Intermediary Security Device for Real-Time Hacking Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic device security technologies, both hardware and software-based, face limitations in detecting hacking attempts in real-time and extending the sensed region beyond the OS, often failing to prevent attacks before they occur and being restricted to specific application or OS regions.
Innovation Solution
An apparatus with a control unit and transmission/reception unit that detects designated addresses in signals between control and storage devices, transmitting secondary signals to identify uncommon data and intercept or discard potentially malicious signals, thereby predicting and preventing hacking across both OS and application regions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If existing security technologies are used, then security protection is provided, but real-time detection capability and sensed region extension are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inserts a security device between the control device and storage device to perform preliminary detection of signals before they reach the storage device. The security device intercepts first signals (read requests) from the control device, analyzes them for hacking patterns, and generates second signals to detect uncommon data in responses, enabling real-time security protection before attacks can execute.
2Reliability
If existing security technologies are used, then security protection is provided, but the sensed region is restricted to specific application or OS regions
Solution Approach 1:
The security device is designed to universally monitor all signal transmissions between the control device and storage device, regardless of the specific application or OS region. It intercepts and analyzes all first signals (read requests) and all corresponding second signals (responses), extending the sensed region to cover the entire system rather than being restricted to specific regions.
3Measurement precision
If signal interception and analysis are performed, then hacking detection is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a security device as an intermediary component between the control device and storage device. This intermediary intercepts signals, performs hacking pattern analysis, and generates detection signals without requiring modification of the existing control device or storage device, thereby improving detection accuracy while adding only one additional component to the system.
Data Source
AI summary
A method for operating an apparatus according to various embodiments may comprise the operations of: detecting whether a first signal transmitted from a control device to a storage device includes a designated address; and transmitting a second signal to the control device if the first signal includes the designated address, wherein the first signal may be a signal for transmitting, by the control device, a request for data to the storage device, and the second signal may be a signal for detecting whether uncommon data is included in a signal generated from the first signal.
