For example, it detects the anxiety and doubt that users feel when accessing a site. This improves the accuracy of phishing detection by analyzing users' emotional responses and identifying fraudulent sites.

[0071] The phishing detection unit can apply the results of phishing detection to mobile and desktop apps, ensuring protection across all devices. For example, the generative AI can detect phishing scams on smartphones and tablets. This allows the results of phishing detection to be applied to mobile and desktop apps, ensuring protection across all devices and ensuring user safety.

[0072] The phishing detection unit can reflect the results of phishing detection in a company's security education program, thereby improving employees' security awareness. For example, the phishing detection unit uses a generative AI to reflect the results of phishing detection in a company's security education program, thereby improving employees' security awareness. For example, detected phishing cases can be added to education materials. In this way, the results of phishing detection can be reflected in a company's security education program, improving employees' security awareness and strengthening the security of the entire company.

[0073] The phishing detection unit can use the emotion estimation function to analyze the emotional reactions of users who receive a phishing warning and provide appropriate support. For example, the phishing detection unit uses a generation AI to analyze the emotional reactions of users who receive a phishing warning and provide appropriate support. For example, the phishing detection unit provides advice to reduce the anxiety and stress that users feel when they receive a warning. In this way, by analyzing the emotional reactions of users who receive a phishing warning and providing appropriate support, the psychological burden on users is reduced.

[0074] The warning unit can customize the content of the warning message based on the user's level of understanding and past reactions to provide an effective warning. For example, the generation AI customizes the content of the warning message based on the user's level of understanding and past reactions to provide an effective warning. For example, the message is adjusted based on the user's reaction when receiving a similar warning in the past. In this way, the content of the warning message can be customized based on the user's level of understanding and past reactions to provide an effective warning, thereby deepening the user's understanding and encouraging a prompt response.

[0075] The warning unit can include specific countermeasures and next steps in the warning message, allowing the user to respond immediately. For example, the generation AI can include specific countermeasures and next steps in the warning message, allowing the user to respond immediately. For example, it can present steps for deleting suspicious emails and how to change passwords. In this way, including specific countermeasures and next steps in the warning message allows the user to respond immediately, encouraging a quick response.

[0076] The warning unit can use the emotion estimation function to analyze the user's emotional reaction when receiving a warning message and provide advice to reduce stress. For example, the warning unit analyzes the user's emotional reaction when the generation AI receives a warning message and provides advice to reduce stress. For example, it suggests breathing techniques or stretching to help relax. In this way, the user's emotional reaction when receiving a warning message is analyzed and advice to reduce stress is provided, thereby reducing the user's psychological burden.

[0077] The warning unit provides a warning message through a voice assistant or smart speaker, making it possible to accommodate the visually impaired and elderly. For example, the generation AI provides a warning message through a voice assistant or smart speaker, making it possible to accommodate the visually impaired and elderly. For example, the warning message is delivered aloud through Amazon Alexa or Google Home. This allows the warning message to be provided through a voice assistant or smart speaker, making it possible to accommodate the visually impaired and elderly, providing effective warnings to a greater number of users.

[0078] The warning unit can integrate warning messages into a company's security dashboard, allowing administrators to grasp the warning status of all users at a glance. For example, the warning unit uses a generation AI to integrate warning messages into a company's security dashboard, allowing administrators to grasp the warning status of all users at a glance. For example, the warning history of each user is displayed on the dashboard. This allows warning messages to be integrated into a company's security dashboard, allowing administrators to grasp the warning status of all users at a glance, thereby strengthening security management across the company.

[0079] The warning unit can use the emotion estimation function to adjust the content and timing of the warning message to match the user's emotional state and provide an effective warning. For example, the generation AI uses the emotion estimation function to adjust the content and timing of the warning message to match the user's emotional state and provide an effective warning. For example, a warning can be displayed when the user is relaxed. In this way, the content and timing of the warning message can be adjusted to match the user's emotional state and an effective warning can be provided, thereby reducing the user's psychological burden and encouraging a prompt response.

[0080] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0081] The security system can further include a behavior analysis unit that analyzes a user's behavior history. The behavior analysis unit, for example, analyzes the patterns of websites and applications that a user normally accesses and identifies abnormal behavior. For example, it detects access to a specific site during a time when access is not normally made, or access from a device that is not normally used. This allows the system to identify abnormal behavior based on the user's behavior patterns and detect suspicious behavior with greater accuracy.

[0082] The security system may further include a biometric authentication unit that analyzes the user's biometric information. The biometric authentication unit authenticates the user using biometric information such as fingerprints, facial recognition, or voiceprints. For example, fingerprint authentication is required when opening an email, preventing unauthorized access. This authentication using biometric information strengthens security and prevents unauthorized access.

[0083] The security system may further include a device monitoring unit that monitors the security status of the user's device. The device monitoring unit, for example, monitors the status of the device's virus scan or firewall, and issues a warning if an abnormality is detected. For example, a warning is displayed if a virus infection is suspected or if the firewall is disabled. This allows the security status of the device to be monitored, and a prompt response can be taken if an abnormality is detected.

[0084] The security system may further include a network analysis unit that analyzes the user's network traffic. The network analysis unit may, for example, analyze the user's network traffic in real time to detect suspicious traffic. For example, it may detect large amounts of data transmission that do not normally occur or suspicious connections to specific IP addresses. This allows the security system to strengthen by analyzing network traffic and detecting suspicious traffic.

[0085] The security system may further include an environment monitoring unit that monitors the user's physical environment. The environment monitoring unit may monitor the physical environment using, for example, surveillance cameras and sensors in an office or home. For example, the environment monitoring unit may detect the intrusion of a suspicious person or abnormal behavior. This allows for enhanced security by monitoring the physical environment and detecting suspicious behavior.

[0086] The security system can also estimate the user's emotions and adjust the content of the warning message based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the warning message can be changed to a more gentle expression. This reduces the user's psychological burden by providing a warning message that is appropriate for the user's emotional state, allowing for more effective warnings.

[0087] The security system can further estimate the user's emotions and assess the risk of phishing based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is feeling anxious, the system can determine that the risk of phishing is high and issue a stronger warning. This allows the system to assess the risk of phishing based on the user's emotional state and provide an appropriate warning.

[0088] The security system can also estimate the user's emotions and customize the content of security training based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the system can provide security training that includes advice on how to relax. This allows for effective security training that is tailored to the user's emotional state.

[0089] The security system can further estimate the user's emotions and warn users about phishing sites based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user feels suspicious, the system can intensify the warnings about phishing sites. This ensures the user's safety by warning users about phishing sites based on their emotional state.

[0090] The security system can also estimate the user's emotions and adjust the security policy based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, the security policy can be relaxed. This reduces the user's psychological burden by providing a security policy that corresponds to the user's emotional state, enabling effective security management.

[0091] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.

[0092] Step 1: The email analysis unit analyzes the contents of the suspicious email. For example, the generation AI analyzes the contents of the email received by the user and detects suspicious elements. For example, the generation AI detects unnatural wording in the body of the email or cases where the sender's address is forged. Step 2: The link analysis unit analyzes the links in the email analyzed by the email analysis unit. For example, the generation AI analyzes links contained in emails and web pages to detect suspicious links. For example, the generation AI detects when the linked URL is from an untrusted domain or when the linked page is a phishing site. Step 3: The phishing detection unit detects phishing scams based on the content of the links analyzed by the link analysis unit. For example, the generation AI detects fraudulent activities through phishing scams. For example, the generation AI detects fake login pages, fake payment pages, etc. Step 4: The warning unit issues a warning to the user based on the suspicious elements detected by the phishing detection unit. For example, if the generation AI detects a suspicious email, link, or phishing scam, it will issue a warning to the user. The generation AI will warn the user, for example, through a pop-up notification or email notification.

[0135] The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0136] The storage 32 stores a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[0137] In the robot 414, the processor 46 performs the identification process. A identification program 60 is stored in the storage 50. The processor 46 reads the identification program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read identification program 60 on the RAM 48. The identification process is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A in accordance with the identification program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The robot 414 may have a data generation model and an emotion identification model similar to the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59.

[0138] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 communicates with the server device having the data generation model 58 to obtain a processing result (such as a prediction result) using the data generation model 58. Furthermore, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device (for example, a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.) owned by a user.

[0139] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the control target 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires voice indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits voice data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the voice data.

[0140] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of the data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 receives a prompt containing an instruction, as well as inference data such as voice data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing an image. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The identification processing unit 290 performs the above-mentioned identification processing using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model so as to output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction. In this case, the data generation model 58 can output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction. The data processing device 12 and the like include multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AIs other than the generative AI. The AI ​​other than the generative AI may be, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, support vector machine (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural network (CNN), recurrent neural network (RNN), generative adversarial network (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. The AI ​​may also be an AI agent. When the processes of each of the above-mentioned parts are performed by AI, the processes may be performed in part or entirely by AI, but are not limited to these examples. The processes performed by AI, including the generative AI, may be replaced with rule-based processes.

[0141] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but may also be executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. Furthermore, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information required for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, etc., and the robot 414 acquires or collects information required for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device, etc.

[0142] The emotion identification model 59 as an emotion engine may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the user's emotion according to an emotion map (see FIG. 9), which is a specific mapping. Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.

[0143] FIG. 9 illustrates an emotion map 400 on which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. Emotions closer to the center of the concentric circles are more primitive. Emotions representing states and behaviors arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion encompasses both emotions and mental states. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are arranged on the left side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally induced by situational judgment are arranged on the right side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the concentric circles. Furthermore, the emotion of "pleasure" is arranged on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "discomfort" is arranged on the lower side. In this way, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure by which emotions are generated, and emotions that tend to occur simultaneously are mapped close to each other.

[0144] These emotions are distributed in the 3 o'clock direction on emotion map 400, and typically fluctuate between relief and anxiety. In the right half of emotion map 400, situational awareness dominates over internal sensations, resulting in a sense of calm.

[0145] The inside of emotion map 400 represents what is going on in the mind, and the outside of emotion map 400 represents behavior, so the further you go outside emotion map 400, the more visible the emotions become (the more they are expressed in behavior).

[0146] Human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. Emotions can also be created for robots, cars, and motorcycles, based on various balances, such as posture and remaining battery life. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on speech emotion recognition and brain physiological signal analysis systems for emotions, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "reaction," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.

[0147] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is a negative emotion on the situation side, around the middle of "repentance" or "reflection." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is a positive emotion on the response side, around "desire." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."

[0148] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values ​​indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple pieces of training data that are combinations of user input and emotion values ​​indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions that are located close to each other have similar values, as in the emotion map 900 shown in FIG. 10. FIG. 10 shows an example in which multiple emotions, "relieved," "calm," and "reassuring," have similar emotion values.

[0149] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by one computer 22, but the technology disclosed herein is not limited to this, and distributed processing of the specific process may be performed by multiple computers including computer 22.

[0150] In the above embodiment, an example in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32 has been described, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-transitory storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-transitory storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes the specific processing in accordance with the specific processing program 56.

[0151] Alternatively, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 in response to a request from the data processing device 12.

[0152] It is not necessary to store all of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store all of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; only a portion of the specific processing program 56 may be stored.

[0153] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following types of processors: A processor, for example, is a CPU, which is a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource for executing a specific process by executing software, i.e., a program. A processor also includes a dedicated electrical circuit, such as an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), a PLD (Programmable Logic Device), or an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), which is a processor with a circuit configuration designed specifically for executing a specific process. Each processor has built-in or connected memory, and each processor uses the memory to execute the specific process.

[0154] The hardware resource that executes the specific process may be configured with one of these various processors, or may be configured with a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Also, the hardware resource that executes the specific process may be a single processor.

[0155] As an example of a system configured with a single processor, first, one processor is configured by combining one or more CPUs and software, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that executes a specific process. Second, there is a system that uses a processor that realizes the functions of an entire system including multiple hardware resources that execute a specific process on a single IC chip, as typified by SoC (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above-mentioned various processors as hardware resources.

[0156] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can be, more specifically, an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. The specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps may be deleted, new steps may be added, or the processing order may be rearranged, without departing from the spirit of the invention.

[0157] In the above example, the first to fourth embodiments have been described separately, but some or all of these embodiments may be combined. The smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are merely examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. In the above example, the first and second embodiments have been described separately, but they may be combined.

[0158] The above-described description and illustrations are a detailed explanation of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure and are merely an example of the technology of the present disclosure. For example, the above description of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects is an explanation of an example of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary parts may be deleted, new elements may be added, or replacements may be made to the above-described description and illustrations within the scope of the gist of the technology of the present disclosure. Furthermore, to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure, the above-described description and illustrations omit explanations of common technical knowledge that do not require particular explanation to enable the implementation of the technology of the present disclosure.
