Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth, such as a specific configuration, which are provided to assist in a more general understanding of the present invention, and the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. It is self-evident to those who have. In the following description of the present invention, if it is determined that a detailed description of a related known function or configuration may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted. The above objects, features and advantages will become more apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

1 is a schematic block diagram of a system to which the present invention is applied, and FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a cipher generation process according to an embodiment of the present invention.

First, a system to which the present invention is applied will be described with reference to FIG. 1 as follows.

The user computers 40, 41, and 49 may be general personal computers, Internet phones, personal digital assistants, and the like, as a means for connecting a user to the information providing server through the Internet 50.

The information providing server 10 provides a financial service, an information service, and the like, and authenticates the user's unique information (identifier and password) input by the user at the time of user access to provide a service in the case of a normal subscriber.

In user authentication, a device (either a user computer or an information providing server) on which a program for implementing the present invention is installed automatically generates and outputs Korean key data input by a user in a combination of alphanumeric characters.

The processing of the user's unique information according to an embodiment of the present invention is performed by converting a Hangul phrase input by a user into a word and a combination of alphanumeric characters using a preset conversion table. Shown in Table 1 shows tables for converting Korean consonants and vowels into English, and Table 2 shows tables for converting Korean short vowels to numbers.

Consonant English Consonant or heavy vowel English A A ㅈ M ㄲ B ㅉ N N C H O C D Lol P ㄸ E ㅌ Q D F ㅍ R M G ㅎ S ㅂ H ㅐ T ㅃ I ㅒ U S J ㅔ V ㅆ K ㅖ W ㅇ L

collection number collection number ㅏ 0 ㅛ 5 ㅑ One TT 6 ㅓ 2 ㅠ 7 ㅕ 3 ㅡ 8 ㅗ 4 ㅣ 9

As shown in the above table, in the present invention, a consonant and a middle vowel of a Korean phrase input by a user are converted into English, and a short vowel is converted into a number.

2, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail.

When the user first accesses the information providing server 10 to subscribe to the service, the information providing server 10 requests the user's unique information (identifier and password) registration for user authentication and inputs Korean phrases. At this time, when a program for implementing the present invention is installed in a user computer, the user computer side is required to input Korean characters.

When the user inputs the user's unique information in Korean, the information providing server (or the user's computer) registers the converted data as a combination of alphabets and numbers as the unique information by using a pre-stored conversion table (Table 1, Table 2). For example, if the user enters "sound", it is converted to "J4F9" by the conversion table.

When the user accesses the service after completing the registration in the information providing server 10, the user-specific information processing according to the present invention is the same.

In step 200 of FIG. 2, when the user accesses the information providing server 10, the information providing server (or user computer) requests the user to input unique information (identifier and password) in Korean. It is determined whether the key data of the input character is Korean. In operation 230, the information providing server (or the user computer) searches the conversion table and checks whether information corresponding to the input consonants and vowels of the Hangul phrase exists. In step 240, the information providing server (or user computer) converts the input Korean key data into key data of a combination of alphanumeric characters by a conversion table. In step 250, the information providing server (or user computer) outputs the data converted into a combination of alphanumeric characters as user unique information so that user authentication is performed.

As described in the above description, the present invention allows the user to set and use the user's unique information in Korean, which is easy to remember and manage, and when the user inputs Korean data, the consonant and the middle vowel are automatically converted into English, and the short vowel is automatically converted into numbers.
