System and Methods for Jurisdiction Independent Data Storage in a Multi-Vendor Cloud Environment

1 . A cloud based system for providing data security, the system comprising;

a processor; said processor creates a source data file; wherein said source data file is split into at least one fragments;

an encryption key; said encryption key associated with the at least one fragments; and wherein the at least one fragments is encrypted by the encryption key;

a plurality of cloud storage providers; wherein the at least one fragments is distributed among the plurality of cloud storage providers whereby no single cloud storage provider possesses all of the at least one fragments;

a pointer file; wherein said pointer file is created on a local computer; wherein said pointer file stores the location of the at least one fragments; and wherein said pointer file is accessed; said encryption key authenticates the plurality of cloud storage providers; the at least one fragments are transferred from the plurality of cloud storage providers to the local computer; wherein the at least one fragments are reassembled; and the source data file is deleted.

2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the encryption key is created by the user.

3 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising, wherein the encryption key is auto generated by the processor.

4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the pointer file is stored locally on a user's computer.

5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the pointer file further comprises a lookup table.

6 . A computer implemented method for providing data security in a cloud based system, the method comprising:

creating via a processor, a source data file;

splitting, via a processor said source data file into at least one fragments;

associating, via a processor an encryption key with the at least one fragments;

encrypting, via a processor the at least one fragments by the encryption key;

distributing, via a processor the at least one fragments among a plurality of cloud storage providers; whereby no single cloud storage provider possesses all of the at least one fragments;

creating a pointer file on a local computer; wherein said pointer file;

storing the location of the at least one fragments;

accessing said pointer file;

authenticating, via a processor the plurality of cloud storage providers by the encryption key;

transferring, via a processor; the at least one fragments from the plurality of cloud storage providers to the local computer;

reassembling, via a processor the at least one fragments; and wherein the source data file is deleted.

7 . A cloud based system for providing data security, the system comprising;

a processor; said processor creates a source data file; wherein said source data file is split into at least one fragments;

an encryption key; said encryption key created by a first user and associated with the at least one fragments; and wherein the at least one fragments is encrypted by the encryption key;

a plurality of cloud storage providers; wherein the at least one fragments is distributed among the plurality of cloud storage providers whereby no single cloud storage provider possesses all of the at least one fragments;

a pointer file; wherein said pointer file is created on a first local computer and the source data file is deleted; wherein said pointer files stores the location of the at least one fragments;

and wherein said pointer file and said encryption key is shared with a second user;

wherein said pointer file is accessed by the second user on a second local computer; and

wherein the second user uses said encryption key to authenticate the plurality of cloud storage providers; the at least one fragments are transferred from the plurality of cloud storage providers to the second local computer of the second user; wherein the at least one fragments are reassembled by the second user on the second local computer.

8 . The system of claim 7 , wherein the encryption key and pointer file is shared with the second user through encrypted transmission methods.

9 . The system of claim 7 , wherein the encryption key is created by the first user.

10 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising, wherein the encryption key is auto generated by the processor.

11 . The system of claim 7 , wherein the pointer file is stored locally on a first or second users computer.

12 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the pointer file further comprises a lookup table.

13 . A computer implemented method for providing data security in a cloud based system, the method comprising:

creating via a processor, a source data file on a first local computer of a first user;

splitting, via a processor said source data file into at least one fragments;

wherein the first user is creating an encryption key and Associating, via a processor the encryption key with the at least one fragments;

encrypting, via a processor the at least one fragments by the encryption key;

distributing, via a processor the at least one fragments among a plurality of cloud storage providers; whereby no single cloud storage provider possesses all of the at least one fragments;

creating a pointer file on the first local computer whereby the source data file is deleted;

wherein said pointer file and the encryption is shared by the first user to a second user; and

wherein said pointer file stores the location of the at least one fragments; and

wherein the second user is accessing said pointer file and using said encryption key to authenticate the plurality of cloud storage provider; and cause the transferring of the at least one fragments from the plurality of cloud storage providers to a second local computer of the second user; and

wherein the at least one fragments are reassembled on the second local computer of the second user.
