Vaulted Ventures has deployed a cryptographic cloud-based infrastructure supporting common law legal rights management.
The new Vaulted Objects data type enables digital possession of a file (by encrypting it and binding the encrypted content to the user's digital identity) and therefore legal ownership of it via a common law "chose in possession."
