System and method for securely transmitting, and improving the transmission of, tag based protocol files containing proprietary information
First Claim
1. A method for securely transmitting a tag based protocol file comprising proprietary data from a server to a client device, the method comprising the steps of:
- identifying the proprietary data within the tag based protocol file, extracting and storing locally the proprietary data;
inserting at least one reference to the locally stored proprietary data in the tag based protocol file to provide a modified tag based protocol file;
transmitting the modified tag based protocol file using a standard communication protocol; and
, upon request of the client device, transmitting the locally stored proprietary data according to a secure communication protocol, the request comprising the at least one reference to the locally stored proprietary data.

Abstract
A system and a method for securely transmitting a tag based protocol file comprising proprietary data from a Web Server to a Client Web Browser. The proprietary data is extracted from the tag based protocol file, locally stored and replaced by references and/or calls to a data insert function. The modified tag based protocol file may be sent according to a standard communication protocol. The Client Web Browser can send a request to the Web Server for retrieving extracted proprietary data, which is transmitted by the Web Server according to a secure communication protocol. The proprietary data may also be extracted from the tag based protocol files, encrypted and replaced by calls to data insert functions whose parameters are decryption functions having encrypted data as parameters. Calls to a data insert function associated with the decryption function allow the Client Web Browser to send a request to the Web Server for the decryption key. The request for the decryption key and its transfer are done according to a secure communication protocol.
