Secure decentralized system and method
A node associated with an individual and/or organization receives a storage identifier for new data associated with a consumer and/or business. A node and distributed data sources are used to share the new consumer and/or business data with a network of nodes. The node updates a node with the storage identifier for the new consumer and/or business data. The node receives, from a device associated with the individual and/or organization, a request for the new data. The node obtains the storage identifier for the new data from the node. The node obtains the new data by using the storage identifier to search the distributed data sources. The node provides the new consumer and/or business data to the device. The node performs actions to obtain additional new consumer and/or business data from the distributed data sources or provide the additional new consumer and/or business data to the distributed data sources.
1. A method for credit score computation and sharing, comprising the steps of:
providing a network of nodes, comprising:
a network node having a tamper resistant data structure,
a plurality of networked nodes,
a distributed filesystem that stores a plurality of commercial actor data, and
wherein the network node restricts access to the distributed filesystem to the plurality of networked nodes;
receiving by a first node of the plurality of networked nodes a request from a second node of the plurality of networked nodes to access the plurality of commercial actor data on the distributed filesystem;
authenticating the request;
relaying the request to the network of nodes through the network node;
performing a function on the distributed filesystem to retrieve the commercial actor data in response to the request; and
providing a response to the request based on the commercial actor data via the first node to the second node.
2. The method for credit score computation and sharing of claim 1 , further comprising the steps of:
computing a credit score based on the commercial actor data; and
providing the credit score via the first node to the second node in response to the request.
3. The method for credit score computation and sharing of claim 2 , wherein the step of computing a credit score is performed using a machine learning algorithm.
4. The method for credit score computation and sharing of claim 3 , further comprising the step of determining an amount of credit to offer, the step performed using the machine learning algorithm.
5. The method for credit score computation and sharing of claim 3 , further comprising the step of determining an type of credit to offer, the step performed using the machine learning algorithm.
6. The method for credit score computation and sharing of claim 1 , further comprising the step of obtaining a cryptographic key used to process the request.
7. The method for credit score computation and sharing of claim 6 , wherein the cryptographic key is a public key used to encrypt data received in connection with the request, and wherein the encrypted data is stored on the distributed filesystem in response to the request.
8. The method for credit score computation and sharing of claim 6 , wherein the cryptographic key is a private key used to decrypt data retrieved from the distributed filesystem in response to the request.
