Secure Multiuser Distributed Storage allowing Collaboration

A true blind party is a service provider that does not have access to unencrypted data of its clients.
We note that, in such an environment, the client must securely maintain the many keys that may be
required for the files. In addition, if there are collaborating organizations, the client must securely
deliver the appropriate keys to the collaborators. This environment also makes it difficult to provide
tracking of changes and logging of access to the files.
TitanFile aims at providing a comparable level of security while still managing the encryption keys on
the service side.
A key element of the proposal is to leverage the extensive expertise of the intern and the supervisor
(Dr. Agnew) in Public Key cryptographic systems, Conventional cryptographic systems and secure
system development.
