Patented next generation encryption
We see a lot of press, day in day out, citing yet another breach of health, financial, or personal data.

There’s a reason for that: On some level, journalists and readers all understand that defense ends with the protection of the actual data. Is it encrypted? If so, who can access the key? Many breaches involve inside access, or compromized accounts.
