Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional network connection methods are used, then network connectivity is established quickly, but network security and unauthorized access prevention are compromised

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork securityVSAvoidconnection establishment speed
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary security assessments, data packet encryption, and swarm intelligence analysis before establishing network connections. This includes pre-encrypting data packets and evaluating network device security status in advance, ensuring that security checks are completed prior to connection establishment, thus maintaining both security and efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an artificial swarm intelligence engine as an intermediary between the user device and the network device. This intermediary performs security assessments, analyzes network conditions, and makes connection decisions, acting as a mediator that balances security requirements with connection efficiency without requiring direct peer-to-peer negotiation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If data packets are encrypted before transmission, then network security is improved, but processing time and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission securityVSAvoiddata packet processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

Data packets are encrypted before transmission as a preliminary action, ensuring that security measures are in place before data leaves the user device. The encryption process is integrated into the connection establishment workflow, so that while it adds processing time, it does not delay the overall connection establishment since security checks are performed in parallel with connection negotiation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical security verification methods with homomorphic encryption and swarm intelligence algorithms. These computational approaches allow for secure data processing and verification without requiring physical inspection or manual security checks, reducing overall processing time despite the computational intensity of encryption operations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for controlling and securing network connectivity using swarm intelligence. The system is configured for determining initiation of a network connection from a user device of a user with a network device, performing encryption of data packets associated with the initiation of the network connection before transmitting the data packets to the network device, transmitting the encrypted data packets associated with the initiation of the network connection to the network device, extracting one or more identifiers associated with the network device, determining if the network device is secure, via an artificial swarm intelligence engine, and performing an action comprising establishing the network connection based on determining that the network device is secure to connect or denying the network connection based on determining that the network device is not secure to connect.
