MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621047918 A) filed by Archit Dharmesh Khatri; Aditya Garad; Harsh Doshi; Nagaraju Bogiri; and Dhruv Gandhi, Pune, Maharashtra, on April 15, for 'system and method for policy-driven, self-destructing data encapsulation with environmental awareness.'
Inventor(s) include Archit Dharmesh Khatri; Aditya Garad; Harsh Doshi; Nagaraju Bogiri; and Dhruv Gandhi.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The Phoenix Protocol is a novel data-centric security framework designed to protect sensitive information distributed across uncontrolled environments. Unlike traditional encryption or cloud-storage solutions, this invention creates active, self-destructing data wrappers that travel with the data. The system encapsulates files (such as PDFs or DOCX) into secure .pfs executables embedded with intelligent policy engines. These wrappers autonomously enforce security rules-including time expiration, IP restrictions, and network lockdowns-and actively detect hostile analysis environments like sandboxes or Virtual Machines. Upon detecting a violation or unauthorized access attempt, the wrapper triggers a robust self-destruct mechanism that permanently erases the data. The system utilizes AES-256-GCM for authenticated encryption and implements a "Zero-Disk" viewing technology that renders documents purely in RAM, preventing data leakage through temporary files. This approach bridges the gap between complex enterprise Rights Management systems and accessible, user-controlled data protection."
