Secure data translation using machine-readable identifiers
Disclosed are various embodiments for providing secure data translation using machine-readable identifiers, such as barcodes or quick response (QR) codes. In one embodiment, a client device may be configured to translate input data stored in a first data format to data in a universal data format and encrypt the data in the universal data format using the cryptographic key such that the data in the universal data format is only accessible by the reader device having the cryptographic key. The client device may further generate a machine-readable identifier using the data as encrypted for rendering in a display accessible by the client device. A reader device may be configured to decrypt the data as encrypted to access the data in the universal data forma; and translate the input data from the universal data format to a second data format in accordance with a second format setting.

determine a sensitive portion and a non-sensitive portion of the data in the universal data format;
encrypt the sensitive portion of the data in the universal data format using a cryptographic key to obtain an encrypted amount of data such that the sensitive portion of the data in the universal data format is only accessible by a reader device having the cryptographic key;
encrypt the non-sensitive portion of the data in the universal data format using a second cryptographic key to obtain a second encrypted amount of data such that the non-sensitive portion of the data in the universal data format is only accessible by the reader device having the second cryptographic key; and
generate a machine-readable identifier using the first and the second encrypted amount of data; and display the machine-readable identifier in a lock screen of a display of the client device.
