Bidirectional Blockchain for Data Authentication

The patent segments the authentication process by creating multiple key pairs (first key pair, second key pair, etc.) instead of using a single key pair. Each key pair is associated with specific data elements, dividing the authentication function into discrete units that can be independently managed and expired, thus reducing the security window while maintaining efficiency.

The patent implements dynamic key management where key pairs have expiration dates and are rotated over time. The system transitions from static key usage to dynamic key rotation, where each subsequent key pair replaces the previous one after a predetermined period, adapting the security posture to minimize exposure time while maintaining continuous authentication capability.

The patent introduces a certificate authority as an intermediary that automatically manages the issuance, distribution, and expiration of certificates containing public keys. This intermediary handles the complexity of key rotation logistics, allowing the system to achieve frequent key rotation without proportionally increasing management complexity, as the intermediary automates the coordination between key generation, distribution, and expiration.

The system implements self-service mechanisms where clients automatically receive and update their certificates without manual intervention. The automated certificate distribution and expiration handling reduces the operational burden of frequent key rotation, allowing the system to maintain short security windows without requiring complex manual key management processes.
