A cloud-based system and method for securely storing data formed into cloud technology-specific data objects (hereinafter, 'buckets') by an S3 gateway, comprising obtaining a source data bucket from the S3 gateway; splitting the data bucket into at least three fragments; encrypting the fragments using an encryption key associated with the fragments and distributing the encrypted fragments among at least three cloud storage providers, and creating a pointer file containing information for retrieving the encrypted fragments. When a system user requests access to the data, the system ensures the request is legitimate, then uses the information stored in the pointer file to retrieve the stored encrypted bucket fragments from the plurality of clouds, decrypts the fragments and reconstructs the data buckets, and provides data access to the S3 gateway.

Systems and methods for breach-proof, resilient, compliant data in a multi-vendor cloud environment and automatically self heals in the event of a ransomware attack

A cloud-based system for securely storing data, the system having a processor which obtains a source data file; splits it into at least three fragments; and uses an encryption key associated with the fragments to encrypt the fragments and distributes the encrypted fragments among at least three cloud storage providers, creates a pointer file containing information for retrieving the encrypted fragments. When a system user requests access to the data, the system uses the information stored in the pointer file to retrieve the stored encrypted fragments from the plurality of clouds; decrypts the fragments and reconstructs the data, and provides data access to the system user.

A cloud-based system for providing data security, the system having a processor which creates a source data file; wherein the source data file is split into one or more fragments; an encryption key associated with the one or more fragments; and wherein the one or more fragments are encrypted by the encryption key; a plurality of cloud storage providers; wherein the one or more fragments are distributed among the plurality of cloud storage providers whereby no single cloud storage provider possesses all of the one or more fragments; a pointer file which is created on a local computer; wherein the pointer file stores the location of the one or more fragments; and wherein the pointer file is accessed; the encryption key authenticates the plurality of cloud storage providers; the one or more fragments are transferred from the plurality of cloud storage providers to the local computer; and wherein the one or more fragments are reassembled; and the source data file is deleted.

Systems and methods for digital currency or crypto currency storage in a multi-vendor cloud environment

A cloud based system for providing data security, the system having a processor which creates a source data file; wherein the source data file is split into at least one fragments; an encryption key associated with the at least one fragments; and wherein the at least one fragments is encrypted by the encryption key; a plurality of cloud storage providers; wherein the at least one fragments is distributed among the plurality of cloud storage providers whereby no single cloud storage provider possesses all of the at least one fragments; a pointer file which is created on a local computer; wherein the pointer file stores the location of the at least one fragments; and wherein the pointer file is accessed; the encryption key authenticates the plurality of cloud storage providers; the at least one fragments are transferred from the plurality of cloud storage providers to the local computer; and wherein the at least one fragments are reassembled; and the source data file is deleted.

Systems and methods for jurisdiction independent data storage in a multi-vendor cloud environment

The present invention relates to a cloud based system for providing data security. The system comprises a processor which receives a data file from a user. The data file is directed to a first file location and encrypted and segmented into a plurality of data blocks. The plurality of data blocks is then assigned with a unique identifier and redirected to a plurality of cloud based storage providers. The plurality of cloud based storage providers are located in a plurality of jurisdictions. Each of the plurality of data blocks is then assigned a second file location. The unique identifier and the file locations of each of the plurality of data blocks is updated in the system.

A system for applying a thin coat of a material on one side only of a substrate is disclosed together with a process for applying the thin coat. Coatings of less than one thousand angstroms are attainable on a single surface of the substrate by controlling the speed at which a meniscus of a mix containing a predetermined concentration of the coating material travels across the single surface being coated. Various pressure, temperature and humidity controls are implemented in the process and by the apparatus as needed to obtain the desired coating characteristics.

One-sided coating apparatus and method

A cryogenic cleaner for and a method of performing cleaning of a surface that must be substantially free of contaminants utilizing a multi-stage, multi-mode filtered carbon dioxide-containing cleaning medium. Multiple stages and multiple types of filtration/purification are provided to remove contaminants such as hydrocarbons from the medium. In accordance with preferred embodiments, a filtering/purification process is provided that desirably utilizes one or more of: condensation of the hydrocarbon; particulate filtration; chemical filtration using activated filters; and catalytic oxidation. In certain embodiments, a resiliently mounted nozzle is provided for spraying a cryogenic cleaning medium on the surface. The nozzle may be driven in an oscillatory manner at a predetermined amplitude and frequency so the nozzle spray is delivered in a manner to provide pulsing of the spray and to provide as 'snow plow' effect on contaminants as the spray delivers the cleaning medium against the surface. The surface is transported past the nozzle, and the cleaning occurs in an enclosed controlled environment.

Method for coating a substance on one side of a substrate using a single miniscus

A method and apparatus for automated interfacing with a processing tool in a manufacturing environment having a tilt mechanism and a rotation mechanism. In one embodiment, semiconductor wafers in a cassette are presented to a processing tool by tilting the cassette during movement towards the tool. The tilt mechanism provides a means for seating the wafers in the cassette. The rotation mechanism allows the cassette to be adjusted to meet a robotic arm which extracts wafers from the cassette. Where the cassette is part of a Standard Mechanical InterFace (SMIF) system, the pod is placed onto the interface apparatus, where the pod cover is removed to allow processing of the wafers. A bellows is provided to cover the exposed cassette, thus creating an extended mini-environment including the interface apparatus, tool, and pod cover. In one embodiment, the interface apparatus includes robotic arms and a lift mechanism. Operation of the lift mechanism to open a container effects the positioning of the robotic arms to transfer the container to the tool. In one embodiment, semiconductor wafers in a cassette are ionized as the robotic arms position to grip the cassette. A gripping mechanism is adapted to grip a variety of containers in a variety of positions. A base receiver accepts containers in a first and a second orientation. A main controller provides control to a plurality of motors and functional blocks within the interface apparatus.
