Abstract:
Embodiments herein provide a method for data security. A data passcode used for data encryption in electronic devices is encrypted and secret shares of the encrypted passcode are distributed to multiple entities. Recovery of the passcode and the encrypted data is performed by obtaining the secret shares from the multiple entities to reconstruct the passcode used for data encryption.
Abstract:
A method and system optimize the time interval for a scheduled synchronization or sync between entities. The optimization of the scheduled sync may be obtained by dynamically varying the sync interval time instead of a fixed preset time interval. The method varies the scheduled sync interval based on the parameters which may include data traffic used in the sync application, a battery level status, a network type, and a roaming status. Using the method, the number of unsuccessful sync requests may be reduced.
