Message Forwarding Suspension with Identity Authentication
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing instant messaging and social network platforms face challenges in effectively prompting users about potential security risks during chats, leading to insufficient alert effectiveness and hidden security dangers due to users often overlooking or omitting security prompts.
Innovation Solution
A message forwarding method and apparatus that suspend message forwarding between accounts if a risk is detected, requiring identity authentication through matching answers to a shared identity authentication question, ensuring that only verified messages are forwarded, thereby enhancing security and reliability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If message forwarding is suspended when risk is detected, then security reliability is improved, but message transmission efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary risk assessment on messages before forwarding them. When a message is flagged as risky, the system proactively suspends forwarding and initiates identity authentication in advance, preventing potential fraud before it can cause harm. This preliminary action ensures security reliability while minimizing disruption to legitimate communications.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces an intermediary identity authentication mechanism between the message sender and receiver. When risk is detected, an authentication question is presented as an intermediary verification step. This mediator allows the system to distinguish between malicious and legitimate messages, maintaining high security reliability while preserving message transmission efficiency for authentic users.
2Reliability
If identity authentication is implemented for all messages, then fraud prevention is improved, but user operation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements identity authentication selectively rather than universally. Authentication is triggered only when risk indicators are detected in specific messages, not for all communications. This partial action approach maintains strong fraud prevention for suspicious messages while avoiding unnecessary authentication steps that would increase operation complexity for legitimate communications.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies different processing qualities to different messages based on their risk characteristics. High-risk messages receive rigorous identity authentication with detailed verification, while low-risk messages receive minimal or no authentication. This local quality differentiation ensures fraud prevention where needed while maintaining ease of operation for routine communications.
3Measurement precision
If risk detection is performed on every message, then security accuracy is improved, but system processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The risk detection process is segmented into multiple stages: initial quick screening of message content, selective detailed analysis of suspicious messages, and targeted identity authentication only for high-risk cases. This segmentation allows the system to maintain high security accuracy through thorough analysis of problematic messages while minimizing processing time for the majority of legitimate communications that pass initial screening.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs comprehensive risk detection and identity authentication only on a partial subset of messages that exhibit risk indicators. For the majority of messages that appear legitimate, the system applies minimal or no detailed analysis. This selective approach maintains high security accuracy for suspicious messages while significantly reducing overall system processing time.

AI summary
Embodiments of the present application disclose a method and a method and a device for forwarding a message, and a storage medium. The method comprises: receiving a target message transmitted by a terminal of a first account to a terminal of a second account; if the first account or the target message presents a risk, delaying forwarding the message of the terminal of the first account to the terminal of the second account; obtaining identity authentication question information and first answer information corresponding to the identity authentication question information; transmitting the identity authentication question information to the terminal of the first account; receiving second answer information corresponding to the identity authentication question information and returned by the terminal of the first account; and if the first answer information matches the second answer information, resuming forwarding the message of the terminal of the first account to the terminal of the second account.
