Systems, methods, and software can be used to encrypt and decrypt data. In some aspects, a first primary secret key based on a primary ephemeral key pair and a primary master public key is generated by a primary data service application on an electronic device. A first primary ciphertext is generated by encrypting a first portion of the data using the first primary secret key. A second primary secret key is generated based on the first primary secret key. The first primary secret key is deleted. The first primary ciphertext is sent from the primary data service application to a secondary data service application. A first encrypted text is received from the secondary data service application. The first encrypted text is generated by encrypting the first primary ciphertext.

Encrypting and decrypting data on an electronic device

Systems, methods, and software can be used to encrypt and decrypt data. In some aspects, a decryption request to decrypt the encrypted data is received from an application on an electronic device. A first secret key from a shared secret is generated. The shared secret is generated based on a master private key and an ephemeral public key associated with the encrypted data. A first encrypted secret key is generated using the first secret key and a context key. The context key is generated based on the master private key. A first portion of the encrypted data is decrypted using the first secret key. A second secret key is generated from the first secret key. The first secret key is deleted. At least a segment of the decrypted first portion of the encrypted data is sent to the application.
