AUTOMATED EDGE DRIVEN COLLABORATIVE DATA PROTECTION POLICY MANAGEMENT IN LARGE SCALE EDGE ENVIRONMENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240275821 titled 'AUTOMATED EDGE DRIVEN COLLABORATIVE DATA PROTECTION POLICY MANAGEMENT IN LARGE SCALE EDGE ENVIRONMENTS
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a method for deploying a lightweight data protection component to an edge node in an edge computing environment, where a hybrid data protection policy is derived based on an operational attribute specific to the data at the edge node.
- The method involves deploying a lightweight data protection component to an edge node in an edge computing environment.
- A declaration file with an operational attribute is received from the edge node.
- A central data protection policy is chosen and used to derive a hybrid data protection policy that includes the operational attribute.
- The hybrid data protection policy is transmitted to the edge node for execution on the data residing there.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Deployment of a lightweight data protection component to edge nodes.
- Derivation of a hybrid data protection policy based on operational attributes.
- Transmission of the hybrid data protection policy to the edge node for execution.
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in various edge computing environments where data protection is crucial, such as IoT devices, smart cities, and industrial automation.
Problems Solved: The technology addresses the need for efficient data protection policies specific to edge nodes in edge computing environments.
Benefits:
