Abstract
The present invention discloses methods and systems for redundantly securing data using an array of independent networks. Methods include the steps of: upon receiving a storage request and secret data for securely storing the secret data, independently requesting random data from each of at least one independent partner network out of an array of at least two independent partner networks; independently receiving the random data from each of at least one independent partner network, wherein respective random data is also stored on a respective independent partner network; cumulatively calculating complementary data as an encrypted form of the secret data with a complement function using the random data; and sending the complementary data to an independent storage partner network for storage, wherein the independent storage partner network is part of the array, and wherein the independent storage partner network is independent from at least one independent partner network.
