Abstract

Some embodiments provide a method for storing multiple data assets in a folder structure on a cloud services platform. The method stores a separate encrypted structure for each of the data assets on the cloud services platform. A same first key provides access to each of the encrypted structures. The method stores, on the cloud services platform, a folder structure with an encrypted copy of the first key. The method stores a parent structure of the folder on the cloud services platform. The parent structure includes an encrypted copy of a second key that provides access to the encrypted copy of the first key.
