Abstract:
1. A method of placing data in a .Zip file format data container, said method including: receiving a data file; generating a first symmetric key based on first random data; encrypting said data file to form an encrypted data file, wherein said encrypting includes symmetrically encrypting said data file using said first symmetric key; generating a second symmetric key based on a second random data; encrypting said first random data using said second symmetric key to form an encrypted random data; asymmetrically encrypting said second symmetric key using a first asymmetric key to form first asymmetric key data; asymmetrically encrypting said second symmetric key using a second asymmetric key to form second asymmetric key data; and placing said encrypted data file, said encrypted random data, said first asymmetric key data and said second asymmetric key data in a data container, wherein said data container is constructed in accordance with a .Zip file format.
