Abstract
Techniques are provided for securing data storage by slicing swapped data portions into data fragments and shuffling a physical storage location of the data fragments. One method comprises obtaining at least one data item; dividing the at least one data item into a plurality of data portions; swapping respective positions of at least two of the data portions of the at least one data item; slicing the plurality of data portions, following the swapping, into a plurality of data fragments; and shuffling a distribution of the data fragments across a plurality of storage nodes in a storage system by moving at least one data fragment from a current physical storage location on a current storage node to a different physical storage location on a different storage node. A predefined number of the plurality of data fragments may be needed to reconstruct the data item.
