Secure Network Data Exchange via Centralized ASP Management
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current data communications networks lack secure, flexible, and cost-effective methods for data exchange, particularly for small businesses and individuals, as they often require proprietary networks, are complex, and lack adequate security and compatibility with disparate systems.
Innovation Solution
A secure computer network system that enables real-time data transfer, encryption, decryption, and validation, using customizable scripts and agents (zotbots) for data grouping and transmission, accessible through various devices, with an Application Service Provider (ASP) managing data and scripts to minimize hardware requirements and facilitate updates.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If proprietary networks are used for data exchange, then data security is improved, but system complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an Application Service Provider (ASP) as an intermediary that hosts and manages the data exchange system centrally. This mediator handles security, validation, and data management functions, allowing users to access secure data exchange through simplified interfaces without managing complex security infrastructure themselves. The ASP acts as the security intermediary that resolves the contradiction between secure proprietary networks and simplified user access.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts complex security management functions from individual user systems and centralizes them in the ASP-hosted environment. By taking out authentication, encryption, validation, and data storage from local systems, the patent reduces user system complexity while maintaining high security standards through centralized professional management of these extracted functions.
2Adaptability or versatility
If customized data forms and scripts are implemented, then flexibility and adaptability improve, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service capabilities where users can define and customize their own data forms, fields, and validation rules through intuitive interfaces without needing to program complex scripts. The system automatically generates the necessary scripting and validation logic based on user-defined parameters, allowing businesses to customize data exchange formats while avoiding the complexity of manual script development and maintenance.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent provides pre-configured data forms, validation templates, and scripting frameworks that are prepared in advance by the ASP. Users can select and modify these pre-prepared elements rather than creating everything from scratch, which reduces the complexity of implementation while maintaining high adaptability to specific business needs.
3Productivity
If real-time data transmission is enabled, then productivity improves, but security risks and system resource requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal data exchange system that handles multiple functions (authentication, encryption, validation, transmission, tracking) through a single integrated ASP-hosted platform. This multi-functional approach allows real-time data transmission while maintaining security through centralized control of all operations, resolving the contradiction between speed and security by providing both through a unified system.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent incorporates real-time feedback mechanisms where the system continuously monitors data transmission status, validates data integrity, and provides confirmation to users. This feedback loop ensures that real-time transmission maintains security through continuous validation and tracking, allowing high productivity without compromising reliability.
4Reliability
If validation and encryption are performed by the system, then data integrity and security improve, but processing time and computational resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs validation and encryption preparations in advance where the ASP pre-configures validation rules, encryption keys, and data formats before actual data transmission occurs. By preparing these security and validation mechanisms beforehand, the system minimizes processing time during actual data exchange while maintaining high data integrity and security standards through pre-established protocols.
Data Source
AI summary
The present invention comprises a method, system, and computer-readable medium for providing a secure computer network for the real time transfer of data. The data is grouped and stored as per user preferences. The data being transmitted is encrypted, decrypted, and validated by the system (assuming user identifications/passwords are verified). The present invention enables the use of customized forms for the data; these forms are driven by customizable scripts. It offers security and specialized messaging.
