Abstract
The cyber owner of the asset can transfer cyber ownership to a second entity based on a transaction and using an escrow entity. An escrow service in association with an escrow entity is utilized to secure transfer of ownership to the second entity in accordance with the conditions of the transaction. The cyber owner initiates an escrow process by transmitting an escrow instruction to the access configuration controller. A new cryptographic key is generated responsive to the escrow instruction and is managed by a generated escrow policy indicating an escrow period. Different components of the cryptographic key are transmitted to the second entity and the escrow service. When the conditions of the transaction are satisfied during the escrow period, the escrow service transmits the component of the cryptographic key to the second entity. The second entity may use the recomposed cryptographic key to assert ownership of the asset.
