Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of terminal communication support technology, and in particular to a virtual SIM card account management method and device. Background Art

[0002] The emergence of virtual SIM (Subscriber Identification Module) card technology has made it unnecessary for more and more terminal devices to set up separate SIM card slots, such as mobile phones, smart watches, tablets, etc., which makes terminal devices lighter and thinner. Therefore, virtual SIM cards are deeply loved by many manufacturers. However, there is a common problem with the use of virtual SIM cards. At present, the use of virtual SIM cards is to download the operator's application software through the terminal. When the user downloads the application software and registers a virtual SIM card account with identity information, he can also obtain a different virtual SIM card account by registering a virtual SIM card account with the same identity information. It is easy to have multiple cards for one household. Since the existing method of registering a virtual SIM card account to obtain virtual SIM card services lacks the means to limit the number of times a user registers a virtual SIM card account, it causes a great waste of virtual SIM card resources.

[0066] The specific implementation of the virtual SIM card account management device of the present invention is basically the same as the embodiments of the virtual SIM card account management method described below, and will not be described in detail herein.

[0067] Based on the above structure, various embodiments of the virtual SIM card account management method of the present invention are proposed.

[0068] The invention provides a virtual SIM card account management method.

[0069] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a flowchart of the first embodiment of the virtual SIM card account management method of the present invention.

[0070] In this embodiment, an embodiment of a virtual SIM card account management method is provided. It should be noted that although a logical sequence is shown in the flow chart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be performed in a different order than that shown here.

[0071] In this embodiment, the virtual SIM card account management method includes:

[0072] Step S1, obtaining registration information of a virtual SIM card.

[0073] The registration information is entered by the user through the terminal device, and the user needs to obtain a virtual SIM card account by submitting the registration information. The registration information must include the user's identity authentication information and the password corresponding to the user's identity authentication information, but it can also include preset question response information, which is used to retrieve the password when the user forgets the password.

[0074] The user identity authentication information includes the user's biometric information and the user's ID number. The user's biometric information includes at least one of the user's fingerprint information, the user's retinal identification information, the user's voice identification information, the user's iris identification information, and the user's facial identification information. When a user registers for the first time, the registration information must include the user's biometric information, the user's ID number, and the password. When the user's biometric information, the user's ID number, and the password are detected in the registration information, the user's biometric information, the user's ID number, and the password are bound and stored together. When the user logs in, he only needs to enter one of the user's biometric information and the user's ID number, as well as the password.

[0075] Given that user biometric information is highly representative of an individual, it is recommended that users log in with their biometric information. However, considering that identification may fail due to physical discomfort or unusual appearance of the user, the user ID number is bound and stored with the user biometric information. When login with the user biometric information fails, the user ID number can be used to log in. The user ID number is not very confidential and can be easily stolen. The user biometric information is more confidential, but it is also possible to be stolen, so the registration information also includes the password corresponding to the user identity authentication information. The password can be a string of numbers, a group of symbols, or a combination of numbers and symbols. The password can further protect the security of the virtual SIM card account.

[0076] Step S2, detecting whether there is a pre-stored virtual SIM card account matching the registration information.

[0077] After the registration information of the virtual SIM card is obtained, it is determined whether the owner of the registration information already has a virtual SIM card account according to the registration information, that is, whether a virtual SIM card account matching the registration information has been pre-stored.

[0078] Furthermore, step S2 further includes:

[0079] Step a, extracting the user identity authentication information in the registration information, detecting whether the user identity authentication information has been pre-stored, and if so, pre-stored the virtual SIM card account matching the registration information.

[0080] After obtaining the registration information, extract the user identity authentication information in the registration information, and determine whether the user identity authentication information has been pre-stored, so as to determine whether the registration information has obtained a virtual SIM card account, that is, determine whether a virtual SIM card account matching the registration information is pre-stored. If the user identity authentication information has been pre-stored, it is determined that a virtual SIM card account matching the registration information is pre-stored, and the user identity authentication information is the user name of the virtual SIM card account; if the user identity authentication information has not been pre-stored, it is determined that a virtual SIM card account matching the registration information is not pre-stored.

[0081] Furthermore, after step S2, the method further includes:

[0082] Step b: if the virtual SIM card account is not pre-stored, creating a virtual SIM card account for the registration information as the pre-stored virtual SIM card account matching the registration information.

[0083] If it is detected that the input registration information does not obtain a virtual SIM card account, a window for filling in a password will be output, and the filled-in password is the password corresponding to the user identity authentication information in the registration information. When the password is obtained, the user identity authentication information and the password are bound and stored together, and then a virtual SIM card account is created for the registration information. The user identity authentication information is the user name of the virtual SIM card account, and the virtual SIM card account is the pre-stored virtual SIM card account that matches the registration information.

[0084] The password may be filled in together with the registration information, or may be filled in after confirming that the registration information has not obtained a virtual SIM card account.

[0085] The virtual SIM card account may be expressed on the device interface as a string of numbers, a set of symbols, or a combination of numbers and symbols automatically generated after the device obtains the registration information and password, or it may be the user identity information in the identity authentication information, or the user ID number.

[0086] Step S3: If yes, the virtual SIM card account is determined as a pre-stored account.

[0087] When it is detected that the input registration information has obtained a virtual SIM card account, it is determined that the virtual SIM card account is an existing account, that is, a pre-stored account, and a login interface and login instructions are output for the pre-stored account, prompting the inputter of the pre-stored account to enter the login information to log in to the virtual SIM card account matching the registration information.

[0088] Step S4, using the pre-stored account to obtain login information.

[0089] After detecting that the input registration information has obtained a virtual SIM card account, it is determined that the virtual SIM card account is a pre-stored account, and the user identity authentication information in the registration information is the user name of the pre-stored account, and the user name corresponding to the pre-stored account is the login information that needs to be filled in when logging into the pre-stored account. The login information includes the user identity authentication information, so the login information can be obtained from the pre-stored account. It should be noted that the user name is only part of the information in the login information. The login information also includes the password corresponding to the user identity authentication information, as well as other information (which will be involved in the specific embodiment 2). The person who inputs the login information clicks the login instruction to fill in the login information. If the user identity authentication information of the login information is the user's biometric information, when the person who inputs the login information clicks the login instruction, the person who inputs the login information is automatically identified by the camera carried, and a window for filling in the password is opened. The login information can be obtained after the person who inputs the login information has completed inputting it.

[0090] It should be noted that the person who inputs the login information may or may not be the owner of the login information. When the owner of the login information urgently needs the resources of the virtual SIM card, but is not allowed to log in to the virtual SIM card account due to objective reasons, the ID number and password can be told to other trusted people to help obtain the resources of the virtual SIM card. This is another advantage of this implementation of binding the user's ID number with the user's biometric information.

[0091] The present invention obtains registration information of a virtual SIM card and detects whether a virtual SIM card account matching the registration information is pre-stored. If so, the virtual SIM card account is determined as a pre-stored account, and the login information is obtained using the pre-stored account, thereby avoiding the situation where a user who has already registered a virtual SIM card account re-registers and causes a waste of virtual SIM card resources, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the utilization rate of virtual SIM card resources.

[0092] Furthermore, a second embodiment of the virtual SIM card account management method of the present invention is proposed. The second embodiment of the virtual SIM card account management method is different from the first embodiment of the virtual SIM card account management method in that after the step S4, the method further includes:

[0093] Step c, determining whether the login information meets a preset condition.

[0094] Step d: perform preset processing according to the judgment result.

[0095] After the login information is obtained, the login information is compared with the preset information, that is, the preset conditions, to determine whether the login information meets the preset conditions, so as to determine whether to confirm the login of the pre-stored account, and pre-process the judgment result.

[0096] Furthermore, at least one of the location information in the login information matches the preset location information and the protocol IP address of the interconnection between the device networks in the login information matches the preset IP address.

[0097] The login information also includes the location information of the device used for logging in, and the Internet Protocol Address (IP Address) of the network to which the device used for logging in is connected. The preset condition information includes the preset location information and the preset IP address. The preset location information can be set to the address where the pre-stored account is registered, or to the address commonly used for logging in to the pre-stored account, etc. The preset location information can be one or more. The preset IP address can be set to the IP address of the device used when registering the pre-stored account, or to the IP address of the device commonly used for the pre-stored account, and the preset IP address can be one or more.

[0098] Further, step d comprises:

[0099] Step d1, if the preset condition is met, then determining the pre-stored account login; and / or,

[0100] Step d2: If the preset condition is not met, an error message is output.

[0101] If the location information in the login information matches the preset location information, and / or the protocol IP address interconnected between the device networks of the login information matches the preset IP address, then the login information meets the preset conditions and the pre-stored account login is determined; otherwise, the login information does not meet the preset conditions and a prompt message is output to prompt the user that there is an error in the login information.

[0102] After obtaining the login information, extract the location information in the login information, and compare the location information with the preset location information. If the location information is the same as the preset location information, the login information meets the preset conditions and the predicted account login is determined; otherwise, the login information does not meet the preset conditions and a prompt message is output to prompt the user that there is an error in the login information.

[0103] It is also possible to determine whether to confirm the predicted account login in combination with or solely through the IP address of the device in the login information. When the IP address in the login information is the same as the preset IP address, the login information also meets the preset conditions, and the preset account login is determined; otherwise, the login information does not meet the preset conditions, and a prompt message is output to prompt the user that the login information is wrong.

[0104] As long as one of step d1 and step d2 is satisfied, the predicted account login is determined. If neither step is satisfied, the pre-stored account login is not determined.

[0105] Furthermore, step d also includes:

[0106] Step d3, if the preset condition is not met, receiving verification information of the pre-stored account;

[0107] When the login information does not meet the preset conditions, a prompt message is output to prompt the inputter of the pre-stored account to input verification information, and determine whether the verification information is correct.

[0108] Step d4, if the verification information is correct, confirming the pre-stored account login; and / or,

[0109] Step d5: If the verification information is incorrect, an error message is output.

[0110] If the verification information is consistent with the pre-stored verification information, the verification information is correct and the pre-stored account login is confirmed; otherwise, the verification information is incorrect, the pre-stored account login is rejected, and a message indicating that the verification information input is incorrect is output to prompt the user that the verification information is incorrect. The verification information can be the preset question response information filled in when registering the pre-stored account, or it can be a verification code sent to the user's mobile phone of the pre-stored account when the login information does not meet the preset conditions.

[0111] Furthermore, after step d, the method further comprises:

[0112] Step e, when the pre-stored account successfully logs in based on the login information, obtaining the service request of the pre-stored account, outputting service information corresponding to the service request, and / or prompting a login success message; and / or,

[0113] Step f: when the pre-stored account fails to log in based on the login information, output a message indicating failure.

[0114] If the login information is entered correctly, or the verification code is entered correctly, the login is successful. When the inputter is informed that the login is successful, the input displays the interface of the virtual SIM card resources, obtains the service request of the pre-stored account according to the instruction of the inputter of the pre-stored account, and then outputs relevant service information according to the service request for the inputter of the pre-stored account to obtain, and / or outputs information prompting successful login.

[0115] If the verification code is entered incorrectly for multiple times, or the time taken to enter the verification code exceeds the preset time, a message indicating that the login failed will be output.

[0116] This embodiment determines whether to confirm the login of the pre-stored account by judging whether the login information of the pre-stored account meets the preset conditions, thereby preventing illegal elements from obtaining the resources of the virtual SIM card on the pre-stored account and further improving the security of the virtual SIM card resources.

[0117] Furthermore, a third embodiment of the virtual SIM card account management method of the present invention is proposed. The third embodiment of the virtual SIM card account management method is different from the first or second embodiment of the virtual SIM card account management method in that after the step S4, the method further includes:

[0118] At least one of the registration information, the virtual SIM card account, the pre-stored account, the login information, and the service request is saved as a usage record.

[0119] When the pre-stored account is successfully logged in, the service information required by the service request sent by the log-in user of the pre-stored account is retrieved and sent to the log-in user. When the log-in user obtains the required service information and stops accessing the virtual SIM card, the service request and the service information corresponding to the service request are bound and stored in the pre-stored account in the form of a historical record for easy retrieval next time it is needed. It is understandable that the registration information, virtual SIM card account, pre-stored account, and login information can also be saved together as historical records.

[0120] This embodiment associates and stores the service request input by the user of the pre-stored account and the service information obtained according to the service request in the pre-stored account, which facilitates the subsequent retrieval of the service information when needed, and further improves the access efficiency to the virtual SIM card.

[0121] In addition, to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention also provides a virtual SIM card account management device, the virtual SIM card account management device includes a memory, a processor and a virtual SIM card account management program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, and the virtual SIM card account management program implements the steps of the virtual SIM card account management method described above when executed by the processor.

[0122] It should be noted that, in this article, the terms "include", "comprises" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or system including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or system. In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "comprises a ..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or system including the element.

[0123] The serial numbers of the above embodiments of the present invention are only for description and do not represent the advantages or disadvantages of the embodiments.

[0124] Through the description of the above implementation methods, those skilled in the art can clearly understand that the above-mentioned embodiment methods can be implemented by means of software plus a necessary general hardware platform, and of course by hardware, but in many cases the former is a better implementation method. Based on such an understanding, the technical solution of the present invention, or the part that contributes to the prior art, can be embodied in the form of a software product, which is stored in a storage medium (such as ROM / RAM, a magnetic disk, or an optical disk), and includes a number of instructions for enabling a terminal device (which can be a mobile phone, a computer, a server, an air conditioner, or a network device, etc.) to execute the methods described in each embodiment of the present invention.

[0125] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
