Abstract
A method and system is provided whereby after specialized original native format data files have been signatured and “wrapped” along with a directory into an industry standard byte stream container file for transmission over the Internet (or for use of other computer platforms), then subsequently, the container of wrapped files with its signature can be accessed by a proprietary computer platform which will then use the signature to verify the integrity of the files and will unwrap or re-create these files back into the original specialized native format for use by the proprietary computer platform.
