A data protection implementation solution includes utilizing a peer-to-peer network and incorporating an auditing method to record and/or track transactions related to a customer's data. A private peer-to-peer network such as inter planetary file system (IPFS) is used to achieve secured and fast data accessibility while also managing data modifications. An auditing method such as blockchain is used to record activity related to data within the IPFS network. The IPFS network may include a plurality of nodes, among which data is distributed. Devices are registered with the network, and public keys, private keys, and node identifiers are used to authenticate users and secure the data. By incorporating blockchain with the IPFS network, file commit transactions are validated and a clear ledger regarding time of modification and count of file edits is provided.
