Server-Based Visitor Authentication Code Generation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional visitor registration processes for business negotiations are inefficient, wasting time and manpower as they require manual handling and lack streamlined access authentication and authority management.
Innovation Solution
A server-based system that generates and manages visitor codes for access authentication, incorporating profile information and random codes for secure and time-limited access authority, allowing for real-time adjustments to visit times and access permissions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual visitor registration and access control processes are used, then security can be maintained through human verification, but time consumption and labor costs increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The visitor terminal automatically completes registration by inputting visitor code, company name, and visitor name, with the system autonomously generating access authority codes and managing the entire authentication process without manual intervention, thereby reducing registration time while maintaining security through automated verification
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-generates access authority codes and validates visitor information before the actual visit occurs, preparing all authentication credentials in advance so that the actual access control process becomes a simple verification step rather than a time-consuming manual procedure
2Productivity
If automated visitor code generation is implemented, then registration efficiency improves, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The server performs multiple functions including visitor code generation, access authority management, time modification handling, and validation within a single centralized platform, eliminating the need for separate systems for each function and thereby managing complexity through consolidation rather than proliferation of components
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces a standardized visitor code as an intermediary element that carries encrypted visit information, allowing different components (visitor terminal, server, access control points) to communicate through a common protocol without requiring complex direct integrations between each component
3Ease of operation
If fixed access authority is granted to visitors, then security control is simplified, but flexibility to adjust visit times is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The access authority is designed as a dynamic credential containing encoded visit time information that can be programmatically modified by the server upon receiving modification requests, allowing the system to transition between fixed and flexible time control as needed while maintaining a unified authentication mechanism throughout

AI summary
Disclosed is a method for access authentication. The method includes: receiving profile information of a visitor through a server, and generating a visitor code and transmitting the same to a visitor terminal, and generating a random code based on a valid visitor code, and receiving a decoding result based on decoding the random code and the visitor code by the visit terminal, and predetermining an access authority for the visitor for a predetermined time as the decoding result is successfully matched.
