Claim 10:
11. An apparatus for tokenization, configured to carry out a process resulting in at least one reversible token, wherein the apparatus comprises:
a plurality of network interfaces;
a plurality of control circuits each operably coupled to one of the network interfaces wherein each of the control circuits is configured as a tokenization processor that communicates with a requesting network element acting as a requestor, wherein the plurality of control circuits is further configured:
to respond to setting up by a third party of a plurality of tokenization processors, wherein the setting up comprises, at least in part, computation by the third party of an inverse of a first sum of first tokenization processor secrets and randomized splitting of the inverse as a second sum of second tokenization processor secrets, and wherein the first sum and second sum are distinct from one another;
to receive third tokenization processor secrets comprising at least one of the first tokenization processor secrets and at least one of the second tokenization processor secrets by a first tokenization processor of the plurality of tokenization processors, and to receive fourth tokenization processor secrets comprising at least one of the first tokenization processor secrets and at least one of the second tokenization processor secrets by a second tokenization processor of the plurality of tokenization processors, wherein the first tokenization processor and the second tokenization processor differ from one another, the third tokenization processor secrets include at least one of the at least one of the first tokenization processor secrets and at least one of the at least one of the second tokenization processor secrets not included within the fourth tokenization processor secrets, and the fourth tokenization processor secrets include at least one of the at least one of the first tokenization processor secrets and at least one of the at least one of the second tokenization processor secrets not included within the third tokenization processor secrets; and
to generate, as a generating operation, by at least the first tokenization processor and the second tokenization processor at least one reversible token, wherein the generating operation entails use by the first tokenization processor of at least one tokenization processor secret derived from the third tokenization processor secrets and use by the second tokenization processor of at least one tokenization processor secret derived from the fourth tokenization processor secrets, wherein the at least one tokenization processor secret derived from the third tokenization processor secrets and the at least one tokenization processor secret derived from the fourth tokenization processor secret secrets differ from one another.
