SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRACKING DATA TRANSFERRED IN A DISTRIBUTED NETWORK VIA SECURED, LAYERED DATA TAGGING

Abstract

Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, computer program products, and methods for tracking data transferred in a distributed network via secured, layered data tagging. A checkpoint sensing engine collects data flow at a checkpoint device and verifies a match between a checkpoint tag of the transaction packet and a checkpoint identifier of the checkpoint device. If no match occurs, the transaction packet it transmitted to a quarantine unit. If a match occurs, a deconstruction engine then removes the checkpoint tag, exposing an underlying second checkpoint tag corresponding with a second checkpoint device. Thereafter, the transaction packet is transmitted to the second checkpoint device.
