Latest Patents
Ward’s patent, “End-to-End Encryption and Hot Wallet Key Recovery Apparatuses, Processes and Systems,” describes a system for protecting wallet private keys during backup and recovery. The process encrypts a wallet private key with a user security PIN, then encrypts it again using a symmetric key derived from a server-associated public key and an application private key. The twice-encrypted key is sent to a private-key backup server.
The system also encrypts the user’s PIN using an asymmetric keypair, divides it into shards according to a defined fracture scheme, and sends the encrypted shards to designated backup devices. These steps are intended to support key recovery while distributing sensitive information across multiple components.
