SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SECURING DATA

Some embodiments of the present invention include an apparatus for securing data and include a processor, and one or more stored sequences of instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to set a data download threshold, encrypt data to be downloaded by a user based on detecting size of the data violating the download threshold such that the user receives encrypted downloaded data, and manage a decryption key used to decrypt the encrypted downloaded data. The decryption key may be deconstructed into "N" key fragments and may be reconstructed using "K" key fragments where "N" is equal to "2K−1".
