SurDoc Unveils TruPrivacy Service

SurDoc
Corp.
announced that consumers can now get TruPrivacy – a development in
cloud storage security technology – that provides privacy protection
for users, while keeping cloud storage provider costs low.

With TruPrivacy,
consumers now can use cloud-based storage, knowing that their data
and files are finally safe from hackers or any other unauthorized
third-party, such as the government, industry associations, or even
employees within a cloud service provider.

"As the
cloud becomes the de facto storage center for personal as well as
business data, it is critical that consumers and IT professionals
understand that there are substantial risks of data leakage, exposure
and even theft that go along with cloud-based storage,"
said Alex Wang, CEO of SurDoc. "Data
protection and privacy is paramount, and users want to be assured
that their cloud storage service provider does not put sensitive data
at risk. With TruPrivacy, these concerns are now moot."

Today, most
cloud-based storage providers utilize a data storage technique called
deduplication. Although efficient, deduplication is fraught with
security and privacy holes that can expose customer files and their
contents. However, coupled with this technology, data deduplication
becomes secure whereby no one can access, view or share customer
data.

For utmost security
and privacy, most cloud storage providers encrypt customer data via
an encryption methodology that uses an encryption key to encrypt
customer data. Unfortunately, the mismanagement of these keys can
lead to data loss, exposure or theft.

TruPrivacy performs
encryption in a new way. Rather than
always use a key to encrypt a file, the technology includes a step to
use the file to encrypt the security key. As part of this, SurDoc
invented an algorithm to manage encryption keys, further ensuring
that data is kept private.

With this service
every file is encrypted with a unique encryption key, which is then
encrypted before being stored on a server. As part of the TruPrivacy
process, only the user who owns the file can calculate the encryption
key; the server has no knowledge of both the encryption key and the
unencrypted file. Because of this, only the user who owns the
particular file can access their file.

Wang concludes, "As
more personal and business information moves to the cloud, the risks
of loss increase exponentially. Now with TruPrivacy, cloud storage
providers can instill trust and confidence among their customers that
sensitive data remains what people expect – secure and private."
