Abstract

Claims (48)

1. A method for maintaining a material data blockchain (MDC), comprising:

receiving, by a first set of processors that executes a ledger-based application and a creator Virtual Anonymity Exchange controller (VDAX) that corresponds to a creator cohort, an unnotarized material data block (MDB) from the ledger-based application, wherein the unnotarized MDB includes a metadata portion and a payload portion that contains data being stored in the MDB;

extracting, by the creator VDAX, a first sequence of bits from the metadata portion of the MDB;

generating, by the creator VDAX, a first genomic engagement factor (GEF) based on the first sequence, a first genomic differentiation object that is assigned to the creator VDAX, and first genomic regulation instructions (GRI) that are maintained by the creator VDAX;

applying, by the creator VDAX, one or more computational functions to the unnotarized MDB using the first GEF as input to obtain a creator-generated value corresponding to the unnotarized MBD;

updating, by the first set of processors, the unnotarized MBD by digitally signing the unnotarized MBD with the creator-generated value;

providing, by the first set of processors, the unnotarized MDB to one or more notary cohorts;

receiving, by the first set of processors, a respective notary value from each of the one or more notary cohorts, wherein each respective notary value is generated by a respective notary cohort of the one or more notary cohorts using respective GRI that is held by the respective notary cohort and a respective genomic differentiation object that is assigned to the respective notary cohort:

updating, by the first set of processors, the unnotarized MDB with the respective notary values received from the one or more notary cohorts to obtain a notarized MDB; and

adding, by the first set of processors, the notarized MDB to the MDC.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by a second set of processors that executes a notary VDAX corresponding to a notary cohort of the one or more notary cohorts, the unnotarized MDB;

extracting, by the notary VDAX, a second sequence of bits from the metadata portion of the MDB;

generating, by the notary VDAX, a second genomic engagement factor (GEF) based on the second sequence, a second genomic differentiation object that is assigned to the notary VDAX, and second GRI that are maintained by the notary VDAX;

applying, by the notary VDAX, one or more computational functions to the unnotarized MDB using the second GEF as input to obtain a notary value corresponding to the unnotarized MBD; and

providing, by the second set of processors, the notary value to the creator cohort.

3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

digitally signing, by the second set of processors, the unnotarized MDB with the notary value to obtain an at least partially notarized MDB; and

updating, by the second set of processors, a second MDC that is maintained by the notary cohort with the at least partially notarized MDB.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein providing the notary value to the creator cohort includes providing the at least partially notarized MDB to the creator cohort.

5. The method of claim 2 , wherein generating the second GEF includes determining a sequence conversion vector (SCV) based on the second sequence and the second GRI.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein generating the second GEF includes:

mapping the second genomic differentiation object based on the SCV to obtain a mapped genomic differentiation object;

modifying the mapped genomic differentiation object based on at least one of the SCV and the second GRI to obtain a modified mapped genomic differentiation object; and

determining the second GEF based on the modified mapped genomic differentiation object.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein generating the second GEF includes:

modifying the second genomic differentiation object based on the second GRI to obtain a modified genomic differentiation object;

mapping the modified genomic differentiation object based on the SCV to obtain a mapped modified genomic differentiation object; and

determining the second GEF based on the mapped modified genomic differentiation object.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the method further includes storing the modified genomic differentiation object, such that the modified genomic differentiation object is used to determine subsequent GEFs for other MDBs received from the creator cohort.

9. The method of claim 2 , wherein the second sequence of bits is equal to the first sequence of bits.

10. The method of claim 2 , wherein the second sequence is different than the first sequence of bits.

11. The method of claim 2 , wherein the one or more computational functions include one or more cipher-based functions that transform at least a portion of the unnotarized MDB into the notary value using the second GEF as a key.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more cipher-based functions include an encryption function.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more cipher-based functions include a disambiguation function.

14. The method of claim 2 , wherein the one or more computational functions include one or more cipherless functions that transform at least a portion of the unnotarized MDB into the notary value using the second GEF as an input parameter.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the one or more cipherless functions include a hash function.

16. The method of claim 2 , wherein the one or more computational functions include one or more cipherless functions and one or more cipher-based functions that in combination transform at least a portion of the unnotarized MDB into the notary value using the second GEF as an input parameter.

17. The method of claim 2 , wherein the second genomic differentiation object and the first genomic differentiation object are correlated genomic differentiation objects.

18. The method of claim 2 , wherein the second genomic differentiation object and the first genomic differentiation object are uncorrelated genomic differentiation objects.

19. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

receiving, by the second set of processors, a confirmation request from a verifying cohort, the confirmation request including the notarized MDB; and

generating, by the notary VDAX, a recreated notary value based on the notarized MDB based on a third sequence of bits that is extracted from the notarized MDB, the second GRI, and the second genomic data object.

20. The method of claim 19 , further comprising:

determining, by the second set of processors, whether the recreated notary value matches the notary value used to notarize the notarized MDB; and

in response to determining the recreated notary value matches the notary value used to notarize the notarized MDB, providing, by the second set of processors, a response to the verifying cohort confirming an integrity of the notarized MDB.

21. The method of claim 19 , further comprising:

providing, by the second set of processors, a response to the verifying cohort indicating the recreated notary value, wherein the verifying cohort confirms an integrity of the notarized MDB in response to determining the recreated notary value matches the notary value used to notarize the notarized MDB.
