Content recognition systems and methods for encrypted data structures

1. A system for maximizing storage of encrypted content in a storage system comprising:

one or more hardware processors; and

a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

receiving, from a first client device, an encrypted version of a first data structure and a first metadata associated with the first data structure, wherein the first data structure is encrypted commutatively with at least a first key and a common key, and wherein the one or more processors do not have access to the common key;

receiving the first key;

using the first key, partially decrypting the encrypted first data structure;

storing the partially decrypted first data structure;

receiving, from a second client device, an encrypted version of a second data structure and a second metadata associated with the second data structure, wherein the second data structure is encrypted commutatively with a second key and the common key;

receiving the second key;

using the second key, partially decrypting the encrypted second data structure;

selectively storing a copy of the partially decrypted second data structure based on whether content of the partially decrypted first data structure corresponds to content of the partially decrypted second data structure;

indexing the encrypted first data structure to an associated segment identifier using the first key, wherein the associated segment identifier is used to identify the first data structure;

validating the first client device based on the indexed encrypted first data structure;

indexing the encrypted second data structure to a different associated segment identifier using the second key, wherein the different associated segment identifier is used to identify the second data structure; and

validating the second client device based on the indexed encrypted second data structure,

wherein the operations further comprise:

indexing the stored partially decrypted first data structure and the first key to a first client device identifier; and

indexing the stored partially decrypted first data structure and the second key to a second client device identifier when the content of the partially decrypted first data structure corresponds to content of the partially decrypted second data structure.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first key, the second key, or the common key comprise a symmetrical encryption key.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving a request for content of the partially decrypted first data structure from the first client device or the second client device;

retrieving the partially decrypted first data structure;

re-encrypting the first data structure by encrypting the partially decrypted first data structure using the first key or the second key based on which of the first client device or the second client device sent the request; and

returning the re-encrypted first data structure to the first client device or the second client device.

4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the one or more processors transmit the first key or the second key with the re-encrypted first data structure.

5. The system of claim 3 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving at least one of proof to access or license to use the content of the requested partially decrypted first data structure with the request from the first client device or the second client device;

extracting the first key or the second key from the at least one of proof or a license; and

encrypting the partially decrypted first data structure using the extracted first key or second key.

6. The system of claim 3 , wherein the operations further comprise:

based on the request, sending a challenge to the first client device or the second client device; and

based on a response to the challenge, determining that the first client device or the second client device has had access to or has a license to use the content of the requested partially decrypted first data structure,

wherein the one or more processors return the re-encrypted first data structure in response to the determination.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein determining that the first client device or the second client device has had access to or has a license to use the content of the requested partially decrypted first data structure comprises:

contacting a third party configured to verify licenses to digital content; and

receiving, from the third party, the determination.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving a first segment identifier associated with the encrypted first data structure;

receiving a second segment identifier associated with the encrypted second data structure; and

determining whether content of the encrypted first data structure corresponds to content of the encrypted second data structure based on the first segment identifier associated with the encrypted first data structure and the second segment identifier associated with the encrypted second data structure.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise receiving the first segment identifier from the first client device or receiving the second segment identifier from the second client device.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise instructing the second client device not to transmit the encrypted second data structure when the first segment identifier associated with the encrypted first data structure and the second segment identifier associated with the encrypted second data structure comprise a fuzzy match.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the segment identifiers comprise a universally unique identifier (UUID) or a certificate.

12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors receive the encrypted first data structure from a first portion of the first client device and the first key from a second portion of the first client device.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the first portion and the second portion comprise distinct hardware components.

14. The system of claim 12 , wherein the first portion and the second portion comprise distinct software components executed as isolated application instances.

15. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors receive the encrypted first data structure using a first computer network and the first key using a second computer network at least partially different from the first computer network.
