Abstract:
A method of encrypting data for secure transfer and storage of electronic data comprising the steps of:accessing a conventional web browser from a client computer; logging onto a qualified server and providing account qualifier data; reading a transfer information inquiry page upon verification of account qualifier; obtaining a first applet compiled on said server in response to the inquiry page, the first applet operable to perform the steps of allowing a client to select a data file to be transferred to the qualified server, generating a unique random encryption sequence, encrypting the selected data file to form an encrypted data packet; forwarding the data packet to said qualified server for storage; storing the randomly generated encryption sequence on the qualified server; and deleting the first applet from the client computer; and providing a means for decrypting said cncrypted data packet comprising the steps of: accessing a conventional web browser; logging onto a qualified server and providing account qualifier data; reading a transfer information inquiry page verification of account qualifier; and obtaining a second applet compiled on the server in response to said inquiry page, the second applet operable to perform the steps of displaying files available to a recipient; allowing the recipient to select a file to be retrieved from the qualified server; retrieving the encrypted data packet and original encryption sequence associated with the selected file; calculating the decryption sequence based on the original encryption sequence; decrypting the encrypted data packet; transferring the file to the client computer; and deleting the second applet from the client computer.
