Abstract

Systems and methods for blind data leak prevention are provided. A first computer can determine if encrypted data matches a rule even without the encryption key used to encrypt the data. The first computer may encrypt the rule with a second encryption key and send the encrypted rule to a second computer, which may then encrypt the rule with the first encryption key—that is inaccessible to the first computer—and send the doubly encrypted rule back to the first computer. The first computer can then partially decrypt the rule using the second encryption key. The second computer can then encrypt data with the first encryption key and send to the first computer. The first computer can then determine if the partially encrypted rule matches the encrypted data.
