Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional access control systems face challenges in providing personalized permission settings for user devices in a network without overconsumption of processing resources, leading to degraded system performance and vulnerability to data leakage and malicious attacks.

Innovation Solution

An access control system that offloads machine learning model training to a quantum computing device for load balancing, allowing dynamic access control decisions based on user and document content, using machine learning models trained locally or remotely to optimize resource utilization and improve security.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If personalized permission settings are provided for each device, then information security is improved, but processing resource consumption increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation securityVSAvoidprocessing resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the access control system into multiple components: a machine learning model training module that creates permission models, an access control module that enforces permissions, and a machine learning inference module that evaluates access requests. This segmentation allows personalized security decisions to be made efficiently without requiring full processing resources for each decision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary action by training machine learning models in advance to create permission settings. The access control module uses pre-trained models to quickly evaluate access requests without requiring intensive processing resources at the time of each access decision, thus providing personalized security efficiently.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If permission settings are frequently adjusted, then adaptability to new threats is improved, but system performance degrades due to resource strain

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to new threatsVSAvoidsystem performance
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic access control by continuously training machine learning models with new data and updating permission settings adaptively. The system can adjust permissions in response to new threats while using efficient inference mechanisms that maintain system performance during these adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where access decisions and security events are fed back into the machine learning model training process. This allows the system to learn from actual security events and adjust permissions dynamically while maintaining performance through efficient model updates rather than complete retraining.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Reliability

If delayed response to attacks is prevented, then information security is improved, but processing resources are overconsumed by constant monitoring

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation securityVSAvoidprocessing resources
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by training machine learning models in advance to recognize attack patterns and anomalies. When security events occur, the pre-trained models can quickly evaluate whether an attack is underway without requiring intensive real-time processing, thus providing rapid threat detection with minimal resource consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
