< first embodiment >

< method >

In an embodiment, a method of detecting an electronic device is provided. The electronic device may be any device having hardware such as a processor, memory, controller, operator, etc.

The detection method of the electronic equipment is implemented through a server. A server is any device that provides services such as data processing, management, and the like. For example, the server may be a blade server or a cloud server. In one example, the hardware configuration of the server may be the server 1100 as shown in FIG. 1.

As shown in fig. 2, the method for detecting the electronic device includes: steps S2100-S2300.

In step S2100, a connection with a target electronic device is established.

The target electronic equipment acquires the access address of the server and establishes connection between the target electronic equipment and the server.

The access address of the server is a network address where the server can be accessed through a network. The access address of the server may be in the form of, for example, a URL (Uniform Resource Locator).

In this embodiment, the server may respond to a request from the target electronic device or the external terminal device, and provide its own access address in real time; the server may also preset its own access address in the target electronic device by burning firmware, network issuing, and the like after generating its own access address, so as to provide its own access address, for example, the two-dimensional code information including the access address of the server may be set on the target electronic device or on a specification of the target electronic device, so that the target electronic device or an external terminal device scans the two-dimensional code to obtain the access address of the server; alternatively, the access address of the server may be pre-stored in a local storage of the target electronic device, the target electronic device may provide a trigger entry such as a click button, and the access address of the server may be automatically read after the user operates the trigger entry.

Step S2200 receives device hardware information of the target electronic device.

The device hardware information is related information of hardware included in the corresponding electronic device, and may be set according to a specific hardware type, a hardware number, a hardware attribute parameter, and the like included in the electronic device. For example, in one example, the device hardware information includes at least hardware identification information of the electronic device. The hardware identification information is used to uniquely identify hardware included in the electronic device. For example, the hardware identification information may include a baseband version number, a processor number, a memory number, a motherboard number, etc. of the electronic device.

Step S2300, detecting whether the target electronic device is a genuine device according to the device hardware information, and transmitting a detection result indicating whether the target electronic device is a genuine device to the target electronic device.

In the embodiment, the server is directly connected with the target electronic equipment, the hardware information of the electronic equipment can be received without other transfer equipment such as terminal equipment in the subsequent detection process, the safety of the hardware information of the electronic equipment is ensured, the server detects the target electronic equipment according to the hardware information of the equipment to determine whether the target electronic equipment is legal equipment, and compared with the existing detection mode of inquiring the anti-counterfeiting two-dimensional code indicating whether the equipment is legal or not, the method can accurately detect the pirate equipment obtained by modifying, replacing, reducing the hardware of the equipment and the like, improve the accuracy of legal detection and improve the effect of the pirate prevention equipment.

In one example, the device hardware information at least includes hardware identification information of the electronic device, and the step of detecting whether the target electronic device is a legal device includes: steps S2310-S2320.

Step S2310, a first verification code is generated according to the device hardware information by a preset verification algorithm.

In this example, the verification algorithm is an algorithm for generating a verification code for verifying whether the electronic device is a legal device according to the device hardware information, and may be set according to a specific application scenario or application requirements. For example, the verification algorithm may be a obfuscation algorithm, a hash algorithm, or an MD5 message digest algorithm, etc., which may be calculated according to the input information to generate a unique character string as the first verification code.

Step S2320, matching the first verification code with a plurality of second verification codes stored locally:

and when the second verification code matched with the first verification code does not exist, determining that the target electronic equipment is not the legal equipment.

In this example, the second verification code is generated in advance by a preset verification method according to the device hardware information of the legal device and is stored locally. In practical application, a manufacturer that produces the legal-copy device may generate, according to the device hardware information of each legal-copy device, a corresponding second verification code by using a preset verification method and store the second verification code in a local storage (for example, a database of the server) of the server, so as to implement the detection method for the electronic device according to this embodiment. When a second verification code identical to the first verification code exists in the local storage, it is determined that a second verification code matching the first verification code exists.

It should be understood that, in order to further enhance the security, the server may further store each second verification code in a uniquely corresponding password string or mapping string according to a preset encryption algorithm or mapping rule. Correspondingly, when a password character string or a mapping character string uniquely corresponding to a second verification code identical to the first verification code exists in the local existence, the second verification code matched with the first verification code is determined to exist.

In an example, as shown in fig. 4, the method for detecting an electronic device may further include:

step S2400, when it is detected that the target electronic device is a legal device, a start instruction is sent to the target electronic device, and the target electronic device is triggered to start and run a hidden program corresponding to the start instruction.

The hidden program is an application program which is preset in the legal device, invisible to a device user and incapable of being started by the user. In this example, the hidden program can provide application-specific functionality that is only available to the user of the legal device.

When the target electronic equipment is the legal equipment, the starting instruction is sent to the target electronic equipment, and the target electronic equipment is triggered to automatically start and operate the hidden program, so that a user of the legal equipment can obtain a specific application function, and the user experience is improved.

For example, the hidden program may be a device locking program, and when the server detects that the target electronic device is a genuine device, the server queries a record that the target electronic device is reported to be stolen, and may trigger the target electronic device to run the device locking program by sending a start instruction, so as to lock itself, thereby preventing the target electronic device from being misused illegally.

As another example, the hiding procedure may be a fault detection procedure. The fault detection program is an application program for acquiring device fault information and logs by means of detection, inquiry, and the like. Correspondingly, the detection method of the electronic device in this example further includes: steps S2410-S2420.

Step S2410, obtaining a fault detection result obtained by the target electronic device running the fault detection program.

The fault detection result comprises equipment fault information and logs obtained by running a fault detection program by the target electronic equipment. The equipment failure information may include a failure type, a failure code. The log may include the time of the failure transmission, historical failure handling conditions, and the like.

Step S2420, a failure recovery step is performed according to the failure detection result.

In this example, the fault repairing step includes at least one of triggering the target electronic device to start the repair software, triggering the target electronic device to restart, acquiring the device location of the target electronic device, and triggering the target electronic device to start the anti-theft program.

In this example, when the target electronic device is a genuine device, the server may trigger the target electronic device to run a fault detection program to obtain a fault detection result, so as to selectively execute a corresponding fault repairing step according to the fault detection result, and thus, the fault of the target electronic device may be repaired after being accurately positioned in a self-adaptive manner, and the fault detection and repair efficiency is improved. The method can overcome the defects that the actual fault of the equipment cannot be accurately positioned due to the fact that the fault is reported by the equipment user, time and labor cost are too high due to the fact that the fault detection and repair are finished by the aid of after-sales personnel, and the like.

It should be understood that, in this example, when it is detected that the target electronic device is not the genuine device, the server may also send a push message or a trigger instruction to the target electronic device when sending the detection result to the target electronic device, and trigger the target electronic device to remind the user to purchase the genuine device in a form of popping up a prompt box, highlighting a message, etc.; or triggering the target electronic equipment to send corresponding information to the terminal equipment connected with the target electronic equipment, and enabling the terminal equipment to remind a user of purchasing the legal equipment in the forms of popping up a prompt box, pushing a message by highlight messages and the like.

In this case, the detection result and the start instruction may be combined in a message conforming to a preset format and transmitted to the target electronic device. The target electronic equipment can simultaneously obtain the detection effect and operate the corresponding hidden program according to the starting instruction by analyzing the message, so that the equipment detection efficiency is improved.

The preset format is a message format based on which the detection result and the starting instruction are spliced into a message, and can be set according to a specific application scene or application requirements.

For example, the preset format may be a message format conforming to the URL Scheme protocol. The URL Scheme protocol is a jump-in-page protocol, and supports protocol customization according to personalized requirements so as to realize jump of various customized pages corresponding to the jump.

Taking the example that a client application registers a URL scheme to an operating system, where the URL scheme is used to start the client application from a browser or other applications, and through a specified URL field, the client application can directly open some specific pages, such as a product detail page, an activity detail page, and the like, after being invoked; the client application may also be triggered to perform certain specified actions, such as completing a payment, etc.; displaying a certain page within the client application may also be invoked directly within the client application by means of an html page, etc.

The URL Scheme protocol format usually includes several fields of Scheme, host, path, port, query. Wherein, the scheme field represents the scheme protocol name; the host field represents which address field the scheme acts on, the path field represents a page path specified by the scheme protocol, and the host field and the port field can form an authority field; the port field represents the port number of the path; the query represents a parameter to be transferred, and when the parameter to be transferred is plural, plural values can be transferred in combination using "&". One example may be as shown in fig. 4.

In this example, the server may combine the detection result with the start instruction in a format conforming to the URL Scheme protocol to obtain a message of a customized URL Scheme protocol, and send the message to the target electronic device, and the target electronic device analyzes the message, so that the detection effect may be obtained at the same time, and a corresponding hidden program may be run according to the start instruction, thereby improving the device detection efficiency.

Alternatively, the server 200 may be the server 1100 shown in fig. 1, and may include other hardware configurations such as a display device.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that server 200 may be implemented in a variety of ways. For example, server 200 may be implemented by an instruction configuration processor. For example, the server 200 may be implemented by storing instructions in ROM and reading the instructions from ROM into a programmable device when the device is started. For example, the server 200 may be consolidated into a dedicated device (e.g., ASIC). The server 200 may be divided into separate units or may be implemented by combining them together.
