US Patent 11675762 Data structures for key management

A method for deleting a set of keys from a storage server is provided. The method includes generating a probabilistic data structure for a first set of keys and for each key in a second set of keys, determining whether a key of the second set of keys is found in the probabilistic data structure. The method includes identifying the key as a candidate for deletion if the key is not found in the probabilistic data structure. A system is also provided.
