A method of data storage management. A server receives a data upload request from a remote client, the upload request including information identifying the data to be uploaded. The server determines that a duplicate of the data is stored at a data storage device. The server receives proof of possession information derived by the client from the data using additional information known to the server. On the basis of the received information, the server determines whether to allow the client or a user associated with the client to subsequently access the duplicate data stored at the data storage device.

Data storage management

According to an aspect of the invention, there is provided a method of protecting a user from a compromised web resource. The method may include monitoring a user's requests for trusted web resources to determine one or more web resources to be checked. The method may include querying a network database based on the determined one or more web resources to obtain historical data relating to whether any of the one or more web resources has been compromised at any time during a preceding time period. The method may include providing a predetermined response to protect the user if any of the one or more web resources has been compromised.

Data synchronisation

A method of controlling internet access on a client computer. The method includes identifying a DNS request generated on the client computer and which is addressed to a specific DNS root server, and sending an information request to a central server identifying said DNS root server. Then, at the central server, reputation information for said DNS root server is determined, and said reputation information is provided from the central server to the client computer. The reputation information is then used at the client computer to handle the DNS request or a response to that request.
