Debugging Management Platform for Secure Data Channel
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional software development platforms lack information security measures during the debugging process, leading to potential leaks of sensitive and confidential data when transferring debugging data between development and test platforms.
Innovation Solution
A debugging management platform is introduced to establish a secure debugging channel by analyzing and encrypting debugging packets, managing user permissions, and recording security events, ensuring that only compliant packets are forwarded between the software development and test platforms.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a debugging channel is established between software development platform and test platform, then debugging functionality is enabled, but information security is compromised due to potential leakage of sensitive data
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a debugging management platform as an intermediary component between the software development platform and the test platform. This mediator establishes a secure debugging channel that enables debugging functionality while protecting sensitive information through packet analysis, encryption, and security policy enforcement, thus resolving the contradiction between operational ease and information security.
2Productivity
If debugging packets are transferred freely between platforms, then debugging efficiency is improved, but sensitive data may be leaked to unauthorized devices
Solution Approach 1:
The debugging management platform performs preliminary actions by analyzing and encrypting debugging packets before they are transferred between platforms. Security policies are established in advance, and the system proactively prevents sensitive data leakage through packet inspection and encryption mechanisms, allowing efficient debugging while protecting information security.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If encryption and packet analysis are implemented in the debugging channel, then information security is enhanced, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The debugging management platform serves as a specialized intermediary that consolidates encryption and packet analysis functionalities. By centralizing these security mechanisms in a dedicated mediator rather than distributing them across multiple components, the system enhances information security while managing complexity through functional consolidation and standardized interfaces.
Data Source
AI summary
A debugging management platform and an operating method for the same are provided. In the operating method, the debugging management platform operates a debugging agent service for establishing a debugging channel between a software development platform and a test platform. When receiving debugging packets are issued by the software development platform or the test platform, the debugging agent service analyzes the debugging packets and checks if the debugging packets meet an information security standard. The debugging packets are forwarded to the test platform or the software development platform if the debugging packets meet the information security standard. If the debugging packets do not meet the information security standard, the debugging packets are not forwarded, so as to ensure information security of the debugging packets that are forwarded between different environments.
