Mobile Link Verification for Fast Secure User Validation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems lack a quick and efficient method for verifying identity and vaccination status in ecommerce transactions and controlled spaces, requiring multiple steps and parties, which is cumbersome and inefficient.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for dynamic-link verification using a mobile device that engages with an initiator, auto-populates a text message with metadata, and sends it to a message gateway for verification, generating configurable access tokens based on event-specific rules.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional identity verification methods are used for ecommerce transactions and controlled space entry, then verification security is maintained, but verification time and user effort increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-registers user biometric data and verification rules in advance, so that when verification is needed, the system can quickly retrieve and compare against pre-stored data rather than collecting and processing everything from scratch at the moment of verification
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary verification system that acts as a bridge between users and the verification authorities. This intermediary system handles the complex verification processes automatically, reducing both time and user effort while maintaining security through automated rule evaluation and biometric comparison
2Reliability
If traditional identity verification methods are used, then thorough verification is achieved, but the number of steps and parties involved increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple verification functions (biometric capture, data retrieval, rule evaluation, and decision-making) into a single integrated verification system. This consolidation reduces the number of separate steps and parties users must interact with, while maintaining thorough verification through automated multi-factor checks
Solution Approach 2:
The verification system is designed to handle multiple types of verification (identity verification, vaccination status verification, age verification) through a single unified platform that can adapt to different verification rules and requirements, reducing complexity by providing a universal solution rather than separate systems for each verification type
3Adaptability or versatility
If manual verification processes are used, then flexibility in verification rules is maintained, but automation level and processing speed decrease
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs dynamic verification rules that can be configured and adjusted without requiring system reconfiguration. The automated system can adapt to different verification scenarios by loading appropriate rule sets, maintaining flexibility while achieving high automation levels through programmable decision logic
Solution Approach 2:
The verification system allows dynamic changes in verification parameters and rules based on the specific context (e.g., different events, different user types, different security levels). The automated system processes these parameter changes seamlessly, maintaining both flexibility and high automation through configurable rule engines

AI summary
A system and method for a dynamic-link verification process between an electronic device and a transaction or event. The first step is engagement by a mobile electronic device with an initiator that is linked with a specific verification event that triggers a text message to auto-populate on a mobile electronic device. The message comprising metadata about the user and the event or transaction. The second step is for the electronic device to send the auto-populated message to a message gateway thus initiating the verification of the user. The message gateway works with a management service and one or more databases to verify the identity and other aspects of the user based on instructions provided by the event host. Additionally, configurable access tokens may be generated for each verified user wherein the access tokens provide access to an event or controlled physical location based on the configuration.
