Problems solved by technology

The possible risks mainly include: 1. How to prevent unauthorized users from pushing remote upgrade packages to terminal devices, causing potential risks? 2. How to prevent the communication content from being monitored or modified? 3. Considering the singleness and vulnerability of account passwords and passwords, how to ensure that the current operating user is the user himself? 4. How to prevent an upgrade package from being used everywhere, and how to prevent the content of the upgrade package from being known or even tampered with? 5. Can the terminal decide whether it can remotely upgrade itself according to the different environment and status of each terminal device? 6. Is there a complete monitoring record for the entire upgrade process of the terminal equipment and is it available for future reference? Can the upgrade result be checked? 7. Are there corresponding rescue measures for terminal equipment upgrade failure?

Embodiment 1

[0094] Please refer to image 3 , this embodiment provides a method for remotely upgrading a terminal device, aiming at various problems that may exist in the entire process of remote upgrading.

[0095] Specifically, the following steps are included:

[0096] S1: The terminal device establishes a long link with the cloud server.

[0097] Cloud servers are generally deployed directly on the WAN, but terminal devices are generally deployed in the LAN. In order to ensure a reliable communication path between the terminal device and the cloud server, the following sub-steps can be implemented:

[0098] S11: After the terminal device is started, the terminal device first establishes a TCP long connection with the cloud server;

[0099] S12: The terminal device regularly sends a heartbeat inspection packet to the cloud server. If it cannot receive the response packet fed back by the cloud server within the preset time period, it means that the link between the two or the cloud se...

Embodiment 2

[0110] Please refer to Figure 4 , this embodiment is further extended on the basis of Embodiment 1, and the similarities will not be repeated. The difference is:

[0111] Before the S4, also include:

[0112] S40: The cloud system administrator releases a new version of the terminal device.

[0113] Said S4 can specifically be realized through the following sub-steps:

[0114] S41: Successfully log in to the cloud server through the device administrator account. Specifically, the device administrator logs in to the cloud server with his own device administrator account and password, and after authenticating his account and password through the cloud authentication unit, he can view all the terminal devices under the account name. Preferably, the terminal devices under the name of the device administrator are stored and managed in the form of a list.

[0115] S42: Trigger an instruction to upgrade a version of a terminal device associated with the device administrator acco...

Embodiment 3

[0126] On the basis of Embodiment 2, this embodiment further extends it by adding a double confirmation step for the device administrator account, and through the multiple confirmation mechanism for the upgrade management object, unauthorized users are prevented from illegally pushing information to the terminal device resulting in risk.

[0127] Specifically, after S2, a step of binding the device administrator account with a preset communication account is also included. The communication account may be a mobile phone number, an email account, a WeChat account, or a QQ account, etc., which have personal identity properties. The system administrator binds the communication account for each device administrator account, which is convenient for the second authentication of the device administrator account. In the following, a mobile phone number is used as an example for description.

[0128] see Figure 5 , the process of the second authentication includes:

[0129] After ...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and system for remotely upgrading terminal equipment. The method comprises the following steps of: establishing a long link between the terminal equipment and a cloud server; creating multiple equipment administrator accounts in the cloud server; establishing the association relationship between the terminal equipment and an equipment administrator account; and successfully logging in the cloud server through the equipment administrator account, and performing version upgrading of the associated terminal equipment. By means of the method and the system provided by the invention, for the whole remote upgrading process of the terminal equipment, the management architecture and the technology implementation are comprehensively considered; the security of an upgrading packet, the security of a communication link, the strategy security of personal management, the security of upgrading operation, an emergency fault tolerant measure for upgrading failure, an accountability mechanism and the like are comprehensively considered and designed; and thus, the security of the upgrading process is obviously improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of equipment upgrading, in particular to a method and system for remotely upgrading terminal equipment. Background technique [0002] At present, there are many solutions for upgrading remote terminal equipment in the cloud using Internet technology, but there are very few solutions that consider the risks that may be encountered in each link of the entire remote upgrade process from a security point of view. During the operation of terminal equipment, it is very risky to remotely push and upgrade it, which may cause terminal equipment interruption or operational failure and cause commercial disputes. Therefore, a reliable and mature remote upgrade solution must fully consider the security issues of each link. [0003] The existing remote upgrade simplifies the process as follows: figure 1 As shown in the figure, there are three steps including the release of the upgrade package, the push of the upgrade package by t...
