Abstract

Rather than storing all data in the same manner, e.g., an encrypted manner, a security level with which to associate received data of a given type may be determined. Subsequently, distinct types of data may be stored in a distinct manner, with the manner of storage having a security level appropriate to the type of data. For example, a first type of data may be stored in an encrypted manner (i.e., with a high level of security), while a second level of data may be stored in a plain text manner (i.e., with a low level of security).
