Abstract

A system, software application and method that allows a customer to protect their proprietary database of compounds and substances while utilizing a retrosynthesis software application is disclosed. The customer's proprietary database is encrypted prior to being provided to the retrosynthesis system. This encrypted is performed using a hash and optionally a salt. The retrosynthesis algorithm then creates synthons as is traditionally done. However, after their creation, the synthons are hashed so that they may be compared to the entries in the customer's proprietary database. In this way, the actual contents of the customer's database are never made available to the retrosynthesis system or software application.
