SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF REMOTE DATA STORAGE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18397902 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF REMOTE DATA STORAGE

Simplified Explanation:

The patent application describes a system where data is transmitted from one device to another for isolated storage based on certain criteria being met. The data is sent using a peer-to-peer network, and the second device must be capable of separating the received data from other stored data. After transmission, the first device deletes the data but can retrieve it later if needed.

  • Key Features and Innovation:
   * Data transmission for isolated storage based on criteria being met
   * Use of peer-to-peer network for data transfer
   * Second device capable of separating received data
   * First device can delete and retrieve data as needed

Potential Applications: The technology could be used in secure data transfer between devices, backup and recovery systems, and decentralized storage solutions.

Problems Solved: The system addresses the need for secure and isolated storage of data, efficient data transfer methods, and reliable data retrieval processes.

Benefits: The technology provides enhanced data security, efficient data transfer, and flexible data management options for users.

Commercial Applications: Potential commercial applications include secure data backup services, decentralized storage platforms, and data transfer solutions for businesses and individuals.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the system ensure the security of the transmitted data? 2. What are the potential limitations of using a peer-to-peer network for data transfer?


Original Abstract Submitted

A first device can be configured to transmit data to a second device for isolated storage in accordance with a determination that one or more criteria are satisfied. The data can be transmitted using a peer-to-peer network. A criterion of the one or more criteria can be satisfied when the second device is capable of separating the received data from other data stored at the second device. After transmitting the data, the first device can delete the data. The first device can retrieve the data in accordance with a determination that the first device is associated with the data.
