CloakFS - Invisible File System Technology

U.S. Patent 12,380,069Issued August 5, 2025

Data That Doesn't Exist — Until It Does

Dataparency LLC / Entrelid Framework

The Problem

Data Is Always Visible

$4.88M

Average Breach Cost

The financial impact of a single data breach in 2024

287

Days to Identify

Average time to detect a security breach

83%

External Actors

Breaches involving outside attackers

The Fundamental Flaw: Traditional security builds walls around data. But once attackers breach the perimeter, they can see everything.

Encryption Keys Can Be Stolen

Compromised keys expose all protected data

Edge Devices Are Vulnerable

Physical access defeats most security measures

Network Security Can Be Infiltrated

Perimeter breaches expose internal systems

Files Exist Where Hackers Expect Them

OS filesystems are predictable attack targets

The Solution

Make Data Invisible

CloakFS creates an ephemeral, memory-only file system constructed from D-ISP documents. Files exist only within the relationship — not in the OS filesystem where hackers expect them.

01

Relationship-Bound Access

Files require RDID tied to user login/passCode JWT. No relationship = no visibility.

02

Memory-Only Existence

File system lives in memory, disappears when session ends. Nothing on disk to find.

03

D-ISP Persistence

Underlying documents stored securely in distributed D-ISP platform with built-in backup.

Traditional vs. CloakFS

Traditional Security

  • Files visible on disk
  • Encryption keys can leak
  • Attackers see targets
  • Breach = full exposure

CloakFS Approach

  • Files don't exist to find
  • No keys to compromise
  • Nothing to target
  • No visible target = no attack vector

CloakFS Within the Entrelidâ„¢ Framework

CloakFS operates as the file system layer within a comprehensive security architecture built on relationship-based access control.

RDID Security Core

U.S. Patents 11,531,724 & 12,380,069. Relationship Distributed Identifiers bind data to entity relationships.

D-ISP Data Platform

Entity-centric, schema-agnostic, immutable, access-controlled data store.

D-DDN Network

NATS messaging + D-ISP + Secure Channels for distributed deployment.

CloakFS File System

Invisible, relationship-bound file storage layer.

Where CloakFS Operates

Edge Deployment

Operates at the edge where traditional security is most vulnerable. Edge-native design protects forward-deployed systems.

On-Premises

Works seamlessly in private data centers with same security model at edge and cloud deployments.

Cloud Infrastructure

Deploys wherever D-DDN operates with no location constraints or security compromises.

Integration Benefits

Unified Security Model

Same RDID-based access control across all layers for both human and machine entities.

Built-in Distribution

D-DDN provides automatic backup, high availability, and access from anywhere on the network.

Zero Trust Compatible

Entity-centric security aligns with Zero Trust principles automatically without additional configuration.

Developer Utility

Operational Use on the Network

CloakFS is designed as an operational utility for developers working on distributed networks — not just a security add-on, but a core development resource.

Programmatic Access

  • Function Library — Link directly into programs for programmatic access to CloakFS files
  • Go Embeddable Module — Currently available for Go developers
  • Additional Language Bindings — Coming for other languages

CLI Access

Command Line Interpreter (REPL) for interactive user access. Partially developed; will be completed for both versions.

Standard Development Resource

Treat secure, invisible storage as a standard development resource with no custom security layers needed.

Built-in RDID Protection

Security is integrated, not bolted on. Same API whether running at edge, on-prem, or cloud.

Bridge Capabilities

Import/Export capabilities bridge CloakFS and OS file systems seamlessly.

Features and Benefits

Ephemeral Architecture

Memory-only file system constructed from D-ISP documents. Access controlled by RDID dependent on user login/passCode JWT.

Unlimited Capacity

Store any number of files and hierarchical directories. Files under 5MB fully indexed and stored internally; 50MB and larger files on configured external data source.

Multi-Instance

Create licensed number of CloakFS instances at will, each with an assigned owner for specific purposes.

Distribution & Access

Built-in HA

D-DDN data store is distributed with backups and high availability built in.

Network Access

Access from anywhere on the network with consistent security model.

Fast Performance

Low latency operations at approximately 100ms per write with version control by timestamp.

Use Cases

Personal File System

Unique FS bound to one owner through login JWT. Secure storage for passwords, usernames, configuration details, authentication responses, and sensitive personal files.

Application User Configuration

Multiple FSs bound to individual users through application login JWT. Manages password matching, user response matching, authentication, and resource availability.

Kubernetes Pod Storage

Unique FS bound per pod instance ID. Stores configuration details, image source and deployment info, connection graphs, service directory and sidecar IPs.

Additional Applications

Developer operational utility across the network

Edge device secure configuration

User shared data stores

Targeted PII privacy-controlled advertising data

External program permissions

Any purpose requiring invisible, relationship-bound storage

8

Combined Capability

CloakFS + OTP — Information-Theoretic Security

Two layers of mathematically provable security protecting data at rest and in transit.

Quantum-Proof

Neither layer can be broken by quantum computing advances.

No Keys to Steal

RDID derives access from relationship, OTP keys are used once and discarded.

Defense in Depth

Even if one layer were somehow compromised, the other remains intact.

Unified Architecture

Both built on same RDID/Entrelid foundation for seamless integration.
