ordering threshold number of encoded data slices to produce obtained encoded data slices. The method continues with the processing module ordering the obtained encoded data slices based on a pseudo-random de-sequencing order to produce a plurality of sets of encoded data slices. The method continues with the processing module dispersed storage error decoding the plurality of sets of encoded data slices to produce a plurality of encrypted data segments. The method continues with the processing module decrypting the plurality of encrypted data segments to produce a plurality of data segments. The method continues with the processing module aggregating the plurality of data segments to produce a data stream.
