Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing social networking platforms lack efficient tools for tracking user interactions, particularly for identifying bullying, catfishing, and other risky behaviors, and restrict third-party access, limiting the accuracy of security and privacy risk analysis.

Innovation Solution

A user-interaction-evaluation system that generates and displays targeted digital content within a social networking platform, allowing administrators to evaluate user digital media literacy through a unified graphical user interface, detecting and displaying real-time user interactions, and providing tools for controlling user actions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If existing online systems prevent access by external entities to protect user data, then user security is improved, but third-party systems cannot provide accurate security analysis services

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveuser securityVSAvoidsecurity analysis accuracy

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary evaluation system that operates within the closed online system boundaries. This intermediary conducts security evaluations by presenting simulated phishing attacks and malicious content through the existing platform interfaces, allowing third-party analysis without direct external access to user data. The intermediary bridges the gap between security protection and analysis accuracy by conducting evaluations through approved channels.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The evaluation system performs multiple functions within a single integrated platform: it conducts security assessments, delivers educational content, tracks user interactions, and generates reports all through the closed online system. This multi-functionality allows comprehensive security analysis without requiring external access, as the system handles evaluation, analysis, and education internally.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If existing online systems require users to manually review posts or messages to track behavior, then observation capability is maintained, but tracking efficiency becomes laborious and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveobservation capabilityVSAvoidtracking efficiency

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements automated evaluation mechanisms that conduct security assessments without requiring manual user intervention. The evaluation system automatically presents phishing scenarios, tracks user responses, and generates security reports through automated processes. This self-service approach maintains comprehensive observation capability while eliminating the laborious manual review process.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates real-time feedback mechanisms that automatically track and record user interactions with evaluation content. As users respond to phishing attempts or security scenarios, the system immediately captures these interactions, analyzes them, and generates feedback reports. This automated feedback loop maintains observation capability while dramatically improving tracking efficiency.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

3Reliability

If existing online systems limit access to user data, then user privacy is protected, but resources for improving security become unavailable

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveuser privacy protectionVSAvoidsecurity improvement resources

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary security evaluations and assessments before actual security incidents occur. By conducting proactive phishing simulations and security scenario presentations, the system identifies vulnerabilities and provides educational content in advance, enabling security improvements without requiring access to sensitive user data during or after incidents.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

This disclosure describes methods, non-transitory computer readable storage media, and systems that generate and present tools on an administrator user interface that can initiate a user-interaction evaluation of users' digital media proficiency and can show a snapshot of user interactions with digital content from the evaluation. For instance, the disclosed systems provide, within a graphical user interface, an option to initiate a user-interaction evaluation. Based on a selection of the option, the disclosed systems generate digital content within the social networking platform as part of the evaluation. The disclosed systems subsequently display information for the evaluation and tracking information for user interactions within the graphical user interface. In one or more portions of the graphical user interface, the disclosed systems display an evaluation dashboard including user-interaction evaluation information. In other portions of the graphical user interface, the disclosed systems display actions from user accounts interacting with the digital content.
