Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for storing data blocks in distributed storage. One example computer-implemented method includes receiving a request for data included in a data block, where the request includes index addresses for different ones of multiple storage devices of a distributed storage. The method also includes, based on the index addresses, retrieving the N segments of the data block and the M segments of chaff from the storage devices of the distributed storage, decrypting the N segments of the data block and the M segments of chaff, and discarding the M segments of chaff. The method then further includes reconstructing the data block from the retrieved N segments of the data block, thereby providing access to the data included in the data block.
