Abstract
A computer-implemented method for providing security to access and store data may include transferring first information for display from a token device having a memory to a first computing device at a first time, the token device connected to the first computing device and the first information describing public data stored on the token device. A request to retrieve a root directory of private data may be received, the request specifying a root directory name. In response to receiving the request to retrieve a root directory of private data, the root directory may be requested by establishing a wireless connection between the token device and a server computing device, transferring the root directory name to the server computing device, wherein the root directory name is used as a password to retrieve the root directory, and receiving the root directory from the server computing device by the token device.
