US Patent 10291395 Secure storage of data via a distributed ledger system

The present disclosure describes systems and methods for use of a distributed ledger system to securely store data. Encrypted data files of one or more computing devices may be distributed to processing nodes of the distributed ledger system. The data may be subsequently retrieved and decrypted by the computing device or another device. Because the distributed ledger system creates a chain of hashes of prior blocks, the data may be immune to modification or corruption, as any changes to blocks storing the encrypted data may be immediately apparent.
