SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FILE AND FILE SYSTEM INTEGRITY USING META-DATA

A processor-based method for securing meta-data through a persistent signature, comprising: identifying meta-data for a file; selecting a private key, a certificate identifier and a hash algorithm identifier for the meta-data; creating an encrypted hash of the meta-data using the hash algorithm and...

Zusammenfassung:A processor-based method for securing meta-data through a persistent signature, comprising: identifying meta-data for a file; selecting a private key, a certificate identifier and a hash algorithm identifier for the meta-data; creating an encrypted hash of the meta-data using the hash algorithm and private key; and creating a persistent, independent signature for the meta-data that identifies the meta-data, certificate identifier, hash algorithm identifier, and the encrypted hash value for the meta-data.
