TLDR
A data protection system that integrates a database with Windows Explorer in the Microsoft Windows 9X and NT Environments that mimics the Windows Explorer user interface, enabling the user to apply already known use paradigms is presented in this article.Abstract:
A data protection system that integrates a database with Windows Explorer in the Microsoft Windows 9X and NT Environments that mimics the Windows Explorer user interface, enabling the user to apply already known use paradigms. The data protection system appears as an extension to Windows Explorer and visibly appears as a folder item called the data vault. The data vault is a virtual disk that represents the underlying database. The database creates records and stores information about files backed up to removable secondary storage medium. Files may be backed up manually or automatically. A schedule can be set up for automatic protection of selected files and file types. The database can be searched to find files for restoration purposes without having to load secondary storage medium. Once a file or files are selected, the data protection system indicates which labeled removable secondary storage medium must be loaded for retrieval.read more

Systems and Methods for Secure Transaction Management and Electronic Rights Protection
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a secure content distribution method for a configurable general-purpose electronic commercial transaction/distribution control system, which includes a process for encapsulating digital information in one or more digital containers, a process of encrypting at least a portion of digital information, a protocol for associating at least partially secure control information for managing interactions with encrypted digital information and/or digital container, and a process that delivering one or multiple digital containers to a digital information user.
Patent
Data storage and protection system
TL;DR: In this paper, a data file monitor intercepts all communication between application programs and the file system to obtain data file status and activity information, which is used to identify data files which are transmitted to a backup media for storage along with directory information that identifies the stored files.
Patent
Identifying and requesting data in network using identifiers which are based on contents of data
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a content delivery method that includes determining a data identifier for a particular data item, the data identifier being determined using a given function of the data comprising the data item; and responsive to a request for the particular data items, the request including at least the dat identifier of the particular dat item, providing the specific data item from a given one of the servers of the network of servers.
Patent
Data integration by object management
TL;DR: In this paper, an object based data processing system including an extensible set of object types and a corresponding set of "object managers" wherein each object manager is a program for operating with the data stored in a corresponding type of object.
