Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If user information is shared between entities with different configurations, then collaboration and information access are improved, but security risks and permission violations increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a distributed ledger as an intermediary system that mediates between different entities. This intermediary provides a centralized yet decentralized framework for managing user information access, enabling collaboration while maintaining security through standardized permission protocols and automated verification mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically changes permission parameters based on user roles, contexts, and policies. By adjusting access parameters in real-time based on stored procedures and user characteristics, the system enables flexible collaboration while maintaining security through parameter-based access control.
2Reliability
If access control mechanisms are implemented, then security and permission compliance are improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The distributed ledger system implements self-service access control through automated verification of user credentials and permission validation. The system automatically determines access rights based on stored procedures and user characteristics, eliminating the need for complex manual access control configurations while maintaining high reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms that continuously monitor access requests and update permission states based on user actions and system events. This feedback loop ensures automatic adjustment of access controls in response to changing conditions, simplifying management while maintaining compliance.
3Stability of the object's composition
If centralized information storage is used, then data consistency and security are improved, but adaptability to different entity configurations decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the centralized storage into a distributed ledger architecture where data is maintained across multiple nodes. This segmentation preserves data consistency through consensus mechanisms while enabling each entity to access and process information according to their specific configurations, thus maintaining both stability and adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
The distributed ledger provides a universal data structure and access protocol that can accommodate different entity configurations. The system maintains a unified view of user information while allowing flexible access patterns, making it adaptable to various organizational structures without compromising data consistency.
4Reliability
If continuous monitoring for permission violations is implemented, then security response capability is improved, but processing time and system load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary verification of user credentials and permission validity before each access request is processed. By validating permissions in advance and maintaining updated access control lists in the distributed ledger, the system reduces processing time during actual data access operations while maintaining continuous security monitoring.
Solution Approach 2:
The distributed ledger enables continuous monitoring of access patterns and permission states without requiring intensive processing during each individual access request. The system maintains continuous awareness of user contexts and permission states, allowing for rapid response to violations while minimizing processing overhead through efficient data structures and indexing.
