Does any one have references or sources on how to approach developing a web application in which the content is encrypted and unreadable for the developers or company owners; I'm referring to content such as legal docs, in which there is a need to keep information confidential for third parties.
The protected data should be the content say of Word docs, some metadata such as author (Lawyer), involved parties and maybe trial type would be searchable and not encrypted but the details and content of the document will be.
It would be visible/decrypt-able by the person (lawyer) who wrote it, by its associates if given permission and by the client (one of the parties in the document).
Ideally the metadata would be extracted and the the content encrypted for subsequent upload and storage
