Abstract

A computer implemented method to provide encrypted protected data in response to an unauthorized access request and unencrypted protected data in response to an authorized access request may include the following steps: receiving a first access request for accessing protected data; determining if the first access request identifies the protected data through a specified namespace; and returning an encrypted version of the protected data in response to the first access request if the first access request did not identify the protected data through the specified namespace. Optionally, the method may include the steps of: receiving a second access request to access the protected data; determining if the second access request identifies the protected data through the specified namespace; and returning an unencrypted version of the protected data in response to the second access request only if the second access request identifies the protected data through the specified namespace.
