Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for checking the correct processing of banknotes in automatic banknote sorting systems, which sorts certain amounts of money according to predefinable criteria into different categories, in which partial quantities are possibly destroyed and in which after the processing of a predefinable amount of money or after a certain unit of time Protocol is created in which, among other things, information about the processed banknotes is registered.
- banknotes have been used for sorting banknotes, which automatically or manually feed banknotes, pass them in sequence through a sensor system and, depending on the task and sensor result, sort them into different categories according to predefined criteria.
- Such a machine is known for example from DE-PS 27 60 269.
- An essential task of this known sorting machine is to sort banknotes flowing back from the circulation of money into banknotes which are usable and not usable for the further circulation.
- Banknotes are sorted into a third category, which are suspect of counterfeit money, cannot be identified or cannot be sorted for other reasons.
- the notes identified as unusable for the further circulation must be reliably destroyed, which can happen, for example, by the notes passing through a shredder module integrated in the sorting machine, which cuts each note into small snippets that make it impossible to restore notes.
- Money processing at the sorting machine level can be roughly divided into three steps.
- the operator of the machine receives a certain amount of money at the beginning of his shift, and acknowledges receipt of it.
- the amount of money received is fed to the machine and sorted, for example, into the categories mentioned. After the end of the shift, the operator transfers the sorted amounts of money together with a printout that records all relevant processes to an institution that continues to process the money.
- the sorting machine is provided with a printing device, by means of which, among other things, a so-called shift log can be printed out.
- a printing device by means of which, among other things, a so-called shift log can be printed out.
- the sums of the banknotes stored in the intended categories are registered.
- the sum of all partial quantities in the categories must correspond to the volume of money supplied to the machine and acknowledged by the operator.
- this simple form of checking is no longer possible in the case of destroyed notes, so that a different form of security checking is necessary in particular with regard to these notes in order to be protected against possible manipulation.
- the object of the invention is therefore to ensure the highest possible protection against manipulation when using an automatic banknote sorting machine with an integrated switching device.
- the essence of the invention is to use the cryptographic process to calculate a value from the log data to be protected, which value is printed out one or more times on the log extract. This calculation can only be carried out by authorized bodies who are aware of the cryptographic process or of those involved in this process Have secrets. Every falsification, insertion or removal of log data leads to a different authenticity value, which can be easily determined during a check.
- an authenticity code is calculated to secure the protocol data and, to check the authenticity of the protocol, this code is recalculated using the same method and checked for identity with the previously determined one.
- time-variable log data are included in the calculation of the authenticity marking in order to be able to clearly differentiate logs with the same or similar sorting results.
- the authentication code is calculated in each case before a log printout in a corresponding security module of the sorting device.
- one or more protocols are provided with the associated authenticity codes for each shift or processing period can also be saved in the machine. Saved authenticity codes can be checked again the following day or later for control purposes.
- FIG. 1 shows in a highly schematic form a possible configuration of a sorting device with the essential functional elements.
- the banknotes are separated from an input container 6, passed through a sensor path 5 and fed to different output containers 8, 9 or 10 depending on the sensor result.
- the banknotes destroyed by a shredder device 7 are collected in the container 8.
- In the container 9 still usable notes for the further circulation and in the container 10 so-called manual rework notes can be collected.
- the operator of the machine has to check the latter notes carefully, for example because the notes are suspected of being counterfeit or not identifiable.
- the dialogue with the machine is possible via a console 4.
- the sorting machine is equipped with a printer 3 for printing out logs 2 about the money processing.
- FIG. 2 An example of such a protocol is shown in FIG. 2.
- different types of protocols can be printed, but this will not be dealt with in more detail here.
- FIG. 2 shows a so-called shift protocol, which an operator can print out after a certain volume of money has been processed.
- This protocol together with the processed banknotes and sorted in the categories mentioned, is handed over to an institution further processing the money.
- the machine number or an operator ID number can be recorded on the log.
- the sum of the banknotes or the destroyed notes (abbreviated as Shr notes) stored in the different categories (fitable notes for short U notes and manual reworking notes for short called HN notes) are also printed out on the log.
- the information mentioned represents only a selection of the possible protocol data.
- an authenticity marking 15 is now provided on the protocol, which is calculated from all or from a specific selection of protocol data via a cryptographic process. It is preferable to include in the process those data that are to be protected against falsification. In any case, the authenticity marking has a clear connection to the data involved. Each change, addition or deletion of data leads to a different authenticity marking, with which any manipulation of the log data is immediately detected.
- the authenticity marking can be calculated in a security module 12 of the control and computing unit 11 of the sorting device.
- This module contains the algorithm or the secret key for calculating the identification. The module must therefore be protected against unauthorized access. Variables that are variable in time should be included in the calculation of the authenticity marking, for example the date or time or other values that fulfill this purpose, so that each protocol is unique.
- the authenticity marking can be printed out several times on the log, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, before and after the actual log data.
- the authenticity of the protocol can be checked with any device that has the security module 12 implemented in the sorting machine and is loaded with the appropriate algorithm or key.
- the data included in the calculation of the authenticity marking such as the sums of the U-BN, the HN-BN, and the Shr-BN, are entered manually via a keyboard of the device. From this, the security module calculates the authenticity identification and shows it on a display, so that the operator can compare the indicated identification with the identification printed on the log. If there is an identity, it is ensured that the checked log data is not corrupt.
- the method according to the invention achieves a high degree of security with regard to the correct processing of banknotes in automatic banknote sorting systems.
- the test can also be carried out on the shredder machine itself after an operating mode provided for this purpose has been selected via the operator console 4.
- the result is displayed on the operator panel screen.
- the representation of a separate verification device which has at least the security module 12 and an operating console 4, has been omitted.
- the authenticity marking of the log data can also be checked with the aid of a terminal, which is connected to the sorting machine via the interface 13 1 is connected.
- the necessary data are transmitted to the terminal, from which the authenticity code, as described above, is calculated in a corresponding security module of the terminal.
- the authenticity markings of several logs can be stored, for example, under the log number or other suitable data in a memory of the sorting machine, so that old logs can still be checked at a later time.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein verfahren zur Überprüfung der ordnungsgemäßen Bearbeitung von Banknoten in automatischen Banknoten-Sortieranlagen, die bestimmte Geldmengen nach vorgebbaren Kriterien in unterschiedliche Kategorien sortiert, bei der Teilmengen gegebenenfalls zerstört werden und bei der nach der Bearbeitung einer vorgebbaren Geldmenge oder nach einer bestimmten Zeiteinheit ein Protokoll erstellt wird, in dem unter anderem Informationen über die bearbeiteten Banknoten registriert sind.The invention relates to a method for checking the correct processing of banknotes in automatic banknote sorting systems, which sorts certain amounts of money according to predefinable criteria into different categories, in which partial quantities are possibly destroyed and in which after the processing of a predefinable amount of money or after a certain unit of time Protocol is created in which, among other things, information about the processed banknotes is registered.
Zur Sortierung von Banknoten werden seit längerem Automaten eingesetzt, die automatisch oder auch manuell zugeführte Banknoten vereinzeln, der Reihe nach durch ein Sensorsystem führen und je nach Aufgabenstellung und Sensorergebnis nach vorgebbaren Kriterien in unterschiedliche Kategorien sortieren.For some time now, banknotes have been used for sorting banknotes, which automatically or manually feed banknotes, pass them in sequence through a sensor system and, depending on the task and sensor result, sort them into different categories according to predefined criteria.
Ein solcher Automat ist beispielsweise aus der DE-PS 27 60 269 bekannt. Eine wesentliche Aufgabe dieses bekannten Sortierautomaten besteht darin, aus dem Geldumlauf zurückfließende Banknoten in für den weiteren Umlauf brauchbare und nicht brauchbare Banknoten zu sortieren. In eine dritte Kategorie werden Banknoten sortiert, die beispielsweise falschgeldverdächtig, nicht identifizierbar oder aus anderen Gründen nicht sortierbar sind. Die für den weiteren Umlauf als nicht brauchbar identifizierten Noten müssen zuverlässig zerstört werden, was beispielsweise dadurch geschehen kann, daß die Noten einen in der Sortiermaschine integrierten Schredderbaustein passieren, der jede Note in so kleine Schnipsel zerteilt, daß daraus eine Wiederherstellung von Noten unmöglich ist.Such a machine is known for example from DE-PS 27 60 269. An essential task of this known sorting machine is to sort banknotes flowing back from the circulation of money into banknotes which are usable and not usable for the further circulation. Banknotes are sorted into a third category, which are suspect of counterfeit money, cannot be identified or cannot be sorted for other reasons. The notes identified as unusable for the further circulation must be reliably destroyed, which can happen, for example, by the notes passing through a shredder module integrated in the sorting machine, which cuts each note into small snippets that make it impossible to restore notes.
Die Geldbearbeitung auf der Ebene der Sortiermaschine läßt sich grob in drei Schritte untergliedern. Der Bediener der Maschine erhält zu Beginn seiner Schicht ein bestimmtes Geldvolumen, dessen Erhalt er quittiert.Money processing at the sorting machine level can be roughly divided into three steps. The operator of the machine receives a certain amount of money at the beginning of his shift, and acknowledges receipt of it.
Die erhaltene Geldmenge wird der Maschine zugeführt und beispielsweise in die genannten Kategorien sortiert. Nach Beendigung der Schicht übergibt der Bediener die sortierten Geldmengen zusammen mit einem alle relevanten Vorgänge protokollierenden Ausdruck einer die Geldbearbeitung weiterführenden Institution.The amount of money received is fed to the machine and sorted, for example, into the categories mentioned. After the end of the shift, the operator transfers the sorted amounts of money together with a printout that records all relevant processes to an institution that continues to process the money.
Wie in der DE-OS 27 60 269 ausführlich beschrieben, ist die Sortiermaschine mit einer Druckeinrichtung versehen, über die unter anderem auch ein sogenanntes Schichtprotokoll ausgedruckt werden kann. In diesem Protokoll sind neben anderen Daten die Summen der in den vorgesehenen Kategorien abgelegten Banknoten registriert. Die Summe über alle Teilmengen in den Kategorien muß dem der Maschine zugeführten und vom Bediener quittierten Geldvolumen entsprechen. Anhand der Protokolldaten ist grundsätzlich eine Überprüfung der einzelnen Geldmengen durch beispielsweise nochmaliges Nachzählen möglich, so daß keine Banknote unerkannt verschwinden kann. Diese einfache Form der Überprüfung ist allerdings bei zerstörten Noten nicht mehr möglich, so daß besonders bezüglich dieser Noten eine andere Form der Sicherheitsüberprüfung notwendig ist, um gegen mögliche Manipulationen geschützt zu sein.As described in DE-OS 27 60 269 in detail, the sorting machine is provided with a printing device, by means of which, among other things, a so-called shift log can be printed out. In this protocol, among other data, the sums of the banknotes stored in the intended categories are registered. The sum of all partial quantities in the categories must correspond to the volume of money supplied to the machine and acknowledged by the operator. On the basis of the log data, it is fundamentally possible to check the individual amounts of money by counting them again, for example, so that no banknote can disappear undetected. However, this simple form of checking is no longer possible in the case of destroyed notes, so that a different form of security checking is necessary in particular with regard to these notes in order to be protected against possible manipulation.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht deshalb darin, beim Einsatz einer automatischen Banknotensortiermaschine mit integrierter Schalteinrichtung einen höchstmöglichen Schutz gegen Manipulation zu gewährleisten.The object of the invention is therefore to ensure the highest possible protection against manipulation when using an automatic banknote sorting machine with an integrated switching device.
Das Wesentliche der Erfindung besteht darin, aus den zu schützenden Protokolldaten unter Verwendung eines kryptografischen Prozesses einen Wert zu errechnen, der auf dem Protokollauszug ein- oder auch mehrfach ausgedruckt wird. Diese Berechnung kann nur von autorisierten Stellen durchgeführt werden, die Kenntnis von dem kryptografischen Prozeß bzw. von den in diesen Prozeß einbezogenen Geheimnissen haben. Jede Verfälschung, Einfügung oder Entfernung von Protokolldaten führt zu einem anderen Echtheitswert, was bei einer Überprüfung auf einfache Weise feststellbar ist.The essence of the invention is to use the cryptographic process to calculate a value from the log data to be protected, which value is printed out one or more times on the log extract. This calculation can only be carried out by authorized bodies who are aware of the cryptographic process or of those involved in this process Have secrets. Every falsification, insertion or removal of log data leads to a different authenticity value, which can be easily determined during a check.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung wird zur Absicherung der Protokolldaten ein Echtheitscode berechnet und zur Überprüfung der Echtheit des Protokolls dieser Code nach dem gleichen Verfahren erneut berechnet und mit dem früher ermittelten auf Identität geprüft.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, an authenticity code is calculated to secure the protocol data and, to check the authenticity of the protocol, this code is recalculated using the same method and checked for identity with the previously determined one.
Die Bildung von sogenannten Authentisierungscodes ist in der Nachrichtenfernübertragung seit längerem bekannt. Die Anwendung dieses an sich bekannten Verfahrens bietet aber bei der Absicherung von Protokolldaten einer Banknotensortiervorrichtung eine technisch einfach zu realisierende Möglichkeit, gerade auch die Daten von zerstörten Noten, deren korrekte Bearbeitung nicht so ohne weiteres nachprüfbar ist, sehr wirkungsvoll gegen Manipulationen zu schützen. Selbstverständlich kann das Verfahren auch bei Sortiervorrichtungen ohne Schredderfunktion wirkungsvoll eingesetzt werden, um die Authentizität der erstellten Protokolle zu sichern.The formation of so-called authentication codes has long been known in long-distance communication. However, the use of this method, which is known per se, offers a technically easy to implement option for securing log data of a banknote sorting device, especially the data of destroyed banknotes, the correct processing of which cannot easily be verified, is very effectively protected against manipulation. Of course, the method can also be used effectively in sorting devices without a shredder function in order to ensure the authenticity of the protocols created.
Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung werden zeitvariable Protokolldaten in die Berechnung der Echtheitskennzeichnung einbezogen, um Protokolle mit gleichen oder ähnlichen Sortierergebnissen eindeutig voneinander unterscheiden zu können.According to a development of the invention, time-variable log data are included in the calculation of the authenticity marking in order to be able to clearly differentiate logs with the same or similar sorting results.
Die Berechnung des Authentisierungscodes wird jeweils vor einem Protokollausdruck in einem entsprechenden Sicherheitsmodul der Sortiervorrichtung durchgeführt. Je nach den vereinbarten organisatorischen Richtlinien werden pro Schicht oder Bearbeitungszeitraum ein oder mehrere Protokolle mit den zugehörigen Echtheitscodes versehen, die auch in der Maschine gespeichert werden können. Gespeicherte Echtheitscodes können am Folgetag oder auch später zu Kontrollzwecken nochmals überprüft werden.The authentication code is calculated in each case before a log printout in a corresponding security module of the sorting device. Depending on the agreed organizational guidelines, one or more protocols are provided with the associated authenticity codes for each shift or processing period can also be saved in the machine. Saved authenticity codes can be checked again the following day or later for control purposes.

Die Fig. 1 zeigt in stark schematisierter Form eine mögliche Konfiguration einer Sortiervorrichtung mit den wesentlichen Funktionselementen.1 shows in a highly schematic form a possible configuration of a sorting device with the essential functional elements.
Die Banknoten werden aus einem Eingangsbehälter 6 vereinzelt, durch eine Sensorstrecke 5 geführt und abhängig vom Sensorergebnis unterschiedlichen Ausgangsbehältern 8, 9 oder 10 zugeführt. Im Behälter 8 werden die durch eine Shreddereinrichtung 7 zerstörten Banknoten gesammelt. Im Behälter 9 können für den weiteren Umlauf noch brauchbare Noten und im Behälter 10 sogenannte Handnacharbeitsnoten gesammelt werden. Letztere Noten sind vom Bediener der Maschine nochmals genau zu prüfen, da es sich beispielsweise um falschgeldverdächtige oder nicht identifizierbare Noten handelt. Über eine Konsole 4 ist der Dialog mit der Maschine möglich. Zum Ausdruck von Protokollen 2 über die Geldbearbeitung ist die Sortiermaschine mit einem Drucker 3 ausgerüstet.The banknotes are separated from an input container 6, passed through a sensor path 5 and fed to
Ein Beispiel eines solchen Protokolls ist in der Fig. 2 gezeigt. Je nach den organisatorischen Vorgaben können verschiedene Arten von Protokollen ausgedruckt werden, worauf hier aber nicht näher eingegangen werden soll.An example of such a protocol is shown in FIG. 2. Depending on the organizational requirements, different types of protocols can be printed, but this will not be dealt with in more detail here.
Die Fig. 2 zeigt ein sogenanntes Schichtprotokoll, das ein Bediener nach der Abarbeitung eines bestimmten Geldvolumens ausdrucken läßt. Dieses Protokoll wird gemeinsam mit den bearbeiteten und in den genannten Kategorien sortierten Banknoten einer das Geld weiter bearbeitenden Institution übergeben.FIG. 2 shows a so-called shift protocol, which an operator can print out after a certain volume of money has been processed. This protocol, together with the processed banknotes and sorted in the categories mentioned, is handed over to an institution further processing the money.
Neben einer Datum- und Zeitangabe kann auf dem Protokoll die Maschinen-Nummer bzw. auch eine Ident-Nummer des Bedieners aufgezeichnet sein. Auf dem Protokoll sind außerdem die Summen der in den unterschiedlichen Kategorien (umlauffähige Noten kurz U-Noten genannt und Handnacharbeitsnoten kurz HN-Noten genannt) abgelegten Banknoten bzw. der zerstörten Noten (kurz Shr-Noten genannt) ausgedruckt. Die genannten Informationen stellen nur eine Auswahl der möglichen Protokolldaten dar. Zusätzlich zu den genannten Informationen ist nun gemäß der Erfindung auf dem Protokoll eine Echtheitskennzeichnung 15 vorgesehen, die aus allen oder aus einer bestimmten Auswahl von Protokolldaten über einen kryptografischen Prozeß errechnet wird. Vorzugsweise wird man diejenigen Daten, die gegen Verfälschung gesichert werden sollen, in den Prozeß einbeziehen. In jedem Fall steht die Echtheitskennzeichnung in einem eindeutigen Zusammenhang zu den einbezogenen Daten. Jede Veränderung, Ergänzung oder Streichung von Daten führt zu einer anderen Echtheitskennzeichnung, womit jede Manipulation an den Protokolldaten sofort aufgedeckt wird.In addition to a date and time, the machine number or an operator ID number can be recorded on the log. The sum of the banknotes or the destroyed notes (abbreviated as Shr notes) stored in the different categories (fitable notes for short U notes and manual reworking notes for short called HN notes) are also printed out on the log. The information mentioned represents only a selection of the possible protocol data. In addition to the information mentioned, according to the invention, an authenticity marking 15 is now provided on the protocol, which is calculated from all or from a specific selection of protocol data via a cryptographic process. It is preferable to include in the process those data that are to be protected against falsification. In any case, the authenticity marking has a clear connection to the data involved. Each change, addition or deletion of data leads to a different authenticity marking, with which any manipulation of the log data is immediately detected.
Die Echtheitskennzeichnung kann in einem Sicherheitsmodul 12 der Steuer- und Recheneinheit 11 der Sortiervorrichtung berechnet werden. In diesem Modul befinden sich der Algorithmus bzw. die geheimen Schlüssel zur Berechnung der Kennzeichnung. Das Modul ist daher entsprechend gegen den nicht autorisierten Zugriff zu schützen. In die Berechnung der Echtheitskennzeichnung sollten zeitvariable Größen einbezogen werden, wie beispielsweise das Datum oder die Uhrzeit oder auch andere diesen Zweck erfüllende Werte, so daß jedes Protokoll ein Unikat darstellt. Die Echtheitskennzeichnung kann auf dem Protokoll mehrfach ausgedruckt werden, beispielsweise, wie in der Fig. 2 gezeigt, vor und nach den eigentlichen Protokolldaten.The authenticity marking can be calculated in a
Die Prüfung der Echtheit des Protokolls kann mit jedem Gerät durchgeführt werden, das über das in der Sortiermaschine implementierte Sicherheitsmodul 12 verfügt und mit dem entsprechenden Algorithmus bzw. Schlüssel geladen ist. Über eine Tastatur des Gerätes werden die in die Berechnung der Echtheitskennzeichnung einbezogenen Daten, wie beispielsweise die Summen der U-BN, der HN-BN, der Shr-BN manuell eingegeben. Das Sicherheitsmodul errechnet daraus die Echtheitskennzeichnung und zeigt diese auf einem Display an, so daß der Bediener die angezeigte Kennzeichnung mit der auf dem Protokoll ausgedruckten Kennzeichnung vergleichen kann. Bei Identität ist sichergestellt, daß die überprüften Protokolldaten unverfälscht sind. Trotz der Einfachheit sowohl der Erstellung der Echtheitskennzeichnung als auch der Überprüfung derselben wird mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren ein hohes Maß an Sicherheit erreicht, was die ordnungsgemäße Bearbeitung von Banknoten in automatischen Banknotensortieranlagen betrifft. Die Prüfung kann auch an der Schreddermaschine selbst durchgeführt werden, nachdem eine dafür vorgesehene Betriebsart über die Bedienerkonsole 4 angewählt wurde. Das Ergebnis wird auf dem Bildschirm der Bedienerkonsole angezeigt. Auf die Darstellung eines gesonderten Verifizierungsgerätes, das wenigstens das Sicherheitsmodul 12 und eine Bedienkonsole 4 aufweist, wurde der Klarheit wegen verzichtet.The authenticity of the protocol can be checked with any device that has the
Die Prüfung der Echtheitskennzeichnung der Protokolldaten kann auch mit Hilfe eines Terminals durchgeführt werden, das über die Schnittstelle 13 mit der Sortiermaschine 1 verbunden ist. Die notwendigen Daten werden dem Terminal übermittelt, woraus in einem entsprechenden Sicherheitsmodul des Terminals der Echtheitscode, wie oben geschildert, errechnet wird.The authenticity marking of the log data can also be checked with the aid of a terminal, which is connected to the sorting machine via the
Die Echtheitskennzeichnungen mehrerer Protokolle können beispielsweise unter der Protokollnummer oder auch anderer geeigneter Daten in einem Speicher der Sortiermaschine abgelegt werden, so daß auch zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt noch Überprüfungen alter Protokolle möglich sind.The authenticity markings of several logs can be stored, for example, under the log number or other suitable data in a memory of the sorting machine, so that old logs can still be checked at a later time.
