Systems and methods for data verification and replay prevention

1. A computerized method including:

receiving a file on a computer, wherein said file on said computer contains data, wherein said data is unencrypted;

placing said file into a replication folder on a local computer storage, wherein said replication folder is a copy of a cloud storage folder, wherein said cloud storage folder includes a PIDlist file, wherein said PIDlist file includes an encryption key for a first user;

generating an unencrypted session key from random data;

using said unencrypted session key to encrypt said file forming an encrypted copy of said file, wherein said encrypted copy of said file is formatted in accordance with the .ZIP format;

using said encryption key for said first user to encrypt said unencrypted session key forming an encrypted session key;

placing said encrypted session key into a session key file; and

placing said encrypted copy of said file and said session key file onto a cloud storage folder,

wherein said encrypted files are encrypted using an unencrypted session key generated from random data,

wherein said unencrypted session key is encrypted using an encryption key for a first user that has been retrieved from said cloud based data storage.

2. The computerized method of claim 1 wherein said replication folder includes an SID file.

3. The computerized method of claim 2 wherein said SID file includes a decryption key of a first user.

4. The computerized method of claim 2 wherein said SID file resides in a different cloud storage folder than the encrypted copy of said file.

5. The computerized method of claim 1 wherein said PIDlist file resides on a different cloud storage folder than an encrypted copy of said file.

6. The computerized method of claim 1 wherein said PIDlist file includes encryption key of a second user.

7. The computerized method of claim 1 wherein said session key is encrypted using the encryption key of a second user.

8. The computerized method of claim 1 wherein said session key file resides on a different cloud storage folder than an encrypted copy of said file.

9. A system for secure folder replication, said system including:

a user computer; and

a cloud-based data storage;

wherein a cloud-based data storage application is installed on said user computer, wherein said cloud-based data storage application provides an application folder on said user computer and data files placed in said application folder are copied to said cloud-based data storage,

wherein a secure folder replication system is also installed on said user computer, wherein said secure folder replication system provides a secure folder on said user computer and data files placed in said secure folder are automatically encrypted by said secure folder replication system to form encrypted files, wherein said encrypted files are formatted in accordance with the .ZIP format,

wherein said encrypted files are encrypted using an unencrypted session key generated from random data,

wherein said unencrypted session key is encrypted using an encryption key for a first user that has been retrieved from said cloud based data storage,

wherein said encrypted files are passed to said application folder and are copied to said cloud-based data storage.

10. The computerized system of claim 9 wherein said secure folder includes an SID file.

11. The computerized system of claim 10 wherein said SID file includes a decryption key of a first user.

12. The computerized system of claim 9 wherein said cloud-based data storage includes a PIDlist file.

13. The computerized system of claim 12 wherein said PIDlist file includes an encryption key of a first user.

14. The computerized system of claim 10 wherein said SID file resides on a different cloud storage folder than the encrypted copy of said file.

15. The computerized system of claim 12 wherein said PIDlist file resides on a different cloud storage folder than the encrypted copy of said file.

16. A computerized method including:

creating a shared folder on a first user computer, wherein said shared folder is associated with a shared folder session key generated from random data and stored on said first user computer,

wherein data stored in said shared folder is automatically copied to a cloud storage folder,

wherein said cloud storage folder includes a PIDlist file, wherein said PIDlist file includes a first user encryption key;

receiving a file at said first user computer;

generating an unencrypted session key from random data;

using said unencrypted session key to encrypt said file forming an encrypted copy of said file;

using said first encryption key for said first user to encrypt said unencrypted session key forming a first user encrypted session key;

placing said first user encrypted session key into a session key file; and

placing said encrypted copy of said file and said session key file onto a cloud storage folder,

wherein said encrypted file is encrypted using an unencrypted session key generated from random data,

wherein said unencrypted session key is encrypted using said encryption key for said first user that has been retrieved from said cloud based data storage;

placing said encrypted file in said shared folder wherein said encrypted file is automatically copied to said cloud storage folder;

providing access to said cloud storage folder to a second user;

receiving a second encryption key for said second user and adding said second encryption key to said PIDlist file for said shared folder, wherein said PIDlist file is automatically replicated on said first user computer;

using, at said first user computer, said second encryption key for said second user to encrypt said unencrypted session key to form a second user encrypted session key; and

storing said second user encrypted session key in said PIDlist.

17. The computerized method of claim 16 further including sending a hypertext link to said cloud storage folder from said first user computer to said second user computer.

18. The computerized method of claim 16 wherein said shared folder includes an SID file.

19. The computerized method of claim 16 wherein said SID file includes a decryption key of a first user.

20. The computerized method of claim 19 wherein said SID file resides in a different folder than the encrypted copy of said file.

21. The computerized method of claim 16 wherein said PIDlist file resides on a different cloud storage folder than an encrypted copy of said file.

22. The computerized method of claim 16 wherein said session key file resides on a different cloud storage folder than an encrypted copy of said file.
