Abstract:
A computer program product and a system comprising: a cluster of Secure Execution Platforms (SEPs) having connectivity to a data storage, each SEP of said cluster is configured to maintain, using a key, confidentiality of data while processing thereof; the key is shared among the SEPs of said cluster, the key is automatically generated by the cluster or portion thereof and is unavailable to any non-cluster entity; the data storage retains encrypted data that is encrypted using the key; a first SEP of the cluster is configured to encrypt client data using the key to obtain encrypted client data and store the encrypted client data in the data storage; and a second SEP of the cluster is configured to retrieve encrypted stored data from the data storage, decrypt the encrypted stored data using the key to obtain non-encrypted form of the encrypted stored data.
