Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current user authentication and access control methods, such as password-based systems, are vulnerable to hacking and cracking, necessitating more effective technologies for enhancing computer security.
Innovation Solution
A method involving the parsing of bit streams into multiple equally sized strings, alternating between different modes to output varying sequences, which are used for authentication and access control, creating a dynamic password system that enhances security by periodically switching between different modes and numeral systems.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional password-based authentication methods are used, then ease of operation is maintained, but security reliability deteriorates due to vulnerability to hacking and cracking
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic authentication by alternating between multiple numeral systems (binary, decimal, hexadecimal) and varying the sequence presentation modes. The system dynamically changes the representation of authentication sequences, making static password cracking ineffective while maintaining user-friendly interaction through automated mode switching.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention changes the fundamental parameters of authentication by using multiple numeral systems instead of a single fixed password format. Each sequence can be represented in different numeral systems (binary, decimal, hexadecimal), and the system alternates between these representations, fundamentally changing how authentication data is presented and processed.
2Reliability
If static passwords are used, then ease of operation is maintained, but security reliability deteriorates due to prevalence of password hacking
Solution Approach 1:
The authentication system is segmented into multiple independent components: different numeral systems (binary, decimal, hexadecimal), multiple sequence modes, and alternating presentation mechanisms. Each segment can be independently implemented and managed, allowing the complex security system to be built from manageable modular units.
Solution Approach 2:
The same authentication sequence serves multiple functions by being representable in different numeral systems and presentable in different modes. A single sequence can be authenticated through binary representation, decimal representation, or hexadecimal representation, providing multi-functionality without requiring multiple separate passwords.
3Reliability
If dynamic password systems with multiple numeral systems are implemented, then security reliability improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs periodic alternation between different numeral systems and sequence modes. Rather than requiring the system to handle all numeral systems simultaneously, it periodically switches between binary, decimal, and hexadecimal representations in a cyclic manner, reducing the instantaneous complexity while maintaining overall security through the variety of representations.
