Patent Application for Distributed Network Security System Providing Isolation of Customer Data

A patent application filed on June 10, 2025, by inventor Paul Michael Martini of Boston, MA, describes a distributed network security system providing isolation of customer data. The system assigns each customer a unique node in the distributed network, configured to process network traffic only from that customer, ensuring isolation of network traffic between customers.

Key Takeaways:

  • The system assigns a unique node in a distributed network to each customer, ensuring isolation of network traffic.
  • The assigned node processes network traffic only from the corresponding customer, preventing data sharing between customers.
  • The system determines when a customer requires additional processing resources and assigns a new node accordingly.
  • The assigned node applies security policies to network traffic, filtering out unauthorized traffic.
  • The system stores data associated with network traffic in a secure manner, ensuring customer data confidentiality.
  • The system can determine the location of a customer and assign a node close to that location to minimize latency.
  • The system can handle multiple customers, assigning a new node for each customer and applying security policies to their respective network traffic.
  • The system provides a multi-tenant user interface for customers, authenticating and verifying customer access to data.
  • The system generates requests to the assigned nodes to ensure secure data access and processing.

Statistics:

  • The system uses a distributed network to provide isolation of customer data.
  • The assigned node is associated with a physical computing device, with the node's type determining its function.
  • The system can determine the location of a customer and assign a node close to that location.
  • The system supports multiple customers, with each customer assigned a unique node.
  • The assigned node applies security policies to network traffic, ensuring isolation of data between customers.
  • The system stores data associated with network traffic in a secure manner.
