Authentication System with Exit-Triggered Consent Verification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users may feel distrustful or unfair when they realize that consent matters have changed without their knowledge after leaving a specific area or using a service, leading to potential unauthorized consent.
Innovation Solution
An authentication system that includes a consent confirmation process, where users are prompted to confirm their consent status upon exiting the area or service, and allows withdrawal of consent via a communication terminal, ensuring that consent is only granted when explicitly agreed upon.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If consent matters are allowed to change after user exits the specific area, then the system can adapt to new requirements and update consent terms, but the user may feel distrustful or unfair when realizing consent terms have changed without their knowledge
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by detecting user exit and proactively presenting a consent confirmation screen before any consent status changes take effect. This allows users to review and confirm or withdraw consent before the system adapts consent terms, maintaining user trust while enabling system adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by notifying users of consent status changes and requiring their confirmation or withdrawal. This feedback loop ensures users are aware of and control consent terms, preventing distrust while allowing the system to update consent matters based on changing requirements.
2Productivity
If the system automatically uses previously granted consent without reconfirmation, then operational efficiency is improved, but the actual consent matters may differ from what the user recognized at the time of consent
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary detection of user exit and presents consent confirmation before processing. This preliminary action ensures consent accuracy is verified before the system acts on consent status, preventing information loss while maintaining efficient processing for confirmed consents.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by allowing users to confirm or withdraw consent through a simple interface when exiting the specific area. This maintains productivity by letting users quickly reaffirm consent while ensuring accuracy by giving them direct control to correct any mismatches between their recognition and actual consent terms.
3Reliability
If the system requests consent confirmation upon user exit, then user trust and consent accuracy are improved, but additional interaction steps are required from the user
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts the consent confirmation process as a separate, optional step that only occurs when users exit the specific area. This isolates the additional interaction requirement to only when needed, maintaining ease of operation for continuous users while ensuring consent accuracy when circumstances change.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies partial action by requesting consent confirmation only in specific circumstances (when users exit the specific area), not for all users at all times. This reduces the overall interaction burden while maintaining reliability where it matters most - when consent terms may have changed.
Data Source
AI summary
An authentication system is configured to authenticate a user for entering a specific area or using a specific service provided in the specific area. One or more processors of the authentication system are configured to execute: a consent confirmation process of accepting consent from the user to one or more consent matters, which are needed in the specific area or when using the specific service; an update process of updating the consent status depending on whether or not there is the consent; and an authentication process of permitting the user to enter the specific area or to use the specific service on condition that there is the consent. The consent confirmation process includes a detection process of detecting exit of the user from the specific area, and a withdrawal confirmation process of accepting a withdrawal of the consent from the user at a time of the exit.
