Description

Server Fraud Prevention Server Device {SERVER FOR PROTECTING ACCOUNT FRAUD}

The present invention relates to an account stealing prevention server apparatus having a communication mechanism, and more particularly, to an account stealing prevention server apparatus which performs a process of opening authentication or a lock operation of a personal account by dial-up using a communication apparatus having a specific number.

With the constant advancement of modern science and technology, people have been dealing with many large and small things in their lives through computers and the Internet. In addition to food, vocational, education, and entertainment, everything from government agencies and corporations to small homes and individuals is all done using computers. For example, in order to be able to communicate more quickly, opening a dedicated website and building a blog of its own, whether it is a company, a store, or an individual, is already very common, and other forms of use Mail is being used in a larger volume in our lives in accordance with the spread of computers and networks in a manner that delivers personal information with a specific person or group through a network.

In addition, the situation of network consumption is also becoming more and more common, which means that displaying, promoting, and selling products through the network is not only cheaper than the past newspapers, broadcasting, and automobile advertisements, but also due to the characteristics of network search. Advertisement can help you reach the customers you need more quickly or find the manufacturers you need. Network games are also an emerging consumer, and if a game provider offers user registration, users can interact with other users online. The game provider also provides a virtual device that the user uses during the game process, which typically requires a cost, which is also a major source of revenue for the game provider. The user invests a lot of money and spirit in participating game tables, accumulating his own experience and obtaining more practical virtual devices. The acquired virtual device is usually sold through a network and may be resold to others at a corresponding market price, which likewise brings a profit to the user.

However, as the number of users is constantly increasing, the profits hidden therein also increase, and some users with relatively large assets or virtual devices may be targeted by people with bad behavior. These people obtain account data and personal information from these users by using screen captures, porting Trojan programs, or directly breaking into the computer, and then selling the virtual device without authorization or by selling the credit card number of the user. It may be difficult for a user to be stolen by illegally using the user's account.

When used in practice, conventionally, when a user wants to use his own account, the user only needs to enter an account name and a password. Although it is relatively easy to use, a large hole in safety can be revealed. When a user's account data is exposed or stolen, the user's own interests can be damaged, and the willingness to use them can be affected. The situation may gradually occur. If the tables that were originally provided so that everyone could connect with each other were impacted by safety considerations, they could damage both the service provider and the user, which is not what we expected.

Therefore, the main object of the present invention is to provide an account stealing prevention server device having a kind of communication mechanism, to improve the conventional security flaw in the modification of the account state by entering the user's account and password on the network.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a communication device for receiving a dial-up connection to a server device from a communication device having a specific number and recognizing a received telephone number, and for the users having an account that can access the server. A database for storing a telephone number, and a comparison device for comparing whether the telephone number stored in the database matches with the telephone number received by the communication device, and the server device matches a result of the comparison of the comparison device. If there is a number, there is provided a server device for preventing account theft, characterized in that executing one of opening a user account and locking a user account.

The anti-theft mechanism provided by the server device includes the user executing the following procedure before and after using one specific account:

(a) dialing up to a server main body using a communication number with a specific number;

(b) the server main body answering the call and retrieving the received telephone number;

(c) the server main body storing the telephone number in a database (DB);

(d) comparing and comparing the telephone number and the contents of the registered account data with each other;

(e) if it matches, executing the opening or locking of the user account; And

(f) if it does not match, terminating the comparison control;

Through the above procedure, it is possible to solve the problem that an account and a password are easily exposed or stolen and cause an irrecoverable loss to the user. The novelty, features, and other objects and effects of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings to help understanding.

The present invention is a server device for preventing account theft, and is provided to a unit that provides a registration service such as a network service company or a site to increase data safety of an existing account service, and occurs only through a network through an opening or locking process of an actual communication device. Improved the risk of possible theft. In addition, since the server main body does not need to acquire and call only the telephone number dialed by the user, the operation process can be further simplified, and the user does not have to pay connection costs, thereby providing the user with a more convenient and economical anti-theft mechanism. The safety of use has been remarkably improved, and the user's concern about safety has been solved so that it can be used with confidence. The present invention broadens the industrial usability and the advancement of the anti-theft mechanism, so that it meets the utility model registration requirements.

However, the contents described above are limited to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and thus do not limit the scope of the present invention, and all equivalent changes and modifications based on the utility model registration claims of the present invention are all intended for the present invention. It is considered to be included in the scope of rights.

(b) the server main body answers the call and retrieves the received telephone number

(c) the server body storing the telephone number in the database

(d) comparing and comparing telephone numbers with the contents of already registered account data

(e) if it does, open or lock a user account;

(f) if it does not match, terminating the comparison

(g) A user enters a network server built by a network game provider through a personal computer facility and enters an account password.

(h) the network server determining whether the user's account is open

Referring to FIG. 1, this is the basic structure of the anti-theft mechanism of the present invention, and includes the following procedures before and after the user uses one specific account:

(a) dialing up to a server main body using a communication device having a specific number;

(b) the server main body answering the call and retrieving the received telephone number;

(c) the server body storing the telephone number in a database;

(d) comparing and comparing the telephone number and the contents of the registered account data with each other;

(e) opening / locking user accounts, if there is a match; And

(f) if it does not match, terminating the comparison control;

Referring to FIG. 2, in a line connection relationship between a network game table constructed by a network game provider and a user, a communication device used by a user of the procedure (a) may be a fixed telephone number such as a general indoor phone or a mobile phone. It is a facility that can be sent out, and such a facility is owned by the user and is not easily duplicated or stolen. When a user dials a specific telephone number (for example, 0800-123-456) using such a communication device, the user is connected to a server main body having a telephone listening function through a public network (PSTN). In the procedure (b), the server main body receives the user's call from a public network. In this embodiment, the server main body reads the execution form of the user's telephone number and retrieves the telephone number. Set to break. For example, if the user hears five rings of the phone, the server body hangs up and then proceeds to step (c). In step (c), the telephone number data is input to a database (DB) connected to the server main body. The database is, in the embodiment, a computer body having a computing function. In step (d), the database compares the obtained telephone number data with user data stored in the database to search whether the telephone number data matches a user who is already registered.

Among the preferred embodiments, the matching result of step (d) proceeds to step (e) in the database when the matching user data is found, and the user's account is opened from the original unlocked (locked) state. Set to change state. 3, after the user's account is set to the open state, the user can immediately execute step (g). Step (g) is a step in which the user enters a network server built by a network game provider through a personal computer facility and inputs a password of an account. In this embodiment, the network game server reads the account status of all users stored in the database by connecting to the database, thereby updating the account status of the user previously stored in the network game server. During one executable deployment, the network game server may be connected to the database at a predetermined time to proceed with updating the account status. When the user calls to open an account, the account is set to an open state, and after the network game server is connected to a database and updated, the user enters an account password in step (g). After the process, the user can enter the network game server using his account.

In an adopted embodiment, the user executes the process of making a call to the server main body in step (a) or connecting to the server main body via a representative telephone before preparing to use the particular account. The server main body proceeds to steps (b) and (c) in order and opens the account through data comparison control in steps (d) and (e) to the database. In addition, the user's personal computer (or a portable device having an online function such as an intelligent mobile phone) is substantially connected to the network game server, thereby completing the step (g) of entering an account password at the network game server. After that, the embodiment further includes step (h) to allow the network game server to determine whether the user's account is open. If yes, you are logged in to the network game server, and if it is the other, the network game server refuses to log in to the game.

1 and 3, after the user has finished using the account, the user dials a separate specific telephone number (for example, 0800-456-789) provided by the company in step (a), After the search and comparison process of b) ~ (d), the account can be locked again in step (e). After the account lockout process, even if someone finishes entering the account password in step (g) to steal the user's account and password, the account is locked and only the user has the user Since there is no description, it is not possible to execute the account opening process of step (a), and since the login is rejected during the inspection work process of step (h), the user's rights can be surely guaranteed.

Representatively, the present invention is an account anti-theft system with a communication mechanism. In contrast to the conventional network account, there is only an opening step of inputting an account password. The application includes a work process for activating an account. This can increase the security and trustworthiness of user accounts since they can never be decrypted or stolen by ordinary computer hackers or screen captures. In addition, when the user needs to temporarily use an account and the user cannot find the computer or the computer is difficult to use, the user may refer a family member or friend to the user's specific telephone number (ie user information recorded in the database). When you complete the process of opening an account by calling, the user-specific account is connected to the server and manipulated, so that the account usage is flexible, and this mechanism must be reconfirmed and activated by the user. Can improve.
