Abstract
Apparatus and methods are described for accessing redacted material based on user roles. An author designates portions of content as to-be-redacted. The author establishes various users roles able to access it and defines attributes or time constraints affecting the viewing/using. Upon electronically saving the content, the to-be-redacted portion is encrypted. An intermediary, such as a keytable service, mediates access between later users and the content. Upon identification of a role of a user attempting to interact with the content, and matching the role to one of the author-established roles, the encrypted redacted portion is decrypted. In this manner, users gain access to content based only on their role. The surrounding events are also loggable, traceable, and verifiable. A monitored connection between the user and the content, as well as various user interface options, are other noteworthy features. Computer program products and computing network interaction are also defined.
