Mobile Meeting Security via Biometric Authentication
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The widespread use of mobile wireless devices poses a security risk due to the potential loss of sensitive information, as existing access controls are often simple passwords that can be easily compromised, and there is a need for effective management of information during electronic meetings.
Innovation Solution
A device management system that manages electronic meetings on mobile wireless devices by authenticating participants, sharing information securely, and ensuring that only authorized users can access documents, with features like biometric authentication, secure data sharing, and post-meeting data deletion to prevent unauthorized access.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If simple password access controls are used on mobile wireless devices, then ease of operation is improved, but security is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the authentication parameter from simple passwords to biometric data (fingerprints, facial recognition, iris scans). This transformation maintains ease of operation while dramatically improving security, as biometric authentication is both user-friendly and highly reliable for verifying device ownership and controlling access to sensitive information.
2Adaptability or versatility
If electronic documents are downloaded to mobile wireless devices for viewing from any location, then adaptability is improved, but security risk is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary actions by establishing device management system controls and biometric authentication protocols before documents are accessed on mobile devices. This pre-configuration enables flexible document viewing across multiple devices while maintaining security through预先 established access policies and ownership verification.
Solution Approach 2:
The device management system acts as an intermediary between the document storage system and mobile wireless devices. It mediates access requests by verifying device ownership through biometric authentication and enforcing security policies, thereby enabling adaptability while mitigating security risks associated with document dissemination.
3Reliability
If access controls are enforced on mobile wireless devices, then security is improved, but device complexity is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service through automated biometric authentication and device management system processes. The system automatically verifies device ownership, controls document access, and manages security policies without requiring complex user configuration or intervention, thereby improving security while minimizing the perceived complexity for users.

AI summary
A device management system includes a meeting support system that is configured to generate and transmit a plurality of electronic meeting invitations to a plurality of mobile wireless devices that correspond to a plurality of meeting participants and receive responses indicating whether the plurality of participants will attend the electronic meeting. The device management system receives identification data that identifies one or more documents or information that will be made available to the plurality of participants. The meeting support system determines whether the plurality of participants is authorized to access the one or more electronic documents or information. If any of the participants are not authorized to access any of the electronic documents or information, the meeting support system notifies the meeting organizer. The device management system may also include a meeting session management system that is configured to share information among the plurality of mobile wireless devices.
