Application: Rollback of comment migration to cloud storage (Patent ID: US20230418502A1)
The patent filed by SAP SE focuses on protecting the confidentiality and privacy of user comments stored on the cloud through encryption. It involves a migration engine located in a browser behind a firewall that efficiently manages mass onboarding, offboarding, or key rotation of comments on the cloud through batch processing. The migration engine checks for a migration status and batch timestamp stored on the cloud to prevent overlapping migration operations, ensuring graceful rollback if needed.
The method outlined in the patent involves receiving migration instructions to modify the security status of comments in batches, checking previous migration status and batch timestamps to avoid concurrent operations, and utilizing a crypto server for encryption and decryption processes. The patent also covers scenarios where comments are stored unencrypted, encrypted, or decrypted based on the type of migration instruction received. Additionally, the patent extends to computer-readable storage mediums and computer systems configured to implement the described methods, emphasizing the importance of secure and efficient management of user comments on the cloud while maintaining data privacy and integrity.
