Abstract
In various examples, an encrypted file such as one representing an encrypted game build may be distributed with an encrypted content-encryption key that was used to encrypt the file and/or an identifier associated with a key-encryption key that was used to encrypt the content-encryption key. An authorized recipient may extract the encrypted content-encryption key and the identifier from the encrypted file, use the identifier to retrieve a corresponding key-encryption key, use the key-encryption key to decrypt the encrypted content-encryption key, and use the decrypted content-encryption key to decrypt the file. Taking an encrypted game build for cloud gaming as an example, a cloud gaming platform may decrypt, attach, and mount the build (e.g., as a block device or other virtual data disk) using the decrypted content-encryption key. Accordingly, the game build may be installed and executed without the need to distribute the game build to the end user.
