Securing digital assets in a vault that interfaces with multiple different third-party wallets to store keys/mnemonics. The vault interface accepts input from multiple different party wallets to combine multiple encryptions and secure storage techniques. Numerous cryptographic mechanisms are employed to securely pull a mnemonic phrase from a third-party wallet and into an institution's vault. A customer's mnemonic phrase is securely transported from a personal wallet into a secured institution's encrypted vault using the power of HSM to encrypt and decrypt a customer's mnemonic phrase securely.

Systems and methods for protecting user data received by, stored on, and/or requested by third-party computing devices include a data entry computing system on a first network node. A data entry computing system can include a processing circuit that can identify user-entered data as sensitive user data, generate a content encryption key (CEK), generate encrypted user data by encrypting the sensitive user data with the CEK, tag the encrypted user data and the CEK with a tag readable by a database server on a network node different than the data entry computing system, the tag comprising information indicative of the encrypted user data, and transmit the encrypted user data to the database server, wherein the database server excludes a private key of a key manager on a network node different than the data entry computing system.

Systems and methods for third party data protection

Systems and methods for protecting user data received by, stored on, and/or requested by third-party computing devices include a data entry computing system on a first network node. The data entry computing system includes a processing circuit configured to: identify user-entered data as sensitive user data, generate a content encryption key (CEK), generate encrypted user data by encrypting the sensitive user data with the CEK, and tag the encrypted user data and the CEK with a tag readable by a database server on a network node different than the data entry computing system. The tag includes information indicative of the user data. The processing circuit is configured to transmit the encrypted user data to the database server, wherein the database server excludes a private key of a key manager on a network node different than the data entry computing system.

A system is comprised of a user and a group, wherein the group is comprised of a group leader and a group of M members where M is equal to or greater than one. The group leader generates a group public key and a group leader 'master' private key. The group leader creates a personalized watermarked or decryption key, also referred to as an individual private key, for each group member. The individual private key uniquely identifies each group member. The group leader distributes the individual private keys to each of the group members. Each group member receives from a user a message encrypted using the group public key. Each of the group members uses its individual private key to decrypt the encrypted message sent by the user to the group.

A system for automated cryptographic key management comprises a key control system, a key management agent system, and a key system application program interface. A method for automated cryptographic key management is also disclosed. The method comprises the automatic generation of cryptographic keys by the key control system and distribution of such keys by the key control system to the key management agent system.
