Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods for configuring security carriers in over-the-air card issuing services are complex and inefficient due to varying configuration requirements for supplementary security domains, card applications, application installation packages, and application providers across different service scenarios.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that involve adding a carrier batch field to a security carrier list, encoding batch feature information, and using this information to configure supplementary security domains, card applications, and application providers based on preset rules, allowing for efficient and standardized configuration of security carriers.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If different configuration rules are applied for different service scenarios, then the configuration can meet diverse requirements, but the configuration process becomes complicated and efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a unified configuration method that works across different service scenarios by introducing a service scenario identifier field and a standardized configuration data structure. This allows a single configuration system to handle multiple scenarios (mobile payment, public transport, etc.) without requiring separate configuration processes for each, thereby reducing complexity while maintaining adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the configuration approach by introducing new parameters (service scenario identifier, batch number, encoding rules) that allow the system to differentiate and handle various service scenarios through parameter variation rather than structural complexity. This enables flexible adaptation to different scenarios while maintaining a consistent configuration framework.
2Manufacturing precision
If manual configuration is performed for each security carrier, then specific requirements can be met, but configuration time and labor resources increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by pre-defining configuration templates and encoding rules for different service scenarios. The configuration data is prepared in advance with standardized structures, and the system automatically matches security carriers to appropriate configurations based on their identifiers, eliminating the need for manual configuration of each carrier while maintaining accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses copying by creating template configurations that can be replicated and applied to multiple security carriers. Once a configuration is defined for a particular service scenario, it can be copied and applied to all carriers serving that scenario, dramatically reducing configuration time while ensuring consistency and accuracy across all deployments.
3Adaptability or versatility
If customized security carriers are created for specific application providers, then the application requirements are met, but the configuration process becomes more complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the configuration into modular components: service scenario identifier, application provider identifier, and configuration parameters. This segmentation allows customized configurations to be built by combining predefined modules rather than creating entirely custom configurations, reducing the time required while maintaining the ability to meet specific application provider requirements.

AI summary
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and apparatus for configuring a security carrier, including: adding a carrier batch field to a security carrier list, encoding, for each security carrier in the security carrier list, a plurality of pieces of batch feature information of the security carrier according to a preset encoding rule, so as to generate carrier batch information of each security carrier, and to add same to the security carrier list; and then, according to identifier information and the carrier batch information of each security carrier, configuring a supplementary security domain, a card application, an application installation package and an application provider that need to be preset for each security carrier. Since the carrier batch information contains a plurality of pieces of batch feature information of the security carrier, security carriers in the security carrier list can be effectively distinguished according to the identifier information and the carrier batch information of the security carriers, thus a plurality of preset items that need to be preset for a plurality of security carriers having the same carrier batch information can be configured, so as to improve configuration efficiency for the security carriers.
