SYSTEM, METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR CREATION, TRANSMISSION, AND TRACKING OF ELECTRONIC DOCUMENT
First Claim
1. A system for creating and delivering a locked electronic document in a computing environment, comprising:
- a computer readable system memory comprising at least one program module;
a bus coupled to the computer readable system memory;
a processor coupled to the bus; and
program instructions, stored on the system memory for execution by the processor, to;
create a lead sheet having a unique embedded identifier,add a payload to the lead sheet to form the electronic package;
add a blanking layer to the electronic package to obscure the payload from view of a recipient;
send the electronic package in the computing environment to a designated recipient;
validate the designated recipient'"'"'s identity; and
remove the blanking layer in response to validating the designated recipient'"'"'s identity, thereby allowing the recipient to view the payload.

Abstract
A system for creating and delivering a locked electronic document in a computing environment includes a computer readable system memory comprising at least one program module, a bus coupled to the computer readable system memory, a processor coupled to the bus, and program instructions stored on the system memory for execution by the processor. The program instructions create a lead sheet having a unique embedded identifier, add a payload to the lead sheet to form the electronic package, add a blanking layer to the electronic package to obscure the payload from view of a recipient, send the electronic package in the computing environment to a designated recipient, validate the designated recipient'"'"'s identity, and remove the blanking layer in response to validating the designated recipient'"'"'s identity, thereby allowing the recipient to view the payload.

11. A method for creating and sending by a sender a locked electronic document and delivering the locked electronic document to a recipient in a computing environment, the method comprising the steps of:
-
creating a locked electronic document comprising a lead sheet and a payload, the lead sheet having a unique identifier for the locked electronic document; adding a blanking layer to obscure the payload from view of the recipient; sending the electronic package in the computing environment to a designated recipient; validating the recipient'"'"'s identity to assure the recipient of the electronic package is the designated recipient; and removing the blanking layer in response to validating the recipient'"'"'s identity, thereby allowing the recipient to view the payload. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A computer program product for creating and delivering a locked electronic document in a computing environment, comprising:
-
a computer readable storage device having computer readable program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions configured to; create a lead sheet having a unique embedded identifier; add a payload to the lead sheet to form the locked electronic document; add a blanking layer to the locked electronic document to obscure the payload from view of a recipient; send the electronic package in the computing environment to a designated recipient; validate the designated recipient'"'"'s identity; remove the blanking layer in response to validating the designated recipient'"'"'s identity, thereby allowing the recipient to view the payload; and track the payload by acquiring an Internet Protocol address of the recipient and correlating the Internet Protocol address to a geographic region.
