Detailed Description

For the purposes of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more apparent, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by one of ordinary skill in the art without inventive effort, based on the embodiments in this disclosure are intended to be within the scope of this disclosure.

The embodiment of the disclosure is applied to a scene of starting a conference by using a conference system. For ease of explanation, reference may first be made to fig. 1 and 2, and fig. 1 and 2 are schematic diagrams of a conference system provided in an embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the conference system 100 may include: conference device 110, management device 120, and server 130. The conference device 110 is configured to acquire and output authentication information of itself, the management device 120 is configured to authenticate the conference device 110 according to the authentication information, and the server 130 is configured to generate authentication information or auxiliary information of the authentication information, and send the authentication information or auxiliary information of the authentication information to the conference device 110. Detailed description will follow for specific implementation of each device.

Note that, the management device 120 has conference management authority, which can be implemented by the configuration of the master administrator in the Admin management background.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of servers 130 may be one, and the devices of the conference device 110 and the management device 120 may be plural.

In a specific embodiment, the conference device 110 and the management device 120 may be in one-to-one correspondence, and the numbers of the two may be equal. As shown in fig. 1, an enterprise has three office sites, a site, B site, and C site, where each office site is provided with a conference device 110 and a management device 120, and each management device 120 is operable to authenticate a local conference device 110. Each conference device 110 may interact with the server 130 to obtain authentication information, and the implementation manner will be described in detail later.

In yet another embodiment, a plurality of conference devices 110 may correspond to one management device 120. In the conference system 100 shown in fig. 2, three office sites of a, B, and C are also involved, where a place is provided with one conference device 110 and one management device 120, and B places and C places are each provided with one conference device 110 and share one management device 120. For example, the B-site and the C-site may be two conference rooms in one office place where only one management device may be provided to manage a plurality of conference devices.

In the conference system 100, the conference device 110 may be a terminal device. In a specific implementation scenario, the device may be an audio device, a video device, or an audio-video device (a device capable of outputting audio and video), or may be a management device that controls audio and/or video output. Conference device 110 may be one device or a combination of devices. In an exemplary embodiment, the conference device 110 may be an audio-video system composed of a computer, a sound box, a loudspeaker, and a projector; alternatively, in another exemplary embodiment, the conference device 110 may be a computer in an audio/video system composed of a computer, a sound box, a loudspeaker, and a projector, and the computer may be used to manage the turning on or off of other devices.

The management device 120 may also be a terminal device. Further, the management device 110 may be a portable terminal device, which is convenient for an administrator to perform portable management, and is beneficial to simplifying the organization structure of the conference system 100, for example, the entire conference system may employ one portable management device 110 for management authorization.

In one embodiment, conference device 110 and administration bar 120 are not the same terminal device.

Specifically, the terminal device according to the embodiments of the present disclosure may be a wireless terminal or a wired terminal. A wireless terminal may be a device that provides voice and/or other traffic data connectivity to a user, a handheld device with wireless connectivity, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem. The wireless terminal may communicate with one or more core network devices via a radio access network (Radio Access Network, RAN for short), which may be mobile terminals such as mobile phones (or "cellular" phones) and computers with mobile terminals, for example, portable, pocket, hand-held, computer-built-in or vehicle-mounted mobile devices that exchange voice and/or data with the radio access network. For another example, the wireless terminal may be a personal communication service (Personal Communication Service, abbreviated PCS) phone, a cordless phone, a session initiation protocol (Session Initiation Protocol, abbreviated SIP) phone, a wireless local loop (Wireless Local Loop, abbreviated WLL) station, a personal digital assistant (Personal Digital Assistant, abbreviated PDA) or the like. A wireless Terminal may also be referred to as a system, subscriber Unit (Subscriber Unit), subscriber Station (Subscriber Station), mobile Station (Mobile Station), mobile Station (Mobile), remote Station (Remote Station), remote Terminal (Remote Terminal), access Terminal (Access Terminal), user Terminal (User Terminal), user Agent (User Agent), user equipment (User Device or User Equipment), without limitation. Optionally, the terminal device may also be a device such as a smart watch or a tablet computer.

And server 130 in conference system 100 may be of any type, such as a base station. The server 130 may be a base station (Base Transceiver Station, abbreviated BTS) and/or a base station controller in GSM or CDMA, a base station (NodeB, abbreviated NB) and/or a radio network controller (Radio Network Controller, abbreviated RNC) in WCDMA, an evolved base station (Evolutional Node B, abbreviated eNB or eNodeB) in LTE, a relay station or an access point, or a base station (gNB) in a future 5G network, for example, and the invention is not limited herein.

The communication manner between the server 130 and the conference device 110 is not particularly limited, and specifically, the communication between the two may be applicable to different network systems, for example, may be applicable to network systems such as global system for mobile communications (Global System of Mobile communication, abbreviated as GSM), code Division multiple access (Code Division Multiple Access, abbreviated as CDMA), wideband code Division multiple access (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access, abbreviated as WCDMA), time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access, abbreviated as TD-SCDMA), long term evolution (Long Term Evolution, abbreviated as LTE) and future 5G.

In the foregoing conference system, a "conference room" may also be established, each conference room corresponding to one conference scene. When a conference is initiated, the plurality of conference devices 110 may access the target conference room and perform audio-video interactions in the target conference room to implement a teleconference.

Thus, for any one of the conference devices 110, a process of initiating a conference, i.e. a process of the conference device 110 accessing the target conference room, is initiated. This will be described by taking a scenario in which one conference device 110 accesses a target conference room as an example.

The conference management method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure may be triggered when the conference device 110 is started; or may be triggered after the conference device 110 is started in response to a user's start conference instruction.

For example, reference may be made to the data interaction diagram shown in fig. 3, and as shown in fig. 3, the conference management method may include the following steps:

s302, the conference equipment receives first encryption information sent by the server.

As described above, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the server may be configured to directly generate authentication information, or may be configured to generate auxiliary information for the authentication information, where the auxiliary information is configured to assist the conference device in generating the authentication information. Therefore, the specific information carried in the first encrypted information may be authentication information or auxiliary information generated by the server.

And the conference equipment and the server perform data interaction through encryption information. This can improve the security of the transmitted information to some extent, and can also improve the information security of the conference system to some extent.

In an exemplary embodiment, a provisioning key may be maintained between the conference device and the server. In this way, the server encrypts the information by using the contract key, and the conference device decrypts the information by using the contract key as well, thereby obtaining the content in the encrypted information.

In another exemplary embodiment, the data transfer may be implemented by an asymmetric encryption algorithm, that is, using a pair of public keys (referred to as "public keys", public) and private keys (referred to as "private keys", non-public). For example, the server may encrypt the information using the public key of the conference device, and the conference device may decrypt the information using its private key to obtain the content in the encrypted information.

In another exemplary embodiment, the server and conferencing device may act as processing nodes on the blockchain, with information interaction by way of blockchain broadcasting. At this time, encryption and decryption are performed between the two by adopting an encryption algorithm on a blockchain.

In an actual scenario, the encryption information between the server and the conference device may be implemented in any encryption manner. The foregoing embodiments are merely examples of possible implementations of the disclosure, which are not exhaustive.

S304, the conference equipment acquires authentication information of the conference equipment by using the first encryption information.

As described above, after receiving the first encrypted information sent by the conference device, the conference device decrypts the first encrypted information to obtain the information content in the first encrypted information. At this time, the manner in which the conference device acquires the self authentication information is different based on the difference in information content, which will be described later.

And S306, the conference equipment outputs authentication information.

In particular, the purpose of this step is to pass the authentication information to the management device. Thus, in an actual implementation scenario, the output modes may include, but are not limited to: displaying authentication information; and/or transmitting the authentication information to the management device.

In an exemplary embodiment, the authentication information may be a two-dimensional code. At this time, the conference device can display the two-dimensional code on the display screen, so as to realize the output of authentication information.

In another exemplary embodiment, the conference device may further send the authentication information to the management device through a wired or wireless communication manner. It can be understood that if a data line exists between the conference device and the management device, the conference device and the management device can communicate in a wired mode or a wireless mode. In contrast, if there is no data line between the conference device and the management device, wireless communication may be performed.

Wireless communication means according to embodiments of the present disclosure may include, but are not limited to: wireless fidelity (Wireless Fidelity, wi-Fi) technology, bluetooth communication, radio communication, near field communication technology (Near Field Communication, NFC), etc.

S308, the management device acquires authentication information output by the conference device.

Based on the difference of the output modes of the conference equipment, the mode of the management equipment for acquiring the authentication information is also different.

For example, if the conference device displays the two-dimensional code, the management device may acquire the authentication information by scanning the two-dimensional code. Or if the conference device sends the authentication information in a wired or wireless mode, the management device receives the authentication information.

S310, the management device authenticates the conference device by using the authentication information.

The management device may be operated by an administrator, and thus, whether the management device authenticates the conference device or not may be manually confirmed by the administrator. Thus, the flexibility of the authentication process of the conference system is improved through manual participation management. In addition, compared with the method of authentication by using account passwords or license in the prior art, the manual authentication can also avoid the problem of information leakage caused by account theft and the like, and is beneficial to improving the security of a conference system.

In addition, compared with the mode that the user is required to input an account number password or license to carry out authentication in the prior art, the scheme does not need user processing, only needs management personnel to carry out authentication, and can realize authentication without inputting a long string of at least one combined password of numbers, letters and symbols, thereby omitting the complex operation of inputting long strings of characters by the user, being beneficial to improving authentication efficiency and having better user experience.

And S312, when the authentication is passed, the management device establishes a binding relationship between the conference device and the target conference room.

In particular, an association between a room identification of a target conference room (i.e., a target room identification) and a conference device is established to enable the conference device to access the target conference room.

S314, the conference device accesses the target conference room.

At any one time, the conference device may access a conference room. In particular, the conference device may access the currently bound target conference room according to the binding process of the management device.

It should be noted that, during any conference, it often involves two or more conference devices accessing the same target conference room. At this time, after one of the conference devices accesses the target conference room, the other conference devices may directly access the target conference room.

In an exemplary scenario, the authentication acquisition request sent by the conference device may carry device identifiers of all conference devices participating in the conference.

In another exemplary scenario, any one of the conference devices, or one of the conference devices that first accesses the target conference room, may invite other conference devices to access the target conference room after accessing the target conference room. For example, an access link may be created for accessing the target conference room; for another example, another conference device may be invited to access the target conference room by double-clicking (or other operation, such as clicking an invite virtual key) the device identification of the other conference device in the list of conference devices presented in the target conference room.

In summary, in the embodiment shown in fig. 3, when a conference is specifically started, the conference device may obtain authentication information of itself according to the encryption information sent by the server, which is beneficial to improving information security; in addition, in this embodiment, after the conference device outputs the authentication information, the management device performs authentication according to the authentication information, and the management device can be managed by a designated administrator, so that authentication in modes of account passwords, license and the like is not needed, and information security risks caused by account passwords leakage are avoided. In summary, according to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment, the conference device obtains the authentication information based on the processing of the server, so that the security of the authentication information is increased, the authentication management of the conference device is realized through the management device maintained by the administrator, the security risk caused by account number and password leakage is avoided, and the security of the conference system is effectively improved by combining the authentication information and the management device.

Specific embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in detail based on the embodiment shown in fig. 3.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, the authentication information is associated with a device identification of the conference device, a device type of the conference device, a first room identification of the candidate conference room.

In a possible embodiment, the device identifier of the conference device, the device type and the message of the first room identifier may be stored in the server, at this time, the server may directly generate authentication information of the conference device according to the foregoing information, encrypt the authentication information to form first encrypted information, and send the first encrypted information to the conference device.

In this embodiment, the candidate conference room may be assigned by the server, and the conference device may further send an authentication acquisition request to the server for requesting the server to issue authentication information before the server generates the first encrypted information.

For example, in one possible scenario, when the conferencing device is started, an authentication acquisition request is sent to the server; when the server receives the authentication acquisition request, the server can acquire the equipment identifier and the equipment type of the conference equipment and allocate a candidate conference room for the conference equipment, thereby generating authentication information. In this scenario, the conference device is started to trigger the implementation of the scheme, and the authentication acquisition request sent by the conference device to the server may be embodied as carrying a start notification.

For another example, in another possible scenario, a start-up notification may be sent to the server upon start-up of the conferencing device. At this time, the server temporarily does not generate authentication information. When the user operation collected by the conference device indicates to start the conference, for example, when the user clicks a conference button, the conference device sends an authentication acquisition request to the server, and at this time, the server may generate authentication information based on the authentication acquisition request.

As described above, each conference room may correspond to a room identifier, and in the foregoing embodiment, the server may record the binding situation of each room identifier, so that, when the conference room is allocated to the conference device, one room identifier in an unbound state may be selected as the first room identifier.

In this embodiment, after any conference device accesses the target conference room, the binding state of any conference device may also be sent to the server, so that the server maintains the binding condition of each room identifier, so as to facilitate the distribution of the conference room for each subsequent conference device.

In another possible embodiment, the message of the conference device type and the first room identification may be stored locally at the conference device. At this time, the first encryption information transmitted by the server may be auxiliary information of the authentication information, and the authentication information may be locally generated by the conference device based on the first encryption information.

In an exemplary embodiment, referring to fig. 4, as shown in fig. 4, the conference management method may include the steps of:

s3002, the conference device starts up, and sends a start-up notification to the server.

S3004, the server generates the first encryption information.

At this time, the information content carried in the first encrypted information may be: and generating a first two-dimensional code according to the equipment identifier of the conference equipment.

And S3006, the conference equipment decrypts the first encrypted information to obtain first decrypted information.

At this time, the first decryption information is a first two-dimensional code, and the first two-dimensional code is irrelevant to the type of the device. In other words, the device type is not carried in the first decryption information, at this time, S3008 is executed, and the conference device requests the server to update the first two-dimensional code.

S3008, the conference device sends an update request to the server.

At this time, the update request carries the device type of the conference device.

S3010, the server generates second encryption information.

The information content carried in the second encrypted information is: and generating a second two-dimensional code according to the equipment identifier and the equipment type of the conference equipment.

And S3012, the conference equipment receives second encryption information sent by the server in response to the update request.

S3014, the conference equipment decrypts the second encrypted information to obtain second decrypted information.

The second decryption information is the second two-dimensional code.

S3016, the conference equipment generates the authentication information by using the second decryption information and the first room identifier.

At this time, the conference apparatus adds the first room identification to the second decryption information as well, and generates authentication information.

In the foregoing embodiment, S3006 to S3016 in fig. 4 may correspond to step S304 in fig. 3.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the authentication information displayed by the conference device is obtained under the processing of the server, and in an actual scene, the conference device can interact with the server to obtain the authentication information generated by the server, or the authentication information is generated by the conference device according to the information sent by the server.

It will be appreciated that the embodiment shown in fig. 4 is one possible embodiment, and that other variations are possible in the actual scenario. For example, taking fig. 4 as an example, in S3008, the update request may carry the device type and the first room identifier of the conference device, so in S3014, the second decryption information obtained by decryption of the conference device is the authentication information. No longer need to be generated by the conference device.

As described above, if the authentication information is a two-dimensional code generated according to the device identifier, the device type, and the first room identifier of the conference device, the conference device only needs to display the two-dimensional code, and the management device scans and authenticates the two-dimensional code.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, after the management device scans the two-dimensional code or receives the authentication information, the authentication can be completed according to the operation of the management personnel.

In a possible embodiment, the management device may scan the two-dimensional code to implement authentication of the conference device. In other words, for the management device, authentication passing may be determined in response to scanning the two-dimensional code displayed by the conference device. That is, as long as the manager scans the two-dimensional code by using the management device, it is equivalent to authenticating the conference device, that is, "scanning authentication" is realized.

In another possible embodiment, after the management device obtains the authentication information, specific content (device identifier, device type, first room identifier) of the authentication information may be displayed, so that the management person may determine whether to authorize based on the specific content of the authentication information. At this time, after the management device displays the specific content of the authentication information, user operation information is acquired in real time, and if the operation information indicates that the authentication is passed, a binding step described in the following S312 is executed; otherwise, if the authentication fails, stopping executing other steps, or sending an authentication failure notification to the conference equipment so as to prompt the user by the conference equipment.

Correspondingly, if the conference device receives the authentication failure notification sent by the management device, a prompt message can be output to prompt the user that the authentication fails. The hint information may include, but is not limited to: vibration prompt, ringing prompt, text prompt, flashing prompt and heating prompt.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when authentication for the conference device is passed, the management device may establish a binding relationship between the conference device and the target conference room.

In an embodiment, the management device may directly establish a binding relationship between the conference device and the target conference room according to the first room identifier carried in the authentication information. That is, the first room identifier is directly used as the target room identifier, the conference room corresponding to the first room identifier is used as the target conference room, and the binding relationship between the conference equipment and the conference room corresponding to the first room identifier is established.

In another embodiment of the present invention, the management device further provides a function of manually selecting the first room identifier for the manager when the binding relationship between the conference device and the target room identifier is established.

At this time, in performing step S312, it may be implemented as follows: when the authentication is passed, the management device outputs the room identification of the bindable conference room; then, the management equipment acquires operation information of a user aiming at the room identification, and determines a second room identification indicated by the operation information; thereby, a binding relationship between the conference device and the target conference room is established, and the target room identification corresponds to the second room identification.

The management device may further obtain a first room identifier carried in the authentication information when the room identifier list is displayed, and highlight the first room identifier in the room identifier list, for example, highlight display, red display, or the like. And when the second room identification selected by the user is inconsistent with the first room identification, the management device can also output prompt information for operation so as to facilitate the manager to determine whether to modify the conference room. If the manager determines modification, the second room identifier is used as a target room identifier, and a binding relationship between the target conference room and the conference equipment corresponding to the second room identifier is established.

For example, when the audio/video device (conference device) outputs its own two-dimensional code, the manager can take the mobile phone (management device) to scan the two-dimensional code, so as to realize scanning authentication. At this time, a room identifier list of each conference room may be output on a display interface of the mobile phone, where a first room identifier (assumed to be room identifier 2) carried in the two-dimensional code may be highlighted in the room identifier list, for example, highlighting or redmarking; thus, the manager can select among the room identification list. Then, when the manager operates the selected second room identifier as the room identifier 2, the management device may establish a binding relationship between the audio/video device and the target conference room.

Conversely, if the second room identifier selected by the manager is the room identifier 1, a prompt message for operation may be output to prompt the user whether to switch the target conference room from the conference room 2 (room identifier 2) to the conference room 1 (room identifier 1). If the administrator selects "determine", the room identification 2 may be determined as the target conference room, and a binding relationship between the conference room 2 and the audio-visual apparatus may be established.

Correspondingly, the management device can acquire the binding state between the conference device and the conference room, so that when the binding state is bound, the target conference room is accessed.

In a specific embodiment, the management device may store the binding relationship between the two in a preset location to implement the binding operation. In this embodiment, the conference device may read the data of the preset location and determine whether itself is authenticated accordingly. It will be appreciated that if a record of the binding relationship between the conference device and the target room identity is recorded herein, the conference device determines that the authentication passes, accessing the target room.

In another specific embodiment, the attribute information of the conference device is provided with a field, which is used for identifying the room identifier currently bound by the conference device. At this time, the management device may write the target room identification into the attribute information of the conference device, and thus, the conference device may determine whether authentication is successful based on the attribute information of itself.

In addition, the above two embodiments may be combined, and the management device may write the binding relationship between the two in a preset location, and write the target room identifier in attribute information of the conference device. At this time, the conference device may or may not have the read right at the preset position. The conference device determines the binding state based on the attribute of the conference device.

In summary, through the foregoing steps, the start of the conference system may be achieved.

On the basis, in the embodiment of the disclosure, when the conference is finished, the management device is further used for releasing the binding relation.

It will be appreciated that the manner in which the binding relationship is established is the same as in the case of contact binding relationships. Specifically, the management device may delete the binding relationship of the preset position record; and/or deleting the room identification recorded in the conference equipment designated field. Thus, when the conference device is started again, the conference can be started according to the method.
