Solution Overview

Problem

Existing anti-counterfeiting chip technologies are vulnerable to data theft during reading, leading to potential counterfeiting, as data can be easily stolen and compromised when accessed through electronic devices.

Innovation Solution

A label authenticity verification method and system that employs double encryption and verification by decomposing read parameters into ciphertext and link data, decrypting them, and comparing the resulting plaintext data to ensure authenticity, utilizing a cache database and decryption server to enhance security.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If chip reading is performed through network access, then verification convenience is improved, but data security deteriorates due to easy data theft

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveverification convenienceVSAvoiddata theft risk
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the verification process into two independent parts: ciphertext data stored in the chip and link data stored externally. This segmentation ensures that even if one part is compromised, the other remains secure, resolving the contradiction between verification convenience and data security by distributing trust across multiple components rather than relying on a single vulnerable network connection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary verification mechanism where the ciphertext data acts as a mediator between the chip and the verification system. Instead of directly accessing sensitive data through the network, the system uses the ciphertext as an intermediate layer that requires additional link data for decryption, thus maintaining convenience while preventing direct data theft.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Object-affected harmful factors

If double encryption and verification is implemented, then data security is improved, but verification complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata leakage preventionVSAvoidverification process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The verification process is segmented into distinct modular steps: reading ciphertext data, obtaining link data, decrypting ciphertext, decrypting link data, and comparing results. Each step is independently implementable and can be optimized separately, reducing the perceived complexity while maintaining strong security through the segmented approach.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-storing the ciphertext data in the chip during manufacturing and pre-obtaining the link data before verification. This preparation work is done in advance, so the actual verification process only requires simple decryption and comparison operations, reducing the complexity burden on the verification system while maintaining double encryption security.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
