Abstract (en)
[origin: DE19750779C1] The method involves encoding the proprietary data with a session key (S) and subdividing the session key in partial keys (s1,...st) which are all required for the reconstruction of the session key. Each partial key is encoded with each encoding key from a quantity of encoding keys, and the entirety of these encryptions is placed as access block before the data. The assignment of the encoding keys to legitimate subscribers is undertaken according to geometric structures and methods of finite geometry, whereby each legitimate subscriber (U) gets a subset of the encoding keys (PK(U)) which allows him to personally reconstruct respectively one of the partial keys, and therefore the session key. The assignment of the encoding keys guarantees, that a characteristic resilience, necessary for the identification of a traitor is guaranteed, and that at least one traitor can be undoubtedly identified with the help of a traitor search algorithm.
