Predefined URL Pair Verification for Secure B2B Communication
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing communication security techniques are complex and costly to implement and manage, requiring high-quality manpower and time, necessitating a simpler and quicker method for secure communication.
Innovation Solution
A method and device utilizing a predefined URL for secure communication, where a control unit transmits and receives requests and responses, verifying the authenticity of requests using a unique value and potentially higher security protocols like HTTPS, allowing for secure communication without needing advanced security implementations across all devices.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional communication security techniques (SDK, HTTPS, IP examination) are implemented, then communication security is improved, but device complexity and implementation cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-registering URL pairs (first URL and second URL) between communicating devices before actual communication occurs. This pre-established relationship allows devices to verify each other's identity through simple URL matching during communication, eliminating the need for complex security protocols like HTTPS or SDK implementations. The security verification is performed in advance through URL pair registration, making the actual communication process simpler while maintaining security.
2Reliability
If traditional communication security techniques are implemented, then communication security is improved, but implementation time and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs security setup in advance by registering URL pairs before communication begins. This preliminary registration step stores the relationship between first URLs and second URLs in a database, so that during actual communication, devices only need to perform simple URL matching operations. This dramatically reduces implementation time compared to setting up complex security infrastructure like HTTPS certificates or IP examination systems.
3Ease of manufacture
If simple communication protocols like HTTP are used, then ease of implementation is improved, but communication security deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces URL pairs as an intermediary verification mechanism between communicating devices. Instead of relying on secure protocols like HTTPS to provide security, the system uses pre-registered URL pairs as mediators to verify device identities. When a device receives a communication request, it checks whether the requester's URL matches the pre-registered second URL corresponding to its own first URL. This intermediary verification layer enables secure communication over simple HTTP protocols.
Data Source
AI summary
A communication method is securely performed by a communication device having a predefined URL. The communication method includes transmitting a first request, receiving a second request transmitted to the predefined URL, determining whether the second request corresponds to the first request, transmitting a response for the second request according to a result of the determination, and receiving a response for the first request. This method makes it possible to easily build and manage a system.
