Abstract
A system for transmitting data is disclosed that includes a file distribution system operating on a processor that is configured to identify one or more files for distribution to a device, forward error correction data for the one or more files, and a cryptographic key associated with the device. A Merkle tree system operating on the processor is configured to receive the forward error correction data and to generate an encrypted root hash. A data transmission system operating on the processor is configured to transmit the one or more files and the encrypted root hash to a predetermined device.
