Abstract

A computer-implemented method when executed by data processing hardware of a user device causes the data processing hardware to perform operations. The operations include obtaining, from a message server, an encrypted message encrypted by a single-use data encryption key (DEK) and an encrypted DEK including the single-use DEK encrypted by a public key (PK). The operations also include transmitting, to a key access control list server (KACLS), a decryption request requesting the KACLS decrypt the encrypted DEK with a PRK associated with the PK. The decryption request includes the encrypted DEK. The KACLS is independent from the message server. The operations also include receiving, from the KACLS, the single-use DEK and decrypting, using the single-use DEK, the encrypted message.
