Abstract:
The present disclosure deals with a system and a method to determine if an unauthorized user is attempting to access securely stored data. A user enters and stores sensitive data on a user device using a first computing system. The first computing system gathers sensitive data from the user device and stores the data on a second computing system. If the first computing system detects a potential data breach when trying to access the securely stored data, the first computing system may request the user to enter a subset of the securely stored data to confirm that the user has access to the securely stored data. The second computing system verifies the subset against the securely stored data and the securely stored data is made accessible to the user. If the second computing system is unable to verify the subset the second computing system triggers an event.
