Digital Mailroom Registration via Asymmetric Cryptography
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods for managing large quantities of correspondence in apartment buildings, such as registered mail and certified email, are obsolete, costly, and do not guarantee delivery awareness to recipients, as they are not digital and may not be accessible to all individuals.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for registering an electronic mobile device to a server for an automated digital mailroom process using asymmetric cryptography, allowing for completely digital communication without paper documentation, ensuring ease of use, cost-effectiveness, reliability, and quick delivery through encrypted messages.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional methods like registered mail or certified email are used, then delivery confirmation is achieved, but cost and time consumption increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces mechanical postal delivery systems with electronic communication systems. Messages are transmitted digitally through a server to mobile devices, eliminating the need for physical mail handling, sorting, and delivery. This substitution maintains delivery confirmation through electronic acknowledgment while drastically reducing time consumption and operational costs.
2Reliability
If fax or PEC is used, then delivery confirmation is obtained, but accessibility and ease of use deteriorate as not all citizens have these tools
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal communication system that works across multiple device types and operating systems. The server can send messages to various mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, feature phones) using different protocols, making the system accessible to all citizens regardless of their specific device or technical expertise. This universality maintains delivery confirmation while dramatically improving accessibility.
3Reliability
If paper-based registered mail transmission is used, then legal requirements are met, but digitalization and cost-effectiveness are compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a digital copy of the traditional mail delivery process. Instead of transmitting physical paper documents, the system transmits digital representations of messages through a server to mobile devices. The digital copies maintain all necessary legal attributes (sender, recipient, timestamp, acknowledgment) while enabling full digitalization of the mailroom process, improving both compliance and cost-effectiveness.

AI summary
A method for registering an electronic mobile device (2) to a server (3) comprising the steps of: generating a public key (KB1+) and a private key (KB1-) associated with a profile UA of a user of the electronic mobile device (2); generating a public key (KB2+) and a private key (KB2-) associated with the server (3); transmitting the public key (KB1+) associated with the profile UA of the user to the server (3); encrypting the public key (KB2+) of the server (3) through the public key (KB1+) associated with the profile UA of the user so as to generate an encrypted message (COD); transmitting the encrypted message (COD) to the electronic mobile device (2); decoding the encrypted message (COD) using the private key (KB1-) associated with the profile UA of the user.
