multisealing

Multisealing is a technique used in the field of information security to protect sensitive data by encrypting it multiple times with different keys. This process enhances the security of the data by making it more difficult for unauthorized parties to access or decrypt the information. Each layer of encryption adds an additional barrier, requiring multiple keys to decrypt the data fully. This method is particularly useful in scenarios where data needs to be shared across multiple parties, each with their own level of access. For example, in a corporate setting, multisealing can ensure that only authorized employees with the appropriate keys can access certain documents, while others can only access less sensitive information. The technique is also employed in military and government communications to safeguard highly classified data. However, multisealing requires careful management of keys and access controls to prevent unauthorized decryption and ensure that only intended recipients can access the data.
