Link Data Set Management for Privacy and Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing data access technologies fail to effectively differentiate between frequently used and sensitive data sets, leading to potential privacy breaches by inadvertently displaying private or confidential links to third parties.
Innovation Solution
An information-processing device with a dual registration system, where user-selected link data sets are categorized into two lists based on usage status, ensuring that only frequently used links are displayed in the second list, while maintaining privacy by excluding sensitive links from both lists.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If all link data sets are displayed in a single list for easy access, then convenience of access is improved, but privacy protection deteriorates due to potential disclosure of sensitive links
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the link data sets into two separate lists: a first list containing all user-registered links, and a second list containing only frequently accessed links. This segmentation allows the system to provide quick access to常用 links through the second list while keeping sensitive links in the first list that are not automatically displayed, thus resolving the contradiction between access convenience and privacy protection.
2Productivity
If frequently used links are automatically displayed for convenience, then access efficiency is improved, but privacy protection deteriorates by exposing sensitive links to third parties
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different display qualities to different link data sets based on their access frequency. The second list provides high visibility and quick access for frequently used links, while the first list maintains lower visibility for less frequently accessed links. This local differentiation ensures that only links requiring frequent access are exposed, protecting sensitive links while maintaining access efficiency for常用 links.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If a dual list system is implemented to protect privacy, then privacy protection is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically monitors access frequency of link data sets and dynamically determines which links should appear in the second list without requiring manual user configuration. The specifying unit automatically identifies frequently accessed links based on usage data, and the second registering unit automatically populates the second list. This self-service approach reduces the complexity burden on users while maintaining the privacy protection benefits of the dual list system.

AI summary
An example information-processing device that includes: a first registering unit that registers, in accordance with an operation performed by a user, a link data set indicating a specific data set, a specifying unit that specifies a status of use of a link data set registered by the first registering unit or a status of use of a specific data set indicated by a link data set registered by the first registering unit, and a second registering unit that registers at least one of a plurality of link data sets registered by the first registering unit based on a status of use specified by the specifying unit.
