Solution Overview

Problem

Existing data containerization technologies are static, preventing updates to data within containers, which leads to stale data issues when shared or if the original data source is updated, posing risks of data leaks and inefficiencies.

Innovation Solution

A data management system with a data access controller that enables containerization, de-containerization, and re-containerization processes, allowing real-time modifications and updates to be reflected within data containers, using modules like containerization, de-containerization, and re-containerization modules to manage access and encryption dynamically.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If data containerization is used to protect confidential data, then data security is improved, but data cannot be updated while maintaining security

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata securityVSAvoiddata update capability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms static data containers into dynamic containers that can be updated. The system allows data within containers to be modified, synchronized, and refreshed while maintaining security controls. The containerization module enables real-time updates to containerized data through de-containerization, modification, and re-containerization processes, making the security system adaptable to changing data requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the data container into modular components that can be independently updated. The system divides data containers into manageable units that can be selectively de-containerized, modified, and re-containerized. This segmentation allows specific data portions to be updated without compromising the entire container structure or security framework.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If static containerization is implemented, then data protection is maintained, but stale data issues occur when original data sources are updated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata protectionVSAvoiddata freshness
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the system continuously monitors and synchronizes containerized data with original data sources. The data synchronization module detects updates at the source and propagates them to containerized data, ensuring containers always contain current information. This feedback loop maintains both security and data freshness simultaneously.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by establishing synchronization protocols before data staleness occurs. The containerization module proactively updates containerized data based on changes detected at the source, preventing stale data conditions before they arise. This proactive approach ensures data protection is maintained while preventing information loss.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If data is shared outside the container for updates, then data can be modified, but data leaks and security risks increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata modification capabilityVSAvoiddata leak risk
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces the containerization module as an intermediary between data users and the actual data. All data access, modification, and sharing operations occur through this secure intermediary layer. The module enables data to be de-containerized for legitimate updates under controlled conditions and immediately re-containerized, preventing direct exposure of sensitive data and eliminating data leak risks while maintaining modification capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
