Solution Overview

Problem

Current email systems are inadequate for managing synthetic identities, as they lack compartmentalization capabilities, expose real identity data, and do not allow for easy creation and deletion of email accounts, compromising user privacy and context switching.

Innovation Solution

A synthetic identity email management platform that generates public and private key pairs for secure email account creation and management, allowing users to operate within specific identities without exposing real identity information, with features for easy account creation, deletion, and encryption to maintain privacy.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If current email systems are used for managing synthetic identities, then email functionality is provided, but user privacy is compromised and real identity data is exposed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprivacy protectionVSAvoididentity exposure
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments identity management by creating separate synthetic identity email accounts that are completely isolated from the user's real identity. Each synthetic identity is a self-contained unit with its own email address, preventing any direct linkage to the user's real personal information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary layer between the user's real identity and the email system. This intermediary manages the creation, maintenance, and deletion of synthetic identity email accounts, acting as a buffer that protects the user's real identity from exposure while still enabling email functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple synthetic identity email accounts are created manually at different providers, then email functionality is available, but the process becomes complex and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesynthetic identity managementVSAvoidaccount creation process
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the functionality of creating and managing multiple synthetic identity email accounts into a single unified system. Instead of manually creating accounts at different providers, the system consolidates this process, allowing users to manage all their synthetic identity emails through one interface.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The system provides universal functionality for managing synthetic identity email accounts across different email providers. A single platform can create, manage, and delete synthetic identity emails at multiple providers, eliminating the need for separate manual processes at each provider.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Ease of operation

If synthetic identity email accounts are created at traditional providers, then email service is provided, but accounts cannot be easily deleted and privacy assurances are lacking

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccount deletionVSAvoidprivacy assurance
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces dynamic control over synthetic identity email accounts, allowing users to easily create and delete accounts as needed. Unlike traditional email providers with rigid account management, this system enables flexible, on-demand creation and deletion of synthetic identities without bureaucratic hurdles.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the system automatically manages the lifecycle of synthetic identity email accounts. When a synthetic identity is deleted in the system, the email accounts are automatically removed from all connected providers, providing immediate feedback and ensuring complete deletion without user intervention at each provider.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

4Ease of manufacture

If real identity information is provided to email providers for account creation, then email accounts can be created, but the purpose of synthetic identities is defeated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveemail account creationVSAvoidreal identity data
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the requirement for real identity information from the email account creation process. By using synthetic identities, the system removes the need to provide real personal information such as name, date of birth, and social security number while still enabling email account creation and functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

AI summary

A machine has a processor and a memory connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions executed by the processor to receive an email account request, a name and a public key. A selected domain name is designated from a group of available domain names. A user name is generated based upon the name. An email account is formed using the user name and the selected domain name. The public key is stored.
