Summary: | An apparatus that includes a memory configured to store encryption keys and encrypted data entries. The apparatus further includes an encryption service engine configured to periodically re-encrypt the encrypted data element, which includes determining that an encryption wait time period has lapsed, obtaining a first encryption key using a first key index, and decrypting the encrypted data element using the first encryption key to recover the original data. The encryption service engine is further configured to obtain a second encryption key, encrypt the original data using the second encryption key, and modify the metadata linked with the encrypted data element with a second key index referencing the second encryption key. The encryption service engine is further configured to receive a data request for the encrypted data element, to send the encrypted data element, and to limit the bandwidth of a data channel used to send the encrypted data element. |
