Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems fail to securely provide access to authorized third parties while preventing unauthorized access to sensitive personal data on mobile devices, posing risks of privacy breaches and identity theft.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for electronically communicating protected accessible data to authorized third parties using a user device, processor, and database, which includes generating access codes, enabling user selection of documents, and providing secure access through encryption and user-defined settings.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If personal data is moved to mobile devices for digital access, then convenience and cost reduction are improved, but security and privacy protection deteriorate due to potential unauthorized access

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedigital access convenienceVSAvoidunauthorized access risk
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments personal identification documents into individual selectable items, allowing users to grant access to specific documents rather than all documents at once. This segmentation enables controlled access where each document can be independently authorized, reducing the risk of unauthorized access to entire document sets while maintaining digital convenience.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary access code mechanism that acts as a mediator between the user and third parties seeking document access. This intermediary layer requires additional authentication steps, preventing direct unauthorized access while still allowing legitimate access when proper authorization is provided, thus resolving the security-convenience contradiction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If access to personal identification documents is granted to third parties, then service provision is improved, but privacy protection deteriorates due to potential data breach

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice delivery efficiencyVSAvoidprivacy exposure
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by allowing different access permissions for different documents and different third parties. Each document can have its own access code and authorization settings, enabling precise control over what information is shared with whom. This selective access approach enables efficient service delivery to authorized parties while minimizing privacy exposure by limiting access to only necessary documents.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements partial action by enabling users to grant access to only specific documents rather than all documents. Users can select exactly which personal identification documents to share with third parties, providing the minimum necessary access for service delivery while maintaining privacy protection for unrelated documents.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple personal identification documents are made accessible, then versatility of service is improved, but security control becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice coverageVSAvoidaccess management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service by providing users with an intuitive interface to independently manage their own document access permissions. Users can automatically generate access codes, select which documents to share, and control access settings without requiring external administrative intervention. This self-service approach simplifies access management complexity while maintaining versatility in service coverage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-generating access codes for each document before any third-party access is requested. This preliminary preparation of access control mechanisms simplifies the overall management process, as the system is already configured to handle multiple documents with individual access controls in place, reducing the complexity of managing versatile document access.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A system and method for electronically communicating protected accessible data of a user to an authorized third party is described. The system allows the user to authorize access to the protected accessible data by the third party while preventing access to data that is not authorized. The system presents an interface that facilitates the user to provide the protected accessible data including a plurality of personal identification documents of the user. Upon receiving an access request from the authorized third party the user selects the plurality of personal identification documents by checking the boxes corresponding to the plurality of personal identification documents for viewing by the authorized third party. The system enables the user to provide an access code corresponding to the selected personal identification document facilitating the authorized third party to access the selected personal identification document.
