1 is an example of a network configuration diagram.

Referring to FIG. 1, in the network configuration diagram, the generating user terminal 100, the connecting user terminal 200, and the shortened URL server 300 are connected through a network.

Here, the generating user terminal 100 is a terminal of a user who requests to generate a shortened URL. The connecting user terminal 200 is a terminal of a user who requests to connect to a web page using a shortened URL.

The generating user terminal 100 and the connecting user terminal 200 may be a smart terminal that downloads, installs, and executes an SNS-related application or an application for generating a shortened URL.

The shortened URL server 300 shortens the long URL.

2 is an example of generating a shortened URL. As shown in FIG. 2, when the generating user terminal 100 attaches a long URL to the shortened URL generation window and clicks a URL shortened tab, the shortened URL server 300 randomly generates a shortened URL. The short URL has a structure such as http://me2.do/15flGM and http://me2.do/W23ntN , for example. As such, it is impossible to predict at all which source address is connected by the shortened URL alone.

Accordingly, there is a need for a method of generating a shortened URL so that a user requesting to connect to the webpage using the shortened URL can predict the content of the linked webpage. Hereinafter, a method of generating a shortened URL and a system supporting the same will be described in detail.

3 is a block diagram illustrating a shortened URL generation system according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a shortened URL generation and connection method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, the shortened URL generation system 300 includes a transceiver 310, a shortened URL generator 320, a storage 330, a list extractor 340, and a connection setup unit 350. .

The transceiver 310 transmits data to the generating user terminal 100 or the connecting user terminal 200 or receives data from the generating user terminal 100 or the connecting user terminal 200. For example, the transceiver 310 may receive at least one of an original address, a message, and an ID together with the shortened URL generation request from the generating user terminal 100. The transceiver 310 may receive a connection request to the web page corresponding to the shortened URL from the connection user terminal 200. In addition, the transceiver 310 may transmit a list corresponding to the original address corresponding to the shortened URL to the connected user terminal 200.

The shortened URL generator 320 generates a shortened URL using the original address received from the generating user terminal 100. The shortened URL generator 320 may randomly generate shortened URLs or generate them using various algorithms.

The storage unit 330 stores information related to shortened URL generation. For example, the storage unit 330 may map and store at least one shortened URL, an original address, and a message. The storage unit 330 may further store creator information. Here, the creator information may be an ID for identifying the creator. The storage unit 330 may further store authentication information of the generating user or the connecting user.

When the list extracting unit 340 receives the connection request for the shortened URL from the connected user terminal 200, the list extractor 340 extracts a list related to the original address corresponding to the shortened URL.

When the connection setting unit 350 finally receives a connection request from the connection user terminal 200 to the source address, the connection user terminal 200 processes the connection user terminal 200 to connect to the source address.

3 and 4, the generation user terminal 100 transmits a shortened URL generation request to the shortened URL generation server 300 (S400). In this case, the generating user terminal 100 may further transmit at least one of an original address, a message, and an ID to the shortened URL generating server 300 together with the shortened URL generating request. Here, the message refers to a message left by the creating user when generating the shortened URL. For example, the message may include content about the web page corresponding to the original address. The ID may be identification information such as an ID of the generating user. To this end, when the generating user terminal 100 accesses the shortened URL generating server 300, the shortened URL generating server 300 may expose a page for generating the shortened URL to the generating user terminal 100. 5 illustrates a page for generating a URL according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5, a page for generating a shortened URL may include a source address field, a message field, and an ID field. After inputting an original address, a message, and an ID through a page exposed to the generating user terminal 100, the shortened URL generating request may be delivered to the shortened URL generating server 300 by clicking the request tab.

The shortened URL generating server 300 generates a shortened URL corresponding to the original address received from the generating user terminal 100 (S410). In this case, the shortened URL may be randomly generated or generated using various algorithms.

The shortened URL generation server 300 transmits the shortened URL generated to the generating user terminal 100 (S420), and stores the generated shortened URL, a corresponding original address, and a message and ID received from the generating user terminal 100. (S430).

On the other hand, when receiving a connection request using the shortened URL from the connection user terminal 200 (S440), the shortened URL generation server 300 extracts a list associated with the original address corresponding to the shortened URL received the connection request (S450). ). For example, the shortened URL generating server 300 may extract a shortened URL list having the same original address as the shortened URL that is requested to be connected. The shortened URL list may include a message inputted by the generating user when generating the shortened URL and an ID of the generating user.

The shortened URL generation server 300 provides the extracted list to the connection user terminal 200 (S460). 6 is a list exposed to the connection user terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention. That is, the ID of the generating user who generated the shortened URL and the message input by the generating user when generating the shortened URL with respect to the same original address may be exposed in the form of a bulletin board.

When the connection user terminal 200 requests to connect to the source address exposed in the extracted list (S470), the shortened URL generation server 300 may process the connection user terminal 200 to be connected to the corresponding source address (S480). ).

As described above, according to one embodiment of the present invention, after exposing the message of the user who created the shortened URL to the connected user terminal 200 requesting the connection to the shortened URL, the terminal finally requests to connect to the original address. Accordingly, it is possible to minimize the possibility of linking to unwanted web pages from the point of view of the connecting user. In addition, the problem that the shortened URL is exploited for a phishing attack or a worm attack can be reduced.

The embodiments of the present invention described above are not implemented only by the apparatus and method, but may be implemented through a program for realizing the function corresponding to the configuration of the embodiment of the present invention or a recording medium on which the program is recorded.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments, It belongs to the scope of right.
