Abstract
Methods, systems and devices for securely transferring digital data from a first repository to a second repository are disclosed. Per at least one embodiment, a second repository is identified with a human recognizable identifier and an internal identifier associated with such second repository is determined. When a data transfer is desired, a work order associating the data to be transferred and identifying the second repository based on each of the human identifier and the internal identifier is generated. Such work order is utilized by a data port device to open normally closed communications port to accomplish the transfer of the data to the second repository when the identity of such second repository is confirmed by the data port device. A data integrity check confirms that only the designated to be transferred data was actually transferred to the second repository designated in the work order.
