Solution Overview

Problem

Organizations face challenges in accurately assessing the risk associated with forms used to collect sensitive data due to the complexity of factors involved, such as data privacy laws, industry profiles, and government regulations, leading to subjective and inconsistent risk evaluations that can result in data breaches.

Innovation Solution

A form analysis platform utilizing cloud computing, natural language processing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and web crawling to generate and analyze forms based on industry profiles, government regulations, and form field justifications, providing objective scores and recommendations to enhance data privacy and security.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If automated form analysis is implemented to improve consistency and objectivity of risk assessments, then measurement precision and reliability are improved, but device complexity increases due to integration of multiple analysis components

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverisk assessment accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The form analysis system is divided into distinct modular components: a form generator that creates forms based on templates, a form analyzer that evaluates submitted forms against criteria, and a risk assessor that calculates risk scores. Each component performs a specific function, allowing the complex analysis task to be broken into manageable segments that can be developed, maintained, and scaled independently while maintaining overall system consistency and objectivity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If comprehensive form analysis incorporating multiple factors is performed to improve reliability of risk assessment, then measurement precision is improved, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverisk assessment reliabilityVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-defining analysis criteria, risk factors, and evaluation rules in the form generator and analyzer components before forms are submitted. Templates and assessment frameworks are established in advance, allowing the system to quickly match submitted forms against pre-configured criteria rather than creating analysis frameworks in real-time, thus maintaining comprehensive assessment reliability while reducing processing time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If automated actions are implemented based on analysis scores to improve productivity, then automated operations increase, but device complexity increases due to additional automation components

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveform processing efficiencyVSAvoidautomation system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where the form analyzer generates risk scores that automatically trigger predetermined actions in the risk assessor component. Based on the analyzed form data and calculated risk levels, the system provides feedback loops that automatically route forms to appropriate review queues, generate notifications, or initiate remediation workflows, enabling automated productivity improvements through rule-based feedback rather than complex decision-making structures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A device may receive form analysis information to be used to analyze a form for an organization. The form analysis information may include an industry profile associated with the organization, a government regulation that governs the organization, and a form field justification that indicates a justification for including a particular field in the form. The device may analyze the form based on the form analysis information and based on one or more fields included in the form. The device may generate one or more scores for the one or more fields based on analyzing the form. The one or more scores may be generated based on the industry profile, the government regulation, and the form field justification. The device may perform one or more automated actions in association with the form based on the one or more scores.
