Browsing Management Apparatus for Secure Conference Data Distribution
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current network conference systems face challenges in securely and efficiently distributing conference data, such as images and sound recordings, to participants while ensuring access control and authentication.
Innovation Solution
A browsing management apparatus generates unique location information and access IDs for each participant, allowing secure access to conference content through a server apparatus connected to a network, using a database to manage participant information and authenticate users via a URL or optically readable codes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If conference data is distributed to participants through network conference systems, then data distribution efficiency is improved, but security and access control become problematic
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the access control mechanism by generating unique location information for each participant rather than using a single shared access method. This allows individualized authentication while maintaining efficient data distribution to authorized users.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary authentication mechanism where the system generates and manages unique location information that acts as a mediator between the conference data and participants. This intermediary layer ensures secure access control without hindering data distribution efficiency.
2Reliability
If unique access information is generated for each participant, then access security is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by using a standardized unique location information format that can serve multiple functions: authentication, identification, and access control. This multi-functional approach improves security without proportionally increasing system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses copying by generating unique location information that can be replicated and distributed to participants through various channels (email, QR codes). This copying mechanism enables secure access without requiring complex individualized authentication systems for each participant.
3Reliability
If authentication mechanisms are implemented, then unauthorized access is prevented, but ease of access to conference content is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables easy access by copying unique location information to participants through multiple convenient channels such as email and QR codes. This allows participants to authenticate and access conference content easily without complex authentication procedures.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements self-service by allowing participants to automatically authenticate using their unique location information without requiring manual verification or complex authentication steps. The system automatically verifies and grants access, maintaining both security and convenience.

AI summary
A browsing management apparatus includes a location information generating portion that generates unique location information that includes a location of a content used in a conference and identification information identifying a participant of the conference, a transmitting portion that transmits the unique location information to the participant of the conference, and an identifying portion that receives an access designating the unique location information from a terminal device used by the participant of the conference and identifies the participant of the conference with the unique location information.
