Description

Method for controlling information access in terminal and terminal for the same

The present invention relates to a security processing method of a computing system, and more particularly, to a method of controlling information access of a network-connected terminal.

In recent years, the Internet, which has become a part of life by more than 16 million people, has reported that 30% of teenagers, who are main users, have computer addiction, and there are no harmful sites that can be easily accessed through the Internet. There are a growing number of harmful sites that are flooded with over 10,000 stimulants such as drugs, indecent or violent content.

Therefore, a program for blocking access to harmful sites of adolescents has been developed and used, and such a program is a stand-alone software category of censoring software that operates by monitoring Internet access passages by a computer installation program by a user. Software-oriented development is underway, and most of the restrictions are based on unhealthy site lists, user-set words and lists.

The most common method of blocking harmful information is to install a harmful information blocking program on the user's computer to block internet sites containing harmful information such as obscene, drug, gambling, violence, and terrorism in advance. Here, the harmful information blocking program is a kind of filtering software, and is configured in a system against the harmful site by updating the harmful site information list through the Internet.

However, the above-mentioned harmful information blocking method is a method of blocking a word by searching for specific harmful words in the homepage, and blocking the use of words and the frequency of occurrence of the words. In this case, the so-called error / blocking rate of blocking a site that is not a harmful site is very high. For example, the word "SEX" is a word that can appear on educational sites, so there are many errors and limitations in how to search for and block harmful words.

In addition, the method of using the harmful information site database is a method of blocking a harmful site by determining whether or not it is a harmful site by requesting a uniform resource locator (URL) of a web site to a harmful information blocking database server. If you use this method, URLs for all sites will be sent to the server, so if the momentary traffic spikes, service overload may occur due to server overload, and continuous databaseization of all harmful sites in the world that occur every day will not be possible. In this case, the blocking rate is lowered due to the absence of information on new harmful sites, and there is a problem that the search of harmful sites by hand has a limitation in searching for new harmful sites.

Recently, the Ministry of Information and Communication and the government recognized the importance of the harmful environment of the Internet and began to publish the grading system for web sites and sanctions for other harmful sites. The demand for blocking harmful information is increasing in schools.

However, the above general harmful site blocking method suggests a blocking method for all users at once. In addition, it can only be used to block harmful sites existing on the Internet, and control of information existing inside a computer (disk, CD-ROM, removable disk, etc.) cannot be handled.

Therefore, since parents and educational institutions are effective user bases to prevent indiscriminate leakage of teen pornographic information from indiscriminate pornographic information, development of harmful information and security information blocking technologies in consideration of practical user aspects is urgently required.

In addition, there is a need for the development of a technology capable of monitoring a computer and immediately performing information blocking control when a real computer user such as a parent or a user who owns a computer actually uses a computer by another user.
