US Patent 10075291 Data deduplication and compression evaluation methods and systems

Deduplication and compression evaluation methods and systems involve one or more processors obfuscating plain text file data in each file of a computer file system using a first cipher encryption scheme, obfuscating each plain text file name representing the plain text file data in each file of the computer file system using a second cipher encryption scheme, and associating each obfuscated file name representing the plain text file data of each of the plurality of files of the computer file system with the obfuscated file data of each of the plurality of files of the computer system. In addition, each plain text directory name for each of the obfuscated file names associated with the obfuscated file data in each of the plurality of files of the computer file system is obfuscated using a third cipher encryption scheme.
