ENABLING RECOVERY OF CORRUPTED BACKUPS USING BACKUP COPIES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17957331 titled 'ENABLING RECOVERY OF CORRUPTED BACKUPS USING BACKUP COPIES
Simplified Explanation
Embodiments of the invention involve generating backups of assets, where multiple copies of a backup are stored in separate locations to enhance resilience to attacks and system failures. In case of corruption, the copies can be used for restoration, and even if all copies are corrupted, partial restoration of the non-corrupted portions is possible.
- Enhanced resilience to attacks and system failures
- Multiple copies of backups stored in separate locations
- Restoration using copies in case of corruption
- Partial restoration of non-corrupted portions if all copies are corrupted
Potential Applications
The technology could be applied in various industries where data security and backup integrity are crucial, such as finance, healthcare, and government sectors.
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the issue of data loss due to corruption or system failures by providing a more resilient backup system with multiple copies stored in separate locations.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include increased data security, reduced risk of data loss, and improved system reliability through the use of multiple backup copies.
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology could be commercially applied in industries that rely heavily on data integrity and security, such as cloud storage providers, data centers, and cybersecurity firms.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) systems in data storage to provide redundancy and fault tolerance.

This article does not provide information on the cost-effectiveness of the technology compared to other backup solutions.
What are the specific technical requirements for implementing this technology in different industries?
The article does not detail the specific technical requirements for implementing this technology in various industries.
Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments of the invention relate to generating backups of assets. More specifically, in one or more embodiments of the invention, multiple copies of a backup are stored in separate locations. The copies may then be used to perform a restoration when one of the copies is corrupted. If all copies are corrupted the invention allows for partial restoration of those portions of the copies that are not corrupted. By using copies, embodiments of the invention allow the backups to be more resilient to attacks and system failures.
