Abstract
A method for execution by a computing device of a storage network includes appending at least a decode threshold number of encoded key slices of a set of encoded key slices to at least some encrypted data segments of a plurality of encrypted data segments to produce secure packages. The method further includes error encoding, in accordance with error encoding parameters, the secure packages to produce sets of encoded data slices, where a first secure package of the secure packages is dispersed storage error encoded using an error encoding function of the error encoding parameters to produce a first set of encoded data slices of the sets of encoded data slices. The method further includes outputting the sets of encoded data slices for storage in memory of the storage network.
