🔐DataProtector

We have recently released a new version of the DataProtector SDK. Check out the latest documentation 🎉

The DataProtector tool allows application developers to provide users with unparalleled ownership over their data. End users gain the ability to invoke iExec apps without ever exposing their data to any other party. They gain complete privacy of personally identifiable information (PII) or other sensitive classes of data.

This approach to data management relies on:

• end-to-end encryption of data with access controlled entirely by the owner of the data

• confidential computing technology that ensures only authorized apps are permitted access to a user's data

• smart contracts to manage an iExec application's permissions for a user's encrypted data

The DataProtector SDK encompasses the following suite of methods:

• protectData—safeguards data by encrypting it and recording ownership as an NFT

• grantAccess—authorizes an application to process a user's data without exposing the data to any external system or user review

• revokeAllAccessObservable—removes all access granted to any iExec applications or user for a protectedData object

• revokeOneAccess—removes a specific access previously granted on a protectedData

• fetchProtectedData—retrieve a list of all protected data for one owner and/or data schema

• fetchGrantedAccess—retrieve a list of all authorized users and applications for a protectedData object containing a user's data

• processProtectedData—process a protectedData object containing a user's data with a specified iExec application

• transferOwnership—transfer a protectedData object to a new owner
