Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for the secure transmission of e-mails, comprising a sender-side input device, a receiver-side reading device and a telecommunications device coupling the input device to the reading device.
- a secure transmission of emails is typically carried out using encryption software that is installed on both the receiver side and the sender side.
- PGP method Peripheral Good Privacy
- a corresponding encryption software is installed on the receiver side and the receiver generates on his computer a so-called public key and a so-called private key.
- the public and non-secret keys are sent by the recipient to a sender of the email.
- the sender also installs the encryption software on his computer and carries out the encryption process using the public key transmitted by the recipient.
- the recipient decrypts the message using his private private key. After the decryption process has been carried out, the email can be read.
- the object of the present invention is to improve a method of the type mentioned in the introduction such that a transmission of encrypted emails is considerably simplified from the point of view of the user.
- This object is achieved in that a sender submits the email to a coordinator and the coordinator stores the email in a database ab ⁇ that the coordinator transmits a default ver ⁇ keyed SMS with a code word to a recipient of the email and that the recipient makes an Internet connection to the coordinator and, using the code word, reads the email in the database.
- a further object of the present invention is to design a device of the aforementioned type such that a simplified operation is supported.
- This object is achieved in that a provided with a database for storing the email coordinator is arranged in the field of telecommunications, which is provided with a Sendeeinrich ⁇ device for transmitting a codeword by SMS to a receiver.
- the inventive method and the corresponding device have the advantage that neither in the sender nor in the area of the receiver, the installation of an encryption software is required. Rather, the e-mail is only transmitted via a secure connection from the sender to the coordinator and kept here in a secure environment for reading by the recipient. This prevents that the email can be intercepted on unsecured Wegmunikationsver ⁇ connections.
- the transmission of the email from the sender to the coordinator is identified as secure mail.
- Secure handling is supported by the fact that the encrypted SMS is transmitted to a mobile phone of the recipient.
- Unauthorized access is prevented by transmitting the codeword from the receiver to the coordinator after the establishment of an Internet connection between the receiver and the coordinator and activating access to the stored email only following correct transmission of the codeword.
- Fig. 1 is a block diagram illustrating the implementation of the method and Fig. 2 is a block diagram for illustrating the device construction of the coordinator.
- a sender (1) via a telecommunication device (2) with a receiver (3) is connected.
- the area of the telecommunication device (2) is one with a database
- the coordinator (5) is via the Internet (6) with the receiver
- the coordinator (5) has a transmitting device (7) for transmitting standard-encoded SMS to a mobile phone (8) of the receiver (3).
- the sender (1) and the receiver (3) are typically designed as personal computers.
- the procedure is such that the sender
- the coordinator (5) stored in a secure environment. After the storage process has been carried out, the coordinator (5) transmits a standard SMS encrypted SMS with a password to the mobile (8) of the recipient (3). The coordinator (5) also transmits his e-mail address and an access address to the recipient via a standard unsecured e-mail
- the receiver (3) then establishes a secure SSL connection to the coordinator (5) and enters there his SMS received password.
- the receiver (3) can now read the email in the secured environment of the coordinator (5) and, if appropriate, file attachments via SSL connection securely transferred to its associated PC.
- neither the sender (1) nor the recipient (3) requires special hardware or software.
- the encryption of the code word transmitted to the mobile phone (8) takes place in accordance with an encryption customary in GSM transmission.
- a secure SSL connection is typically offered by all common Internet browsers.
- the required special hardware and software is installed exclusively in the area of the coordinator (5) and can be used by the sender (1) as well as by the receiver (3) without special knowledge or activities.
- FIG. 2 again structurally illustrates the functional structure in the region of the coordinator (5).
- the coordinator (5) is provided with a control device (9) which coordinates the data exchange with the sender (1) and the receiver (3) according to FIG. 1.
- the control device (9) is connected to the data bank (4) and the transmitting device (7).
- the control device (9) is connected to a security code generator (10) which generates the security code required for the transmission by SMS to the mobile phone (8).
- control device (9) is coupled to an analyzer (11) which, after establishing a connection between the receiver (3) and the coordinator (5), checks whether the receiver (3) coordinates to the coordinator (5) transmitted security code with the transmitted to the mobile phone (8) security code. Only in the case of a match is an access of the receiver (3) to the database (4) possible.
