Abstract
Systems and techniques for cryptographically protecting data in a computer memory are disclosed. The techniques include dividing the data into a first portion and a second portion, encrypting the first portion of the data to create a first stored form of the data, encrypting the second portion of the data, and storing, in the computer memory, the first stored form of the data and a second stored form of the data. The techniques include, to encrypt the second portion, calculating a hash based on the first stored form of the data, applying a first pseudorandom function to the hash to obtain a bit sequence, and combining the bit sequence with the second portion of the data to obtain the second stored form of the data.
