Description

Digital system having rights identification information recorded and its providing method {Digital system having rights identification information, application system, and service system}

The present invention relates to a digital system in which rights holder identification information is recorded and a service system capable of providing a service to a digital system in which the rights holder identification information is recorded, and more particularly, a right holder in which a predetermined digital system can identify an owner. By storing the identification information, the present invention relates to a system and a method of providing the same, which allows a proper authentication using the owner identification information. In addition, the present invention relates to a system and a method for providing the same, which individually specify a general-purpose device by assigning owner identification information for identifying an owner to a digital system having a general-purpose form.

Many digital systems (e.g., PCs, tablets, navigation, music players, cameras, mobile phones, automotive digital systems, IPTV, digital TVs, etc.) are widely sold and used due to the development of information and communication technologies.

In particular, as IT technologies become smaller and convergence, digital systems do not only perform any one function but also have various functions and are manufactured and distributed so that users can easily carry it. For example, in the case of a mobile communication terminal (e.g., a smart phone, etc.), various functions such as a camera, an information storage device, a banking (payment, transfer, etc.) function are performed in addition to the original communication function. At the same time, the digital system is miniaturized to a size enough for the user to carry through by performing all the combined functions while integrating the elements.

Digital systems are not only a convenience for users but also an important means of influencing the lives of users as they converge and miniaturize various functions.

Digital systems are devices that have a profound effect on the lives of users, but in principle they are implemented in a generic way for users (that is, they are implemented so that they can be used by everyone). In other words, since the digital system is implemented so that it can be used by an unspecified number of users, there is a possibility of disputes related to the legitimate ownership, and the illegal user stealing or stealing the digital system can not use the digital system illegally even though the rightful owner does not want it. .

There is no real solution to disputes related to legitimate ownership, but there are some ways to prevent unauthorized authentication or use by illegally acquired digital systems. In order to prevent unauthorized use, a method has been used in which the digital system can be used only after being authenticated through preset authentication information. That is, the person who owns specific information (authentication information) (the person who owns it) is regarded as a legitimate user. For example, user authentication using login information (ID, Password, etc.), password, pattern information, or the like is one such example. This information-based authentication method has a problem in that it cannot perform any function as an authentication function when the information is known or leaked to others.

Meanwhile, as one of some conventional authentication methods, a device authentication method using device identification information has been known. Such a device authentication method may be defined as a concept of providing a service only to a specific device regardless of who the user requests for the service. For example, the service provider stores device identification information that is permitted to provide a service, and the device may be authenticated by checking whether the identification information of the device (eg, a digital system) requesting the service corresponds to the previously stored device identification information. However, even in the case of using such device identification information, the device using the service is authenticated, and the owner (e.g., owner) of the device is not authenticated. For example, if the specific device identification information is registered on the service providing side, the service can be provided only through the device (digital system) corresponding to the specific device identification information. However, it is impossible to confirm or authenticate the user who is provided with the service.

Accordingly, it may be necessary to provide a concept of an authentication scheme that permits services only to a digital system in which the rights of the requestor (for example, ownership, usage right, etc.) requesting the service are recognized according to diversification of service types and service sector needs. For example, a service provider providing a specific service can establish a service policy to provide a predetermined service only to a device (digital system) recognized as a user name of the account. For example, a particular account may be the account of user 1. If a predetermined device requests a service through the account, it may be necessary to allow the service only when the device is the device of the user 1.

Alternatively, even in the case of using the digital system itself as well as the service in the server-client format, it can be clearly recorded and maintained who the owner of the digital system is, and this information can be easily modulated or counterfeited If not, various functions can be realized. Even if the digital system is stolen, illegal use is not easy, so that the risk of the theft can be reduced. Also, regardless of occupancy, it is possible to know who is the rightful owner of the digital system, thereby eliminating the dispute related to ownership.

As a result, by recording the identification information of the owner (e.g., owner) of the digital system in advance in the digital system and preventing the unauthorized user from easily modifying the identification information, the owner corresponding to the owner identification information recorded in the digital system. If only the digital system becomes available, the risk of fraud or theft can be significantly lowered. In addition, by recording the identification information of the owner (eg, owner) of the digital system in advance in the digital system, disputes related to ownership of the digital system can be easily solved.

The technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is to provide a system and a method for allowing only the rights holder to normally use the digital system by recording identification information of the rights holder of the digital system in advance in the digital system.

In addition, the present invention provides a system and a method implemented so that an unauthorized user cannot easily tamper with the owner identification information recorded in the digital system.

In addition, the present invention provides a system and method for reducing the willingness to steal the digital system by making it expensive to physically separate or replace the hardware on which the rights holder identification information is recorded, or replacing the hardware in the digital system. To provide.

In addition, the present invention provides a system and a method for preventing the occurrence of ownership dispute or reducing the risk of theft caused by the implementation of the digital system for anyone to use.

In addition, when the ownership of the digital system must be transferred to a third party in a legitimate manner, such as when it is used or used, the owner's identification information is not easily recorded on the digital system, but the ownership can be easily transferred. It is to provide a system and a method for enabling the same.

1 is a diagram illustrating a schematic system configuration for implementing a digital system in which rights holder identification information is recorded according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, a digital system 100 in which owner identification information for recording a technical idea according to an embodiment of the present invention is recorded may be provided.

The digital system 100 may transmit and receive necessary data through a wired or wireless communication with a predetermined service system 300 that can provide a service to the digital system 100.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the digital system 100 may communicate with a predetermined pair device 200 to implement the technical idea of the present invention.

The digital system 100 may be defined to include all types of data processing devices that process digital data to perform a function originally defined in the digital system 100 or to generate a result required by a user. . The digital system 100 may be, for example, a computer (desktop, laptop, tablet PC, etc.), mobile phone, MP3, navigation, set-top box, vehicle-mounted data processing system, digital TV with data processing device, digital It can be implemented in various systems such as wired and wireless telephones and digital devices for home automation. In addition, the digital system 100 may be a system equipped with a data processing apparatus, but may also be a system in which a data processing apparatus is newly installed in an existing apparatus. For example, even when the data processing device is mounted on a device that is not equipped with a data processing device such as a bicycle or a motorcycle, the technical idea of the present invention may be implemented as it is. Hereinafter, the digital system 100 will be described mainly as a case of a mobile phone, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.

The service system 300 may refer to any type of data processing apparatus that provides a predetermined service to the digital system 100. For example, the service system 300 determines whether to provide a corresponding function or resource for a function or resource requested by the digital system 100 through a wired or wireless network, and determines the function or resource according to a determination result. It may be any type of data processing device transmitting to the digital system 100 and / or other systems.

In addition, the service system 300 to provide a service to the digital system 100, not only transmits a response and / or resources to the digital system 100, but also requests of the digital system 100 It may include a procedure for transmitting and receiving predetermined information with another system to perform the.

For example, a predetermined service provided by the service system 300 to the digital system 100 may include a predetermined web provided by the service system 300 and / or the service system 300. Services to log in to a page or application, services to enable payment through the digital system 100, or move the digital system 100 to a predetermined network (eg, 3G network, 4G network, etc.) The technical expert of the present invention can easily deduce that it can vary greatly depending on the implementation example, such as a network access service for connecting to a communication network).

The pair device 200 may be a predetermined device preset to correspond to the digital system 100. As described below, the digital system 100 should be paired with the pairing device 200, that is, only when communication is possible in a predetermined manner, so that the rights holder identification information setting procedure according to the technical idea of the present invention can be performed. Can be.

The path for the legitimate owner to acquire the pair device 200 may vary. For example, when purchasing the digital system 100 for the first time, the pair device 200 that is paired with the digital system 100 in advance may be paid to the rightful owner. In this case, the pair device 200 may be manufactured in advance by a manufacturer of the digital system 100 and distributed to a company that distributes the digital system 100. Alternatively, the distributor may distribute or the first user may provide the pair device 200.

Alternatively, the pair device 200 may not be specified when the digital system 100 is first purchased by a predetermined user. In this case, the pair device 200 may take a certain period of time (eg, several days or more) to be identified as that of the user. For example, when the pair device 200 is implemented by a predetermined financial transaction means (for example, a credit card or ID card), issuance of the pair device 200 may take a certain period of time, or the pair device ( Even if you have 200), you may need to connect to the system and perform pairing setup procedure afterwards. In addition, the distributor of the digital system 100 may not be able to issue directly. In this case, the distributor may allow the user to input identification information of the user to the digital system 100 through a temporary pair device that temporarily pairs with the digital system 100.

Or when the user is authenticated through a predetermined external system (eg, a system of an authorized institution, a mobile carrier system, a manufacturer system, a clouding system, etc.), the digital system 100 sets rights holder identification information from the external system. Receiving a predetermined signal indicating that the procedure can be performed, and if such a signal is received, the owner identification information setting procedure may be performed even if the pair device 200 does not exist. The external system may be predetermined for each of the digital systems 100. For example, when the digital system 100 is a digital device using a mobile communication network such as a mobile phone or a tablet PC, the digital system 100 has information on the owner of the digital system 100 and provides a mobile communication service to the digital system 100. The providing mobile communication company system may be the external system. Alternatively, it may be a system operated by a manufacturer who wishes to provide various services in relation to the digital system 100 or by various types of organizations that want to perform a clouding function.

Meanwhile, according to an embodiment, even when there is a pair device 200 corresponding to the digital system 100, when a predetermined authentication procedure is performed through the external system, the digital system 100 and the pair are paired. Even if the device 200 is not paired, an owner identification information setting procedure may be performed. That is, the owner identification information setting procedure of the digital system 100 may be a case where the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 are paired or when a predetermined authentication procedure is performed through the external system. .

Alternatively, when the rights holder identification information is recorded in the digital system 100 for the first time, the digital system 100 may be implemented such that the rights holder identification information may be set even if the pairing apparatus 200 is not paired. When the owner identification information is recorded in the digital system 100 for the first time, it is likely that the right holder is usually a legitimate owner.

In addition, a legitimate right holder may select the pair device 200 selectively in a situation in which the pair device 200 corresponding to the digital system 100 is not specified or in a specified situation, and thus the digital system 100 may be selected. It can also be paired with. In this case, there may be a case where at least one device that can be paired with the digital system 100 already exists in the user. For example, when the pair device 200 corresponding to the digital system 100 is not specified, the pair device 200 may be specified through predetermined software installed in the digital system 100 without a separate authentication procedure. The digital system 100 may be implemented. For example, this procedure may be performed by the user when purchasing the digital system 100. Subsequently, even when there is a pair device 200 corresponding to the digital system 100, the user may wish to change the pair device forming a pair with the digital system 100 if desired. In this case, the digital system 100 may allow the user to set a new pair device only when paired with the current pair device 200.

Setting of the pair device 200 allows a user to directly input identification information of the pair device 200 through a predetermined UI provided by the digital system 100, or the digital system 100 allows the digital system ( It may be performed by recognizing a predetermined device that can be recognized by 100 and allowing the user to confirm whether to set the recognized device as the pair device 200.

When the pair device 200 paired with the digital system 100 is set, not at the time of initial purchase or use of the digital system 100, for example, a predetermined user purchases or justifies the digital system 100. After the transfer from the right holder, a pair of devices 200 of the digital system 100 that are already held and carry a predetermined device (e.g., a smart card device capable of authenticating a person such as a credit card or an electronic resident's card). This may be the case to use. Of course, at this time, the device is preferably a device that includes a predetermined communication means to be paired with the pair device 200. Alternatively, the user may request the issuer of the device to exchange the device without the pairing function with the device having the pairing function.

Only when pairing with the pairing device 200 may be implemented to newly record or change the owner identification information according to the technical idea of the present invention. Alternatively, the rights holder identification information setting procedure may be performed only through an authentication process through a predetermined external system. The authentication procedure through the external system may vary. For example, a procedure for submitting a predetermined document or data that can recognize and confirm a user to the external system may be performed, and various methods (e.g., an address or social security number, etc.) currently used to authenticate a user online. Confirmation), authentication through a certificate, or a method of authenticating a user by confirming predetermined information through a call with a user on a wired line, various methods such as a clouding system may be used.

If the right holder identification information of the digital system 100 is easily changed, it is placed in the technical idea of the present invention, so that the right owner identification information is changed by an enhanced method such as a pairing configuration, while maintaining the technical idea of the present invention as it is. Variation can be implemented efficiently. For example, in a digital system according to the spirit of the present invention, owner identification information may be input, and the owner identification information may not be easily changed or removed. However, when the digital system needs to be transferred to another person through a normal transaction or the like, it is necessary to change the owner identification information. At this time, it may be implemented to confirm that the party is the right holder by the pairing device 200 and the like, transfer of rights, that is, change of owner identification information.

According to the embodiment, the digital system 100 may be designed to be normally operated only when the digital device 100 is paired with the pair device 200 so that at least some components or functions of the digital system 100 are normally operated. The digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may communicate with each other through, for example, a predetermined RF communication. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may perform communication through near field communication (NFC) or other RF communication protocol. In order for the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 to be paired, the communication protocol may be selected so that the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 communicate only when they exist within a predetermined distance. have. In general, the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may be paired through a predetermined communication protocol to be paired only when they are owned by the same person. Accordingly, the pairing of the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may mean that a person using or occupying the digital system 100 also occupies the pair device 200. have.

Accordingly, the pairing of the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may mean that at least a person currently using the digital system 100 occupies the pair device 200. Therefore, the person currently using the digital system 100 in a pairing state may mean that the probability of being the owner of the digital system 100 is very high.

In order for the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 to be paired, the digital system 100 may further include a predetermined communication means (not shown) capable of communicating with the pair device 200. Of course it can. In addition, the communication means (not shown) may be configured such that the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 can communicate with each other, for example, in a situation owned by the same person. For example, the communication means (not shown) may be implemented in a configuration capable of performing communication with the pair device 200 at a predetermined distance (for example, 10 cm, several m, etc.).

Meanwhile, communication between the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may be performed in various ways. It is well known that, in accordance with this approach, the distance and / or environment in which pairing is possible may vary. Communication between the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may be, for example, various embodiments, such as Bluetooth, NFC, infrared communication, optical communication. In addition, a communication device for such communication may be provided in the digital system 100 and the pair device 200, respectively.

According to an embodiment, the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may perform RF communication. For example, the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may perform communication using a wireless standard protocol such as Bluetooth, Zigbee, or the like. Of course, when performing Bluetooth communication, the pair device 200 may also have its own power supply or may be a system that can receive power from the outside. On the other hand, in the case of Zigbee communication, it may be advantageous that communication can be performed with low power as compared with Bluetooth. In addition to the implementation, the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may perform various short range wireless communication (eg, IrDA, UWB, etc.), and the digital system 100 and The pair device 200 may be provided with a predetermined configuration for the environment required for the corresponding wireless communication.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pair device 200 may be a system driven by an RF signal output from the digital system 100 without its own power supply. For example, the pair device 200 may be implemented as an RF tag or an IC chip including the RF tag, or a predetermined smart card (IC card) including the IC chip, or include the RF tag or IC chip. It may be any data processing system. In this case, the digital system 100 may also serve as a reader capable of communicating with the RF tag. In this case, the digital system 100 may output a predetermined RF signal to search the pair device 200 or receive predetermined information stored in the pair device 200. In addition, the communication distance between the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may vary according to the output power of the digital system 100.

According to an embodiment, i.e., according to the manner in which the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 communicate, a user may move within a predetermined distance to pair the digital system 100 and the pair device 200. It may be necessary to locate the digital system 100 and the pair device 200.

The pair device 200 is a financial transaction means (for example, credit card, check card, security card, OTP (One Time Password) device, etc.) for financial transactions, identification card (for example, resident registration card, employee card, e-passport, ID card, etc.) The pair device 200 may also be implemented as a predetermined data processing device.

As described above, when the digital system 100 is paired with the pair device 200, the digital system 100 may be implemented to perform the owner identification information setting procedure, so that the owner identification information of the digital system 100 does not have a right. In addition to being easily recorded or changed by the legitimate right holder (e.g., having only the pair device 200), the right holder can easily enter or record new owner identification information in the digital system 100. It can be implemented to change the owner identification information. Therefore, not only when the digital system 100 is first sold to a user, but also when the digital system 100, which was used by a legitimate owner, is transferred to another person, the digital system 100 is easily connected to the digital system 100. ) Has the effect of continuously recording the current owner's identification information.

Meanwhile, the digital system 100 and / or the pair device 200 may not only be used for an owner's identification information setting procedure but also to perform an alarm function when it is out of an area of pairing to increase its ease of use. can do. By doing so, the digital system 100 and / or the pair device 200 can be prevented from losing.

For example, the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 may generally maintain a state of being paired. The state in which pairing is maintained may be a case where the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 are held by a rightful person, and whether the digital system 100 is being paired with the pair device 200. In order to check the communication with the pair device 200 may be attempted at regular intervals.

In this manner, when the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 are paired, and the digital system 100 determines that the pairing device 200 is not paired, the digital system 100 and The pair device 200 may output a predetermined alarm signal. The alarm signal may be a case of outputting predetermined voice information, for example. Accordingly, the user may give an alarm to the user in a situation in which the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 are not in communication, that is, a situation in which one of them may be lost. In addition, even when an unauthorized user cuts out any one of the digital system 100 and / or the pair device 200 without permission, the user can easily recognize this.

In addition, the alarm signal is set to the audio output of the digital system 100 and / or the pair device 200 (for example, in silent mode, silent mode, or when the audio output size is set to be smaller than a predetermined size). Irrespective of this, the audio output device may be output through a predetermined voice output device (for example, a speaker) or more. The controller 110 of the digital system 100 may control the voice output device for this purpose. Therefore, an unauthorized person who cuts the digital system 100 and / or the pair device 200 attempts to prevent the alarm signal output from the digital system 100 and / or the pair device 200 from being heard by others. In this case, there is an effect to output an alarm signal of a predetermined size or more.

Meanwhile, when such an alarm signal is continuously output, an unauthorized user may attempt to power off the digital system 100 and / or the pair device 200. To this end, the control unit 110 included in the digital system 100 requires input of predetermined authentication information (eg, a password or a secret pattern) even when the power is off, and only when authentication through the authentication information is successful. Power off may also be performed. Such a function has the effect of reducing the risk of unauthorized cutting by an unauthorized user, especially when the battery of the digital system 100 and / or the pair device 200 is implemented to be not detached by a user.

Of course, the alarm signal output function or the power-off function through authentication may be activated by the rightful right holder, so that the rightful owner intentionally consciously has only one of the digital system 100 and / or the pair device 200. If you have a problem can be eliminated.

The digital system 100 may include a control unit 110 and a memory unit 120.

Meanwhile, the digital system 100 may store rights holder identification information in the memory unit 120. The rights holder identification information may mean a person who has a right to own the digital system 100 or a person who has a right to use the digital system 100 properly. In addition, a person having various rights may be an owner according to the legal or factual state of the digital system 100. In the present specification, for convenience of description, the owner will be described as an example of a person having ownership, that is, an owner, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, a digital system 100 provided to an employee at a particular company may have ownership in that particular company, and usage rights may be at the employee. At this time, for the technical idea of the present invention, the owner identification information stored in the digital system 100 may be identification information corresponding to the employee. Alternatively, specific company and employee information may be stored together as identification information. This may occur, in particular, when the service system 300 is a corporate internal network or access is permitted only to individuals belonging to a specific company or organization. As such, it can be easily understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the right holder identification information can be transformed into various forms as necessary, such as ownership and use rights.

On the other hand, the owner identification information may be the name of the owner. However, in addition to the name, any information (eg, social security number, passport number, biometric information (fingerprint, iris, voice information, etc.), nickname, alias, etc., may be used to identify the owner. When the rights holder identification information is biometric information, the digital system 100 may be provided with a predetermined device capable of recognizing the biometric information. In addition, the owner identification information such as a name or an alias does not necessarily need to be unique information for each person. Because the name may have a person of the same name, the purpose and effect to achieve by the technical idea of the present invention is only distinguished who is the right owner of the device and this identification information is authenticated by the service system 300 as an authentication means. This is because it is sufficient if it is used meaningfully.

The digital system 100 according to the spirit of the present invention may not record any rights holder identification information when sold or distributed to a user. In addition, when a specific user has a certain right (ownership) in the digital system 100, the owner identification information may be recorded in the digital system 100 for the first time.

According to the technical idea of the present invention, when the digital system 100 is owned by a specific user, the digital system 100 receives information about the owner of the digital system 100 by recording identification information of the user. Can be written to the hardware. The recorded owner identification information, that is, owner identification information, can be controlled so as not to be deleted or changed by the user application. That is, it may be necessary that only an authorized system (or person) has access to the rights holder identification information, and that only an authorized system (or person) can modify (delete or change) the rights holder identification information.

Control of such access may be performed by the controller 110 of the digital system 100 to be described later. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the controller 110 may allow access of the owner identification information to all applications or processes. On the other hand, modification of the right holder identification information may be set to be impossible. The impossibility of modifying the rights holder identification information may be performed physically or by the control of the controller 110. According to another embodiment, when the new owner identification information is recorded in the memory unit 120, the validity of the subject requesting the recording of the owner identification information (that is, the owner actually owns or uses the digital system 100). The rights holder identification information may be recorded (or modified) only if the rights are authorized).

As such, when the rights holder identification information is recorded in the digital system 100, various functions or services may be implemented using the rights holder identification information.

For example, whenever the digital system 100 performs a specific operation or function, the digital system 100 may output the owner identification information as a voice or display it on a screen. In particular, when outputting by voice, every time a person who steals or illegally uses the digital system 100 uses the digital system 100, legitimate right holder identification information is output by voice, so that the intention of the illegal use or the theft of the theft is used. It can weaken itself. In addition, even when the owner identification information is displayed on the screen, it is possible to weaken the will for fraud or theft itself, and may have an effect of simply resolving ownership disputes due to possession.

Alternatively, when the digital system 100 requests a login, payment, or various web services to a predetermined web server, that is, the service system 300, the service system 300 may provide a service corresponding to the owner identification information. Only requests can be allowed. That is, the service can be granted only to the holder corresponding to the owner identification information. For example, when the rights holder identification information is the identification information of the user 1, the service system 300 may allow login only to the user 1 account through the digital system 100. Alternatively, only one financial transaction of the user may be allowed.

As such, the owner identification information is recorded in the digital system 100, and the owner identification information is not changed or deleted by an unauthorized user, and if the owner identification information is stored in the memory unit 120 of the digital system 100. If not recorded, if at least part of the configuration or function of the digital system 100 does not normally operate, various functions or services can be implemented using rights holder identification information.

In addition, according to the technical concept of the present invention, the memory unit 120 or the hardware itself including the memory unit 120 recorded the owner identification information is prevented from being replaced or separated from the digital system 100 by unauthorized users In the case of high implementation, replacement or separation, the integrity of the rights holder identification information may be further increased. This technical idea may be implemented by implementing the memory unit 120 so as not to be detached from the digital system 100 or by being embedded in predetermined hardware (eg, a CPU or an MPU). In addition, the memory unit 120 or the hardware including the memory unit 120 (for example, CPU or MPU, etc.) is combined with other hardware (for example, the motherboard) to be implemented integrally, the memory unit 120 ) Or only hardware (eg, CPU or MPU) including the memory unit may not be separated or replaced in the digital system 100. Therefore, when a fraudulent user wants to replace the hardware (eg, CPU or MPU, etc.) to remove the owner identification information, other hardware (eg, main) that is integrally implemented with the hardware (eg, CPU or MPU, etc.). Board, etc.), and in this case, the cost of the digital system 100 can be substantially reduced, thereby weakening the willingness to steal or steal the digital system 100. .

Meanwhile, a plurality of memory devices may exist in the digital system 100. In particular, the memory device storing the owner identification information may be the memory unit 120. For example, the digital system 100 may include a plurality of memory devices. Examples of the plurality of memory devices may include a secure digital (SD) card, a mini SD card, a micro SD card, a solid state drive (SSD), Hard disk drives (RAM), RAM, ROM, and the like may be various memories embedded in each of the hardware devices (eg, CPU, graphics device, network device, communication chip, etc.) included in the digital system 100. The type of hardware devices included in the digital system 100 may vary depending on the type of the digital system 100.

The rights holder identification information may be stored in the memory unit 120 of the plurality of memory devices as described above, and the memory unit 130 may be implemented as an internal memory. That is, it may be implemented as an internal memory mounted in the digital system 100. Being mounted inside the digital system 100 means that the owner or a non-owner cannot perform the excessive work such as being unable to detach the internal memory or dismantling the digital system 100 in order to detach the internal memory. It may mean that it should be. That is, when the digital system 100 is manufactured, sold or distributed, it may mean that the internal memory is not implemented to be removed or detached in a manner that is allowed or intended for the general user. For example, when a predetermined open part (eg, a cell phone battery cover) that is detachable is included in a housing of the digital system 100, it means that the internal memory is not removable or separated even if the open part is separated. can do. That is, it may mean a memory built in the digital system 100, not a memory implemented to be removable by a general user such as a USIM card of a mobile phone.

The internal memory may be a system memory included in the digital system 100 or an internal memory provided in predetermined hardware (eg, a CPU, etc.) of the digital system 100 itself. As such, the rights holder identification information is stored in a built-in memory of a predetermined hardware, so that an unauthorized user such as a person who acquires or steals the digital system 100 can easily store the built-in memory in which the rights holder identification information is stored. 100) so that it cannot be removed or replaced.

In addition, when the owner identification information is stored in an internal memory provided in predetermined hardware of the digital system 100, an unauthorized user may want to replace the hardware itself. In such a case, it may not be easy to replace the hardware itself, or it may be expensive to replace the hardware.

For example, the first hardware (for example, a CPU, etc.) included in the digital system 100 and including an internal memory in which the rights holder identification information is stored, may be connected to another second hardware (for example, a main board (eg, a main board) of the digital system 100. Substrate) and the like) in an integrated manner, so that when the first hardware is physically separated from the second hardware, at least one of the first hardware and the second hardware is damaged and cannot be replaced. The first hardware and / or the second hardware may not be used. In general, when the digital system 100 includes a main board, various hardware devices included in the digital system 100 may be connected to the main board. In the connection method, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the rights holder identification because the hardware including the memory itself storing the rights holder identification information or the memory storing the rights owner identification information is integrally coupled to the motherboard. It is possible to prevent the memory storing the information from being easily separated from the digital system.

As a result, the built-in memory according to an embodiment of the present invention may mean a memory that is implemented so as not to be quarried in the digital system 100. For example, the memory may include some other hardware (for example, a main board). Etc.), or a case in which the memory is embedded in other hardware (for example, a CPU). In addition, when embedded in other hardware (eg, CPU, etc.), the other hardware may also be implemented integrally coupled to a predetermined hardware (eg, motherboard). The hardware including the memory in which the rights holder identification information is stored may be selected not only a CPU or an MPU, but also any hardware incorporating the memory.

In addition, the rights holder identification information stored in the internal memory may be implemented so that a user cannot delete or change the software. That is, it may be desirable to implement such that the owner identification information may be stored in an area which is inaccessible to a user through a predetermined user application. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the memory in which the rights holder identification information is stored may not be changed once recorded, and may be a memory which is implemented so that only additional information may be written or controlled by the controller 110. . Of course, the memory may be implemented to enable the change or deletion of information. In this case, the rights holder identification information setting procedure such as changing or deleting the rights holder identification information or writing additional information into the memory may be performed only when a predetermined condition (for example, input of a password) is satisfied. The condition may be a case where the digital system 100 is paired with a preset pair device 200.

In addition, even if the replacement does not change the owner identification information according to a predetermined rule, the digital system 100 by preventing the configuration or function of at least part of the digital system 100 to perform a normal operation Only users corresponding to the owner identification information can be used normally. For example, when recording the rights holder identification information, a predetermined hash value or a CRC code that can confirm the validity of the rights holder identification information is recorded together, and an algorithm for calculating the hash value or CRC code is specified in a specific application. If only a specific authority (or system) or a specific certification authority (or system) can be known, there is an effect that even if the unauthorized user arbitrarily replaces the memory unit 120, the valid owner identification information cannot be recorded. Of course, the party owner may record the owner identification information in the memory unit 120 only by using the specific application or the authorized specific organization (or system).

In addition, a predetermined owner identification information setting procedure for recording the owner identification information in the memory unit 120 may be performed only when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The condition may be a condition for determining when the subject or situation for inputting the owner identification information is due to a right holder or at the request of a right holder.

The condition may be a case where authentication through predetermined authentication information (eg, password or secret pattern) succeeds. According to an exemplary embodiment, the predefined pair device 200 and the digital system 100 may be paired.

In the case of using the authentication information, the authentication information may be a case where the rights holder identification information setting procedure is performed on the assumption that only the rightful right holder can be known.

First, when the digital system 100 is first released from the manufacturer, no rights holder identification information may be recorded in the memory unit 120.

As such, when no rights holder identification information is recorded in the memory unit 120, the controller 110 may not use at least some functions of the digital system 100 so that at least part of the digital system 100 may not be used. You can also control or disable the configuration. That is, the digital system 100 may normally be sold to a specific user, and all functions or configurations may be normally activated only when identification information of the specific user is recorded in the memory unit 120. Through this, even if the memory unit 120 is replaced in an illegal manner, illegal use of the digital system 100 may be prevented. Configurations or functions that are controlled, disabled, or deactivated by the controller 110 may vary depending on implementation.

If the specific user who purchased the digital system 100 for the first time wants to record his or her own identification information, the specific user inputs the basic authentication information preset in the digital system 100 and then his own identification information. Can be entered. The basic authentication information may be known only to a seller who sells the digital system 100 or may be distributed so that only a specific user who purchases the first information can be known. For example, when the digital system 100 is purchased, the specific seal is released or the sticker is removed, the specific user may acquire the basic authentication information. Then, only the specific user may input the basic authentication information and input their own identification information, that is, owner identification information.

Meanwhile, when the basic authentication information is input, the digital system 100 may provide a predetermined UI or function so that the user may set authentication information for authenticating the owner identification information setting procedure.

Therefore, in the case of the authentication of the owner identification information setting procedure using the authentication information, the first purchaser performs authentication using the basic authentication information preset in the digital system 100, and then through the authentication information set by the buyer. Authentication of the rights holder identification information setting procedure may be performed. Therefore, the owner identification information setting procedure can be performed only by the person who knows the authentication information (that is, the person who is supposed to be the right holder).

On the other hand, the authentication of the rights holder identification information setting procedure using such authentication information may be disabled when the authentication information is leaked or detected by the attacker.

Therefore, according to another embodiment of the present invention, authentication of the rights holder identification information setting procedure may be performed using the pair apparatus 200 as described above. The technical idea of the present invention may be implemented under the assumption that the pair device 200 is provided and retained only to the rightful owner of the digital system 100.

An example of authentication of an owner identification information setting procedure using the pair device 200 is illustrated in FIG. 3.

3 is a view for explaining a method of performing a rights holder identification information setting procedure according to the digital system providing method for recording rights holder identification information according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, a user who first purchases the digital system 100 may receive a payment from a seller or a distributor of the pair device 200 set to be paired with the digital system 100. According to the embodiment, the pair device 200 may be supplied by the manufacturing company from the production stage, or may be a device (eg, a smart card capable of pairing function) that the user can directly purchase or carry. Then, the user may perform the owner identification information setting procedure only when the digital system 100 and the pair device 200 are paired. Identification information of the pair device 200 may be pre-recorded in the digital system 100, and the pair device 200 corresponding to the recorded identification information may be searched and communicated by the digital system 100. In this case, the digital system 100 may determine that pairing with the pair device 200 has been performed. Alternatively, pairing is performed only when identification information of the digital system 100 is recorded in the pair device 200 and the digital system 100 communicates with the pair device 200 storing its identification information. It can also be determined that it was performed. As such, when pairing is performed, the digital system 100 may provide a user with a function for setting rights holder identification information or a predetermined UI as shown in FIG. 3.

According to the type of communication performed by the digital system 100 and the pair device 200, a user may connect the digital system 100 or the pair device 200 to the pair device 200 or the digital system 100. It may be necessary to conduct an approach within a certain distance of.

Therefore, according to the spirit of the present invention, the owner identification information setting procedure may be performed only when the pair apparatus 200 is owned. In addition, when the right holder of the digital system 100 is changed, the pair device 200 may be transferred to the changed right holder.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the right holder of the digital system 100 is changed while the pair device 200 is present, and the pair device 200 is not transferred to the changed right holder, and the changed right holder uses the new pair device through various forms. It may be provided. For example, it may be provided through a place where the transfer can be authenticated, such as a mobile phone store. Alternatively, the controller 110 may be implemented to set a pair device 200 that is paired with the digital system 100. In this case, the controller 110 may convert the existing pair device 200 into the digital system 100. ), You can also register the party's assignee as a new pair. At this time, the control unit 110 may be paired with the pair device by receiving identification information of the pair device paired with the digital system 100, input of the identification information of the pair device is a predetermined application or the It may be performed by a party owner directly through a predetermined UI provided by the OS of the digital system 100 or by receiving identification information of the pair device through communication from the pair device to be paired with the digital system 100. .

Then, the new pair device becomes the pair device 200 to be paired with the digital system 100, and the existing pair device can be released from the pair with the digital system 100. Such a case may be particularly easily applied when a device that can be carried by an individual, such as various types of smart cards that can be authenticated, is used as a pair device. In particular, a plurality of devices that can be carried by an individual, such as various types of smart cards that can be authenticated, may be easily applied even when a pair device is to be changed.

According to an embodiment, a plurality of pair devices may be registered in the digital system 100, and the pair device 200 performing pairing with the digital system 100 may be selected whenever necessary.

Therefore, the owner of the pair device 200 may be treated as the owner of the digital system 100, and the owner identification information may be easily entered or changed, while the illegal user may use the digital. Unless the system 100 and the pair device 200 are both occupied, the owner identification information input or change procedure cannot be performed.

According to an embodiment, the rights holder identification information is input by an input method based on a predetermined criterion in the rights holder identification information input step, and the pair apparatus 200 and the digital system 100 are changed in the rights holder identification information change step. This pairing may be performed to change the owner identification information. According to the technical idea of the present invention, since it is not easy to change the rights holder identification information of the digital system after inputting, it requires stronger security for the procedure of changing the rights holder identification information.

On the other hand, according to the technical concept of the present invention, the digital system 100 may be implemented to receive only the input of the new owner identification information through the owner identification information setting procedure, the rights holder previously recorded through the owner identification information setting procedure It may be implemented to enable modification or deletion of the identification information. Whether to modify or change existing rights holder identification information through the rights holder identification information setting procedure may be determined according to an implementation example of the memory unit 120 in which the rights holder identification information is recorded.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the memory unit 120 may include at least one rights holder memory area in which rights holder identification information may be input. Each of the rights holder memory areas may be written only once, and may be implemented in hardware or software so as not to be deleted or changed. In order to implement the above functions in hardware, the memory element corresponding to the owner memory region may be implemented as a predetermined memory element (eg, a PROM, etc.) that can be written only once. Examples of the memory device that can be written only once and not deleted or changed may be various. The memory unit 120 may be implemented by only the memory device (for example, PROM) or may be implemented to include a memory device (for example, PROM) and some other memory device.

Meanwhile, the controller 110 may monitor access to the rights holder memory area and block a request to record new data by accessing the rights holder memory area so that only the software can be written to the rights holder memory area. have. In this case, the memory device included in the memory unit 120 may be implemented as various memory devices capable of writing, erasing, and changing.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the controller 110 may allow deletion or change of rights holder identification information recorded in the rights holder memory area. However, such deletion or change may be possible only when authentication of the rights holder identification information setting procedure is successful as described above.

In any case, the memory unit 120 may include at least one owner memory area, an example of which is illustrated in FIG. 2.

2 shows a schematic configuration of a memory unit according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the memory unit 120 may include a first area 121 in which rights holder identification information is recorded. The memory unit 120 may include only the first area 121 or may further include a second area 122 in which predetermined application data may be recorded in addition to the owner identification information.

The first area 121 may include at least one holder memory area (eg, 121-1, 121-2, 121-3, etc.) in which at least one holder identification information is recorded. In addition, each rights holder memory area (e.g., 121-1, 121-2, 121-3, etc.) indicates whether the recorded rights holder identification information (e.g., rights holder identification information 1, 2, or 3) is identification information of the current owner. The apparatus may further include an area (eg, 121-1-1) for storing predetermined designation information for determining whether to determine whether the information is determined. For example, rights holder identification information recorded in the rights holder memory area (eg, 121-3) having the specific value (eg, 1) may be rights holder identification information of the current owner.

The designated information is not necessarily stored in the memory unit 120, but may be stored in any memory area provided in the digital system 100. In this case, the designation information may include an address of a memory area in which rights holder identification information of a current owner is recorded.

In addition, as described above, a validity code for verifying validity of the rights holder identification information may be further recorded in each rights holder memory area (eg, 121-1, 121-2, 121-3, etc.). The validity code may include, for example, a predetermined value (eg, a hash value, a CRC code, etc.) or data capable of determining whether the rights holder identification information is valid rights holder identification information. By using the validity code, it is determined whether the right holder identification information recorded in each of the rights holder memory areas (eg, 121-1, 121-2, 121-3, etc.) is the right holder identification information recorded in a normal manner or an authorized manner. You may.

As such, the rights holder identification information recorded in the memory unit 120 maintains its integrity by allowing the user to delete or change only by an authorized subject or method, or a function that does not allow authentication, deletion or modification of the rights holder identification information setting procedure. Can be.

On the other hand, even if the rights holder identification information is maintained, if the memory unit 120 storing the rights holder identification information can be easily separated or replaced in the digital system 100, malicious use by a fraudulent user There may be a risk that this may become possible.

Therefore, the technical idea of the present invention can provide a technical idea to make it difficult or impossible to replace or separate the memory unit 120 in which the rights holder identification information is physically recorded.

An example of this is shown in Fig.

FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an embodiment in which a memory unit of a digital system in which rights holder identification information is recorded, according to an embodiment of the present invention is embedded in other hardware or integrated with other hardware.

Referring to FIG. 4, the digital system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include other hardware (for example, a motherboard, 130) in addition to the control unit 110 and the memory unit 120. have. For convenience of explanation, hereinafter, the other hardware (for example, the main board 130) will be described as an example of a main board, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.

According to the inventive concept, the memory unit 120 may be embedded in predetermined hardware (eg, a chip 10 including a CPU or an MPU). According to an embodiment, the control unit 110 and the memory unit 120 may be implemented in one chip form. Therefore, the unauthorized user may not be able to separate only the memory unit 120.

According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, the memory unit 120 may be integrally formed with other hardware (for example, the motherboard 130) even though it is not embedded in predetermined hardware. In this case, when the memory unit 120 and the hardware (eg, the main board 130) are physically separated, the memory unit 120 and the hardware (eg, the main board 130) are physically separated from each other. ), The memory unit 120 and the hardware (eg, the main board 130) may no longer be used due to a broken interface (eg, a connection line, a data bus, etc.).

According to another embodiment, the memory unit 120 is embedded in predetermined hardware (for example, a CPU chip, 10), and the like, and the hardware (for example, CPU chip, 10) is another hardware (for example, the main board 130). It may be implemented integrally with)).

As such, the memory unit 120 in which the rights holder identification information is recorded may be embedded in predetermined hardware, may be embodied integrally with predetermined hardware, or the hardware including the memory unit 120 may be embodied integrally with other hardware. have. Therefore, in order to prevent the owner identification information from being physically used, the fraudster user may consume excessive costs. This has the effect of preventing theft or theft of the digital system 100.

When the identification information of the rights holder of the digital system 100 is recorded in the memory unit 120 of the digital system 100, and the rights holder identification information is implemented to prevent (easily) deleting or changing the unauthorized user. Various services or functions may be implemented.

An example of this is shown in Fig.

FIG. 5 is a diagram for describing a concept in which a legitimate right holder can use the digital system in which the right holder identification information is recorded using a digital system in which the right holder identification information is recorded according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, the digital system 100 may be connected to a predetermined web server or service system 300 through wired or wireless communication. The digital system 100 may request a predetermined service from the service system 300. The service may vary according to the type of the service system 300, such as a login request, various services provided by the service system 300 after login, or various financial transaction services such as payment or transfer.

In this case, the digital system 100 may transmit the rights holder identification information recorded in the memory unit 120 to the service system 300 when or after the request for the service. In addition, the service system 300 may identify a user by using the transmitted owner identification information.

Then, the service system 300 may have an effect of providing various services only in the name of the owner (or other owner) of the digital system 100.

That is, according to the technical idea of the present invention, the identification information of the service requester requesting the service is not previously recorded in the digital system 100 (for example, ID), but is recorded in the digital system 100. There is an effect that can be achieved by the right holder identification information. For example, even if a fraudulent user who is not an owner of the digital system 100 requests a service by accessing the service system 300 in the name of the fraudulent user, that is, an account, the service system 300 may reject the service.

Thus, regardless of who the service requester actually requests (eg, owner, stealer, acquirer, etc.) through the digital system 100, the service system 300 determines the owner identification information as a service requester. can do.

Therefore, according to the implementation example, the service requester may perform a login by simply inputting authentication information such as a password without having to input a login ID or the like. According to this technical idea, since the user cannot select the name of the person requesting the service, the user may always provide the effect of using the service only with the account or the name corresponding to the rights holder identification information. In addition, it can provide an effect that can block the intention to abuse the digital system of others as its own system.

In addition, according to the technical idea of the present invention, even if the person who steals or misuses personal information does not possess the digital system 100 in the name of the owner, even if the user steals personal information, it cannot be misused. There is also the effect of reducing the intention to exploit itself.

In some implementations, various applications (eg, 20) may be installed in the digital system 100. Then, the controller 110 included in the digital system 100 may select a user application that can access the owner identification information.

For example, the controller 110 may maintain a white list of applications or processes that may access the rights holder identification information and use the rights holder identification information. In addition, only an application or a process included in the white list may allow access to the rights holder identification information. In such a case, there is an effect of preventing the right holder identification information from being tampered with by an attacker's application or process when it is distributed or transmitted through a network. Therefore, not only the integrity in recording, maintaining / managing the rights holder identification information, but also the integrity of the use of the rights holder identification information can be ensured. In addition, the integrity of the rights holder's identity is more secure by inherently preventing an attacker's application or process from accessing the rights holder's memory area (eg, 121-1, 121-2, 121-3, etc.) in which the rights holder's identity is recorded. It may be guaranteed.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for providing a digital system in which owner identification information is recorded may be embodied as computer readable codes on a computer readable recording medium. A computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording apparatuses in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. Examples of the computer-readable recording medium include a ROM, a RAM, a CD-ROM, a magnetic tape, a hard disk, a floppy disk, an optical data storage device, and the like in the form of a carrier wave (for example, . In addition, the computer-readable recording medium may be distributed over network-connected computer systems so that computer readable codes can be stored and executed in a distributed manner. And functional programs, codes, and code segments for implementing the present invention can be easily inferred by programmers skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims. Therefore, the true technical protection scope of the present invention will be defined by the technical spirit of the appended claims.
