Solution Overview
Problem
Social infrastructure systems, such as monitoring cameras, face challenges in maintaining security due to the difficulty in frequently replacing equipment, leading to insufficient security measures against malware attacks.
Innovation Solution
A communication control device and system that includes a communication unit for wireless communication and a jamming control unit to interfere with unauthorized devices, ensuring secure communication by encrypting data and restricting wireless communication to authorized devices using jamming radio waves.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If equipment in social infrastructure systems is frequently replaced to improve security, then security measures are enhanced, but system stability and operational continuity deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a communication control device as an intermediary between existing social infrastructure equipment and the network. This mediator performs security functions (authentication, encryption, jamming) without requiring changes to the original equipment, thus improving security while maintaining system stability and avoiding frequent replacements
Solution Approach 2:
The security function is segmented from the main equipment into a separate communication control device. This allows the security component to be updated or replaced independently without affecting the stability of the core social infrastructure equipment
2Stability of the object's composition
If existing equipment is not replaced, then system stability is maintained, but security measures become insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
A communication control device is deployed as an intermediary that enhances security for existing equipment without requiring modifications or replacements. The intermediary handles authentication, data encryption, and jamming functions, allowing old equipment to operate securely within the updated architecture
3Reliability
If jamming radio waves are output to interfere with unauthorized wireless communication, then security against malware attacks is improved, but interference with legitimate communication may occur
Solution Approach 1:
The communication control device monitors wireless communication signals and uses feedback to determine whether to activate jamming. By detecting authentication status and communication legitimacy, the system selectively applies jamming only to unauthorized devices, preventing interference with legitimate communication while maintaining security
Solution Approach 2:
The jamming function is applied locally and selectively to specific unauthorized devices rather than broadly to all wireless communications. The system identifies target devices through authentication failure or malicious behavior patterns and directs jamming only toward those specific sources, minimizing collateral interference
