Description

  The present invention relates to a security setting proposal server that proposes an appropriate security set for user information, a user terminal, a security setting proposal method, and a security setting proposal server program.

  In recent years, various services are provided to users by connecting a mobile terminal connected to a public network to a Web server or the like. In particular, with the advent of smartphones (high-function mobile phones), it has become possible to perform advanced services that have been provided for personal computers with mobile phones.

  However, with the widespread use of user terminals, there are an increasing number of cases where users who are immature in age or who are not familiar with the Internet own terminals individually. As a result of allowing unrestricted access to the Internet by such users, harmful content may be provided or trouble may occur with other users such as fraud and fictitious charges.

  Therefore, it is necessary to avoid danger without impairing convenience as much as possible by setting appropriate security for such a user terminal according to the user to be used.

  For such a problem, a technique of automatically filtering harmful information using collaborative filtering is disclosed.

JP 2002-222193 A

  In the technique disclosed in Patent Document 1, character information is extracted from Internet information to be taken into a browser, and an input sentence vector Q is created. Then, a similarity or correlation coefficient with each learning information vector in the learning information vector group 30 registered in advance is calculated, and a learning information vector group having a high similarity or correlation coefficient is extracted. Then, an extension target word is selected using the score of the word included in the extracted learning information vector group, and an extended input sentence vector Qnew for the original input sentence vector is created. Then, using this extended input sentence vector, it is determined whether or not the Internet information to be acquired is inappropriate information.

  However, although this method can provide an automatic and effective filtering function, the filtering result is the same as long as the learning information vector group is the same. Therefore, the filtering criteria can be changed according to the user attribute. Can not.

[Outline of Security Setting Proposal System 1]
FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining an outline of a security setting proposal system 1 which is a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Based on this FIG. 1, the outline | summary of the security setting proposal system 1 is demonstrated.

  In the security setting proposal system 1, the security setting proposal server 200 can communicate with a plurality of user terminals 10. Here, the terminal that receives the security setting proposal is distinguished from the user terminal 10 and the other user terminals 10 are classified as the user terminal 10a, the user terminal 10b, and the user terminal 10c.

  First, the user terminal 10a, the user terminal 10b, and the user terminal 10c transmit the currently used security set together with the user information to the security setting proposal server 200 (step S01). Here, the security set is a series of combinations of parameters used as security settings. For example, the security set is a combination of parameters such as Internet restrictions, telephone restrictions, and usage time restrictions of the user terminal 10. These parameters may be a flag that takes a binary value of on or off, or may be a specific value. Specific values include, for example, website domains that are not permitted to be browsed, search words that do not display search results, and numerical values of continuous use time related to use time restrictions.

  Next, the security setting proposal server 200 associates the received security set with the user information and stores them in the security set statistical database 250 provided in the storage unit (step S02). The security set statistical database 250 is a database that stores a security set being used for each user information as statistical data.

Next, the user terminal 10 that receives the security set proposal this time transmits a proposal request to the security setting proposal server 200 together with the user information (step S0 3 ). Here, the user information includes at least the age of the user, and may be a value that can be treated as a variable that can take significant statistics when providing a security set suitable for the user. That is, it refers to demographic information such as gender and age, not an identifier that can identify a user such as a personal name or a telephone number.

  In addition, the user terminal 10 makes a predetermined question such as a questionnaire item such as whether to enable the Internet restriction in the security set or a question that measures the degree of understanding of the user's Internet, and includes the result in the user information. It is possible to collect more appropriate security set statistics according to the user's request and degree of understanding.

  When receiving the proposal request, the security setting proposal server 200 extracts statistical information using the user information received at the same time (step S04). And the proposal security set is produced | generated from the result, and it transmits to the user terminal 10 which transmitted the proposal request | requirement (step S05).

  The simplest proposed security set is to transmit statistical information on the usage ratio of a plurality of security sets as a pie chart as shown in FIG. The user can select an appropriate security set while looking at the details of the graph and the security set. In addition, after sending only one security set at the beginning and setting it to the user terminal 10, the user may individually customize or reflect the request answered to the question item. . The above is the outline of the security setting proposal system 1.

[System configuration of security setting proposal system]
FIG. 2 is an overall configuration diagram of the security setting proposal system 1. The security setting proposal system 1 includes a plurality of user terminals 10 and a security setting proposal server 200. The user terminal 10 and the security setting proposal server 200 are connected to each other via a public line network. The user terminals 10 do not need to be able to communicate with each other.

  The user terminal 10 may be a general information terminal used by a user, and is an information device or an electrical appliance having functions to be described later. The user terminal 10 may be, for example, a white appliance such as a refrigerator, a washing machine, a network device such as a mobile phone, a smartphone, a composite printer, a television, a router or a gateway, a computer, a telephone, a network It may be a general information appliance such as a book terminal, a slate terminal, an electronic book terminal, an electronic dictionary terminal, a portable music player, and a portable content playback / recording player.

  The security setting proposal server 200 is a server that proposes a security set, and is an information device or an electrical appliance that includes a security set statistical database 250 in a storage unit and has functions to be described later.

[Description of each function]
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating the relationship between the function blocks of the user terminal 10 and the security setting proposal server 200 and each function.

  The user terminal 10 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a RAM (Random Access Memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), and the like as the control unit 11, and the communication unit 12 is, for example, WiFi (Wireless) compliant with IEEE 802.11. A device compatible with Fidelity or a wireless device conforming to the IMT-2000 standard such as a third generation mobile communication system is included (may be a wired LAN connection).

  Furthermore, the user terminal 10 includes an output unit that outputs and displays data, images, and sound controlled by the control unit as the input / output unit 13, and includes an input unit such as a touch panel, a keyboard, and a mouse that receives input from the user. Prepare.

  In the user terminal 10, when the control unit 11 reads a predetermined program, the user information transmission module 14, the proposal request transmission module 15, the proposal security set reception module 16, the proposal security set setting module in cooperation with the communication unit 12. 17 is realized. In the user terminal 10, the control unit 11 reads a predetermined program, thereby realizing the question execution module 18 in cooperation with the input / output unit 13.

  Similarly, the security setting proposal server 200 includes a CPU, a RAM, a ROM, and the like as the control unit 201, and includes, for example, a WiFi compatible device compliant with IEEE 802.11 (may be wired) as the communication unit 202. . In addition, the security setting proposal server 200 includes a data storage unit such as a hard disk or a semiconductor memory as the storage unit 203. The storage unit 203 includes a security set statistical database 250 in the storage unit.

  When the control unit 201 of the security setting proposal server 200 reads a predetermined program, the security set reception module 204, the user information reception module 205, the proposal request reception module 206, the proposal security set transmission module cooperates with the communication unit 202. 207 is realized. Also, the control unit 201 of the security setting proposal server 200 reads a predetermined program, thereby realizing a security set storage module 208 and a security set extraction module 209 in cooperation with the storage unit 203.

[Security setting proposal processing]
FIG. 3 is a flowchart of the security setting proposal process executed by the user terminal 10 and the security setting proposal server 200. The processing performed by the module of each device described above will be described together with this processing.

  First, prior to receiving a security setting proposal, the question execution module 18 of the user terminal 10 asks the user a question based on a predetermined question item (step S11). This question is for the purpose of receiving proposals for appropriate security settings, and is used to obtain user demographic information, consult requests regarding security settings, and measure user proficiency regarding the Internet and terminals. . As specific questions, it may be possible to ask whether or not there is an Internet restriction and ask about the history of Internet use.

  Next, the user information transmission module 14 of the user terminal 10 transmits the answer to the question and the user's own information together as user information to the security setting proposal server 200 (step S12), and the user of the security setting proposal server 200 The information receiving module 205 receives this (step S13). Here, the user information other than the question items is mainly demographic information, that is, demographic information. Specifically, gender, age, area where you live, income, occupation, educational background, family structure, etc. are mentioned, you may read from the registration information of the user terminal 10, or obtain information by such a question Also good.

  Next, the proposal request transmission module 15 of the user terminal 10 transmits a security setting proposal request (step S14), and the proposal request reception module 206 of the security setting proposal server 200 receives this (step S15).

  Then, the security set extraction module 209 of the security setting proposal server 200 extracts a security set from the security set statistical database 250 using the user information received together with the proposal request (step S16). Since the security set statistical database 250 stores security sets and user information in association with each other, security set statistical data is created by extracting security sets having the same or similar user information and counting the numbers. Is possible.

  FIG. 6 is an example of a security set table in the security set statistical database 250. In the security set table, a combination of parameters constituting security settings is stored as a security set together with a security set name. For example, according to FIG. 6, “Security Set A” has usage time restrictions, Internet restrictions, mail restrictions, and GPS tracking enabled, and telephone restrictions are disabled. These security set tables do not necessarily have to be separated for each of various security software for performing security settings, and may be stored and shared as elements that can be conceptualized.

  FIG. 7 is an example of a security set statistics table in the security set statistics database 250. In the security set statistics table, the security set and user information being used are stored in association with each other. In the range shown in this figure, when a security set of a user whose user age is “12” is extracted, three “security sets A” and one “security set C” are extracted.

  The extraction condition can also be specified by the contents of the question items included in the user information, and the value may be widened to increase similar information. For example, it is possible to extract a range of plus or minus 3 years from the received user's age as similar, or to ignore and extract the question item A that does not have a significant effect at a certain age.

  Thereafter, the proposed security set transmission module 207 transmits the extracted security set to the user terminal 10 as a proposed security set (step S17). The proposed security set may be all extracted security sets, or may be processed or selected from the extracted security sets. For example, it is possible to exclude a security set that clearly contradicts the answer result of a question item, such as being disabled to desire the Internet restriction. The proposed security set may include a plurality of security sets and allow the user to select from among them.

  When the proposed security set receiving module 16 of the user terminal 10 receives the proposed security set (step S18), the proposed security set setting module 17 sets the proposed security set as the security setting of the user terminal 10 (step S19).

  FIG. 5 is an example of a screen of the user terminal 10 that has received the proposed security set. Like the demographic information 51, the statistical information extraction conditions are shown, and the statistical information 52 is shown below. By pressing the setting button 53, it is possible to set the corresponding security set in the user terminal 10. Further, by touching each item of the pie chart, the details of each item may be shown, or it may be possible to make settings after making any changes to the security set.

  Next, the user terminal 10 transmits the contents of the set security set to the security setting proposal server (step S20). The security set receiving module 204 of the security setting proposal server 200 receives this (step S21).

  Finally, the security set storage module 208 of the security setting proposal server 200 stores the received security set in the security set statistical database 250 in association with the user information received in step S13 (step S21). This increases the statistical information available for the next request for proposal.

  The means and functions described above are realized by a computer (including a CPU, an information processing apparatus, and various terminals) reading and executing a predetermined program. The program is provided in a form recorded on a computer-readable recording medium such as a flexible disk, CD (CD-ROM, etc.), DVD (DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, etc.), for example. In this case, the computer reads the program from the recording medium, transfers it to the internal storage device or the external storage device, stores it, and executes it. The program may be recorded in advance in a storage device (recording medium) such as a magnetic disk, an optical disk, or a magneto-optical disk, and provided from the storage device to a computer via a communication line.
