Abstract
A fragment and shuffle erasure coding operation is disclosed. In a transformative operation, encrypted fragments are generated from an input file. The transformative operation includes one or more iterations of chunking the file and mixing the chunks to generate a mixed sequence. The mixed sequence is sliced into encrypted fragments. The encrypted fragments are shuffled in a storage system such that physical locations of the encrypted fragments change over time.
