Methods and systems for distributing cryptographic data to authenticated recipients
A method for distributing cryptographic data to authenticated recipients includes receiving, by an access control management system, from a first client device, information associated with an encrypted data object. The method includes receiving, by the access control management system, from a second client device, a request for the information associated with the encrypted data object. The method includes verifying, by the access control management system, that a user of the second client device is identified in the received information associated with the encrypted data object. The method includes authenticating, by the access control management system, with an identity provider, the user of the second client device. The method includes sending, by the access control management system, to the second client device, the received information associated with the encrypted data object.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, by an access control management system, from a first client device, information associated with an encrypted data object, the information including an identification of a role assigned to a user authorized to access the encrypted data object;
receiving, by the access control management system, from a second client device, a request for the information associated with the encrypted data object;
verifying, by the access control management system, that a user of the second client device is identified in the received information associated with the encrypted data object;
verifying, by the access control management system, that the user of the second client device is assigned the role identified in the received information;
selecting, by the access control management system, an identity provider from a plurality of identity providers, based on a user identifier included in the request for the received information associated with the encrypted data object, the user identifier associated with the user of the second client device;
requesting, by the access control management system, from the selected identity provider, authentication of the user of the second client device; and
sending, by the access control management system, to the second client device, the received information associated with the encrypted data object, responsive to the authentication by the selected identity provider of the user of the second client device.
2. A method comprising:
generating, by a first client device, an encrypted data object and information associated with the encrypted data object;
selecting, by the first client device, one of a plurality of remote access control management systems;
transmitting, by the first client device, to the selected one of the plurality of remote access control management systems, the information associated with the encrypted data object;
transmitting, by the first client device, to a second client device, the encrypted data object;
selecting, by the first client device, a second of the plurality of remote access control management systems;
transmitting, by the first client device, to the selected second of the plurality of remote access control management systems, the information associated with the encrypted data object; and
transmitting, by the first client device, to a third client device, the encrypted data object.
3. A method comprising:
receiving, by an access control management system, from a first client device, information associated with an encrypted data object, the information including a specification that a second user may receive the information within a time period; receiving, by the access control management system, from a second client device, a request for the information associated with the encrypted data object; verifying, by the access control management system, that a user of the second client device is identified in the received information associated with the encrypted data object; selecting, by the access control management system, an identity provider from a plurality of identity providers, based on a user identifier included in the received information associated with the encrypted data object, the user identifier associated with the user of the second client device;
requesting, by the access control management system, from the selected identity provider, authentication of the user of the second client device; and
sending, by the access control management system, to the second client device, the received information associated with the encrypted data object, responsive to the authentication by the selected identity provider of the user of the second client device.
4. The method of claim 2 further comprising receiving, by the access control management system, from the first client device, a modified version of the information associated with the encrypted data object, the modified version revoking access by the user of the second client device during the time period.
