Abstract
The disclosed embodiments include encrypted data retrieval systems and methods to provide access to encrypted data. In one of such embodiments, the method includes receiving a request to access encrypted data. The method also includes analyzing the request to determine a credential of a source electronic device seeking to access the encrypted data. The method further includes determining, based on the credential of the source electronic device, a category of the request. In response to determining the category of the request, the method further includes selecting additional credentials with which to authenticate the request. The method further includes providing an indication of the credentials to at least one operator, wherein the at least one operator is authorized to enter the additional credentials to release the encrypted data. In response to receiving the additional credentials, the method further includes transmitting the encrypted data to the source electronic device.
