Verification Server Message Anti-forgery Mechanism
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face challenges in verifying the authenticity of messages, leading to potential fraud and increased security risks due to the inability to distinguish between genuine and fake messages from legal subjects, which burdens users with the responsibility of remembering correct link addresses and phone numbers.
Innovation Solution
A method where a message server records the receiver user identifier and feature information of delivery messages, allowing a verification server to match and verify the authenticity of incoming messages by comparing them with stored records, thereby reducing user burden and enhancing security.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If users manually verify message authenticity by remembering correct link addresses and phone numbers, then user security awareness is improved, but user burden and operational complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables automated self-verification where the verification server automatically checks message authenticity against stored records without requiring user manual verification. The server autonomously compares message features with recorded delivery information and returns verification results, eliminating the need for users to remember or manually verify link addresses and phone numbers.
Solution Approach 2:
A verification server is introduced as an intermediary between the message sender and user. This mediator automatically verifies message authenticity by comparing message features with stored delivery records and returns verification results to users, transferring the verification burden from users to the automated system.
2Device complexity
If users rely on manual identification methods, then implementation simplicity is maintained, but security effectiveness deteriorates due to inability to identify simulated messages
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by pre-recording delivery message information (receiver user identifier, message content, sending time, etc.) in a database before verification is needed. When a user receives a message, the verification server quickly compares it against pre-stored records, enabling rapid and accurate fraud detection without complex real-time analysis.
3Reliability
If automated verification systems are implemented, then security effectiveness is improved, but system complexity and verification time increase
Solution Approach 1:
Delivery message information is pre-recorded and stored in the verification server before verification is needed. This preliminary storage of verification data enables rapid comparison and authentication when users need to verify messages, minimizing verification time while maintaining high security effectiveness.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates simplified copies of verification data by storing key message features (receiver identifier, message content, sending time) in a database. These copied records enable fast comparison and verification without requiring complex real-time analysis of original messages, reducing verification time while maintaining accuracy.

AI summary
The present application provides a message anti-forgery implementation method, applied to a verification server. The verification server can obtain a delivery message record, the delivery message record includes receiver user identifiers and feature information of some delivery messages, and the method includes the following: receiving a message verification request uploaded by a terminal device, where the message verification request includes a receiver user identifier and verification information of a message to be verified; and returning a "verification succeeds" response to the terminal device, when the delivery message record has a delivery message that has the same receiver user identifier as the message to be verified and whose feature information matches the verification information of the message to be verified. The technical solutions of the present application provide a user with a mechanism for verifying the authenticity of a received message. As such, a fake message sent by a subject pretending to be real can be identified, and the network security of the user can be improved.
