Description

Pairing digital system and its provision method

The present invention relates to a pairing digital system and a method of providing the same. More particularly, when the pairing digital system has identification information of a right holder, the owner of the party can easily change or delete the holder identification information. To make it difficult for unauthorized owners to change or delete rights holder identification information, or to perform pairing or tagging with a paired system that is preset to pair with the digital system in order to perform a specific function or specific operation of the digital system. This not only enhances the security functions for the main functions and operations of the digital system, but also prevents unauthorized owners from using at least some of the functions or operations of the digital system in the event of unauthorized possession, loss or theft of the digital system. To a system and method that provides for locking.

With the development of information and communication technology, many digital systems (eg, PCs, tablets, navigation, music players, cameras, automotive digital systems, etc.) are widely used. In particular, with the development of IT technology, digital systems are becoming smaller and more converged. For example, in the case of a mobile communication terminal (eg, a mobile phone, a tablet PC, etc.), various functions such as a camera, an information storage device, a banking (payment, transfer, etc.) as well as the original communication function are performed in a complex manner. At the same time, the device is being miniaturized to a size large enough for users to carry through integration of devices.

As convergence of various functions is achieved, digital systems are not just providing convenience to users, but also becoming an important means of profoundly affecting users' lives. In addition, as the portability due to the miniaturization of digital systems is increased and expensive, the damage caused by the loss or theft of the digital system is serious, and the burden of loss or theft is increasing day by day. For example, if a user loses or is stolen a digital system that has a payment function or stores personal information, not only does he have to repurchase the expensive digital system but also cause serious damage to the user in relation to personal information and credit. can do. In addition, when important information such as phone numbers, memos, and schedules of acquaintances are stored in a portable digital system (eg, a mobile phone, a portable PC, etc.), the important information cannot be stored when the portable digital system is not carried. Is occurring frequently.

For these reasons, the importance or dependence of digital systems is increasing. However, there is no proper countermeasure against security, unjust possession, loss, or theft of information of the digital system.

The technical idea for solving some of these problems is the Korean registered patent "Digital system and its providing method" (two titles of the same title, registered number 10-1125708, 10-1130676) and the Korean patent pending It is disclosed in the application (Application No. 10-2012-0058302, "Digital system in which rights holder identification information is recorded, and a method of providing the same", "Previous Application"). The above patents and patent applications are intended to store information about the owners of digital systems, and technical ideas about functions to prevent theft or loss by preventing unauthorized users from randomly deleting or changing the information about party owners. to provide. This specification includes as references the description and technical spirit disclosed in the patents and the invention.

By the way, the digital system may be a system where a lot of used transactions are easy to transfer or easy to transfer to others. In this case, the technical spirit of the patents and the patented invention, which is devised to take a lot of effort and cost to delete or change the information on the legitimate owner, may have limitations on practicality.

Therefore, it is difficult for an unauthorized user to delete or change the information on the owner of the digital system, which is the technical idea of the present invention, to reduce the residual value and utilization value of the digital system, and to prevent theft or loss in advance. While maintaining the effect, there is a need for a technical idea such that a legitimate change of the digital system (eg, change or deletion of a party owner's information, entry of a new owner's information, etc.) is easily performed.

On the other hand, as digital systems become a part of life, security of software, such as contents stored and applications used, is becoming more important. The prior art has been a method of authenticating by accessing a password or pattern recognition for accessing security information or operating software. This conventional technology has a problem that security is not achieved when information such as password or pattern recognition is leaked. In addition, even if information such as passwords and pattern recognition has not been leaked, security problems may occur because the digital system has the information therein. In other words, it is recognized that it is not too difficult for a person having a certain level of knowledge of a digital system to illegally acquire a digital system and extract or decrypt authentication information therein. Therefore, security needs for not only digital system devices but also information stored in the digital system and software used are increasing, but the conventional technology for the security is very insufficient.

As such, in addition to writing, deleting, or changing information about the owner, as well as performing other specific functions or operations that the digital system can perform, unauthorized users use the digital system to perform specific functions or operations. The technical idea of preventing the user from performing a specific function or operation can be easily performed.

The technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is to make the party owners feel familiar with the digital system at all times by outputting information on the owner as voice information or display information whenever the digital system performs a specific operation or at regular intervals. In the event of a title conflict, loss or theft, it is to provide a digital system that allows a negative occupant to have psychological pressure to occupy or use the digital system. In addition, the present invention provides a system and a method for allowing a party user to easily delete and / or change information on the owner, while controlling the information on the owner to be difficult to delete or change.

In addition, a legitimate user can easily perform a specific function or operation of the digital system, while the authentication information such as password or pattern recognition of the digital system is leaked, or a password or Even if the authentication information is extracted or decrypted, a fraudulent user or an occupant is to provide a system and method for preventing a specific function or operation of the digital system from performing.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Like reference numerals in the drawings denote like elements.

Referring to FIG. 1, in order to implement a pairing digital system according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a pairing digital system 100 and a pair system 200 may be provided. Depending on the embodiment, a predetermined external system 300 may be further provided. The external system 300 may perform a specific function (eg, owner identification information) according to the technical spirit of the present invention even when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are not paired or tagged at least once. Correction of the first information to be included), execution control of specific software, and / or activation control of specific hardware included in the pairing digital system 100.

The pairing digital system 100 may communicate with the pair system 200 using a predetermined communication protocol, and include all types of data processing apparatuses having data processing capabilities capable of performing the functions defined herein. It can be defined to mean. For example, although the pairing digital system 100 is illustrated in the form of a mobile phone only in FIG. 1, a computer, a laptop, a tablet, an IPTV, a smart TV, a set-top box, a remote control, a music player, a home automation device, a vehicle digital system, and the like may be implemented. Examples may vary.

According to an embodiment, a predetermined communication device for implementing the technical idea of the present invention may be connected to the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 through a predetermined interface (for example, a USB interface). have. For example, when the pairing digital system 100 is a desktop PC, a predetermined communication device for implementing the technical idea of the present invention may be connected to the desktop, and the communication device connected to the desktop is connected to the technical idea of the present invention. It can also perform the function of the communication unit.

According to an example, the pairing digital system 100 may store first information including information about the owner. The first information may be output in various manners every time a predetermined specific operation is performed or every predetermined period. For example, the pairing digital system 100 may output the first information as corresponding voice information or may output the first information as predetermined display information. The information on the owner may be various information such as a name, an alias, a signature, and a contact that can identify the owner. The first information may be information about the owner itself or information including information about the owner.

For example, when the first information is the owner's name, the voice information (or display information) output by the digital system 100 may be voice information (or display information) corresponding to the owner's name. Or information including the name of the owner. For example, when the first information is 'Mike', the voice information (or display information) may be simply voice information (or display information) corresponding to 'Mike' or voice corresponding to 'This is Mike's phone'. Information (or display information).

When the first information is output as display information, the pairing digital system 100 may display the first information on a display device provided in the pairing digital system 100 at regular intervals or at all times.

As used herein, the term "owner" includes a person who has a right to use the pairing digital system 100 as a right holder and a user who has been properly authorized by the right holder. Can be used.

According to an exemplary embodiment, the pairing digital system 100 may operate in a plurality of modes, and may output voice information or display information corresponding to the first information only in at least one mode.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pairing digital system 100 may output voice information or display information corresponding to the first information in the normal mode. In this specification, the normal mode may mean a mode of a general use environment, not a mode classified as a special mode such as lost or stolen. The change from the normal mode to the special mode may be based on a control signal of a user or automatically determined whether the pairing digital system 100 meets a predetermined predetermined condition and based on a determination result. Such an example has been described in detail in the above-described Korean Patents, so detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In addition, the pairing digital system 100 may be a system that operates without distinction between a normal mode and a special mode. In this case, the pairing digital system 100 may also include voice information and / or display information corresponding to the first information. You can output

For example, the pairing digital system 100 may output preset first information as voice information whenever performing a specific operation. Alternatively, the voice information may be output whenever a specific time comes. For example, the specific operation may be an operation of powering on the digital system 100 or an operation of executing a specific application or function. Alternatively, the voice information may be output when a specific time is reached, such as a preset wake-up time or work time. For example, when the digital system 100 can install a predetermined application, the digital system 100 may be implemented to output first audio information corresponding to the first information every time the application is executed. Alternatively, voice information including the first information may be output whenever a specific function (eg, a payment function, a play function, etc.) is to be executed. For example, "OOO has been powered on.", "◇◇◇ is the wake up time.", "□□□ 's application is running." Various voice information such as may be output.

The first information may be stored in the pairing digital system 100. The owner may input the first information as text information through a text input method provided by the pairing digital system 100. Alternatively, when the pairing digital system 100 provides a predetermined voice recording function, the first information may be input through voice recording. Input of the first information may be possible in various ways. According to an example, the first information may not be input by the owner of the pairing digital system 100, but the first information may be previously input by another person. For example, the producer or distributor of the pairing digital system 100 may input the first information.

Whenever the pairing digital system 100 performs a specific operation which is set in advance (or at regular or regular periods or at the request of the user or in a situation set by the user), predetermined first information (for example, Information) may be output as voice information (or display information) so that a user other than the owner may feel burdened with holding or using the digital system 100. The specific operation may be an operation set by the user to directly output the first information, or may be a predetermined operation (eg, whenever performing a specific function or executing specific software) automatically set in the digital system 100. Each time or every time a power-on is performed). In addition, the situation set by the user may include, for example, a state of the digital system 100 that can be determined by the digital system 100, such as a situation in which the digital system 100 is in a predetermined position or out of a predetermined position. It may mean. As a result, according to the technical idea of the present invention, there is an effect that can block in advance the motivation for the illegal use of other users. In addition, even when used by the owner himself, the first information is repeatedly output or displayed on the screen, thereby making it possible to feel attachment or friendliness to the digital system 100.

Meanwhile, a fraudulent user may have a desire to delete the output of the first information or to arbitrarily change the first information. The technical purpose and effect of the present invention can be achieved only by making it impossible for such an illegal user to make an improper desire. Therefore, it is preferable that the technical configuration is made so that the deletion or change of the first information is not easy. On the other hand, if the deletion or change of the first information is implemented to not be easy for all users, inconvenience may occur when the owner of the pairing digital system 100 is changed by a fair transaction or transfer of rights. It can be counterproductive.

Therefore, a fraudulent user may not be able to access or modify the first information, while a political party user may need to make it easy to access or modify (eg, delete, change, record new information, etc.) of the first information. There is.

To this end, according to the spirit of the present invention, the pairing digital system 100 is in a pairing state with a predefined pair system 200 to be paired with the pairing digital system 100 or at least once tagging. Only when this is done, it is possible to control the access or correction of the first information.

Alternatively, only when a predetermined permission signal is received from the external system 300, the pairing digital system 100 may be controlled to allow access or correction of the first information. The permission signal is a signal that is output from the external system 300 to the pairing digital system 100 after the pairing digital system 100 passes a predetermined authentication procedure through the external system 300 and the authentication succeeds. Can be.

Therefore, the user can access the first information or modify the first information only when both the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are occupied. Even if the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are not paired or tagged at least once, a user authenticated through the external system 300 may be allowed to access or modify the first information. have.

For example, the pairing digital system 100 may request permission from the external system 300 to perform a specific function such as access or modification of the first information. Then, the external system 300 may request predetermined authentication information from the pairing digital system 100. The authentication information may be information previously stored in the external system 300. The authentication information may be, for example, a password registered by the user, a secret pattern, or predetermined information known only to the user (eg, an address, a social security number, etc.).

The authentication information may be different from predetermined authentication information stored in the pairing digital system 100. In any case, since the separate authentication information capable of authenticating a party user is stored in the external system 300, the pairing digital system 100 receives an illegal attack and thus the authentication stored in the pairing digital system 100. Even if the information is exposed, there is an effect that access or correction of the first information may not be allowed.

The external system 300 may be, for example, a mobile communication company system when the pairing digital system 100 is a mobile communication terminal. However, the external system 300 is not limited thereto, and any external system capable of authenticating a user, such as an accredited certification authority, may be used. It may be the external system 300. If the authentication is successful, the external system 300 may transmit a predetermined permission signal to the pairing digital system 100.

The controller 110 may receive a permission signal from the external system 300, and when the permission signal is received, access or modification of the first information as described above, execution of specific software, and / or specific hardware Can be activated.

The pairing state may be a state in which the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are in a communicable state, or may communicate with each other while satisfying a predetermined criterion (eg, when the strength of the signal being communicated is greater than or equal to a certain intensity). have. Tagging may be performed such that the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are in proximity to each other within a predetermined distance (eg, 10 cm) capable of performing contactless RF communication, such as Near Field Communication (NFC) communication. It may mean the act or state being. If at least the user of the pairing digital system 100 currently possesses the pairing system 200, the pairing digital system 100 and the pairing system 200 may be in a pairing state such that the pairing digital system 100 ) And the pair system 200 may be implemented. Alternatively, in order to perform tagging, a user of the pairing digital system 100 may also need to carry the pairing system 200.

As described above, according to the spirit of the present invention, the pairing digital system 100 may be stored in an area in which the first information is stored only when it is estimated that the user of the pairing digital system 100 also possesses the pair system 200. It may be implemented to access or modify or change the first information. Of course, even when the permission signal through the external system 300 is received as described above, the first information may be modified or changed.

In the case of a pairing state or at least once tagging or when the permission signal is received, the modification or access of the first information, as well as the execution of specific software, may be controlled, or the activation of specific hardware may be controlled.

In the meantime, when the pairing state or the case where tagging is performed at least once will be described, the party user may assume that the pair system 200 is possessed. Then, the user of the political party can modify the first information as long as he or she possesses the pair system 200 (or simply perform a simple tagging action), so that the first information can be easily modified. On the other hand, a fraudulent user cannot modify the first information unless both of the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are held. The pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may generally be stored or held by a user individually, so that the probability of losing or theft of the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 simultaneously is Since it is hardly generated, the technical idea of the present invention can be easily implemented.

Furthermore, as will be described later, according to the spirit of the present invention, when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are separated by a predetermined distance or more, the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system ( 200 may output a notification signal for notifying the user of this. Therefore, the risk of loss or theft of either the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200 can be prevented in advance.

The pair system 200 may be a system or a device capable of communicating with the digital system 100. For example, it may be implemented as an IC card (or smart card) 201 which does not have its own power source but can store predetermined information and perform simple calculation. For example, the pair system 200 has a unique computing power and storage capacity, and a system in which a predetermined RF communication device for the technical idea of the present invention is added to an IC card or a smart card through which a user can perform a financial transaction. Can be.

Alternatively, the pair system 200 may be a data processing system (eg, 202) having a power source and capable of data processing. A smart phone or tablet PC or a card-type OTP card having a power source, various types of smart cards with a power source, or the like may be implemented as the pair system 200.

According to an implementation example of the pair system 200, an implementation example of a communication protocol in which the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform communication may vary.

According to an embodiment, the pair system 200 may be a system provided to maintain or tag a pairing state with the pairing digital system 100. In this case, the pair system 200 may be implemented by only a communication device capable of communicating with the pairing digital system 100.

For example, the pair system 200 may be implemented as a system (for example, reference numeral 220 of FIG. 8) implemented to have only a minimum function for pairing with the pairing digital system 100, and the pair system 200 may be an RF tag or a communication device itself that includes a predetermined communication device (eg, an RF communication device (antenna, etc.)). Of course, the RF tag or communication device (eg, RF communication device, etc.) may be provided with a predetermined storage device (eg, EEPROM, etc.) and / or an IC chip.

In this case, the pair system 200 may be implemented to attach or insert the pair system 200 to a target object such as a predetermined object or device. To this end, the pair system 200 may have a predetermined adhesive surface or may have a housing to be fitted to the target object. The target object may be variously determined by a user's selection.

Alternatively, the pair system 200 may be a system in which a communication device (for example, an RF communication device) for the pairing function is embedded in an object made for a separate function. For example, a wide variety of embodiments may be possible, such as a USB storage device, a security card, an OTP generator, a watch, a bracelet, and a smart card. In any case, the pair system 200 may be implemented in a wide variety of forms as long as it includes a communication device capable of pairing with the digital system 100.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a predetermined communication device for implementing the technical idea of the present invention is attached to a conventional OTP generating device, a security card, an IC card, a credit card, a membership card, and the like by performing a function defined herein. Pair system 200 may be implemented.

According to another embodiment, the pair system 200 may store predetermined information for implementing the technical idea of the present invention, and transmit the information to the pairing digital system 100 in a predetermined manner. It may be a system.

The first information stored in the pairing digital system 100 may be modified (eg, recorded, deleted, or changed) only through a specific application defined in advance. In this case, all or part of the application may be stored in the pair system 200. According to an embodiment, when predetermined key information (eg, authentication information such as serial number and password) is required to execute the application, the key information may be stored in the pair system 200. Therefore, when information necessary for executing the application, that is, necessary information (at least part of the application and / or the key information) is stored in the pair system 200, pairing with the pairing digital system 100. State or necessary information stored in the pair system 200 may be transmitted to the pairing digital system 100 after at least one tagging is performed.

Such an embodiment may have higher security than the case where the pair system 200 includes only a function of forming a pair with the pairing digital system 100. For example, when all the necessary information is stored in the pairing digital system 100 and the application is executed when it is simply paired with the pairing system 200 or tagging is performed by a malicious attacker (for example, a hacker or the like). There may be a risk that the application may run even if no pairing state or tagging is performed. However, when at least some of the necessary information is stored in the pair system 200, even if a malicious attacker does not possess the pair system 200, the application may not be executed.

This technical concept may be applied to any application that may be executed in the pairing digital system 100 as well as an application for correcting the first information stored in the pairing digital system 100. In particular, it may be desirable to apply to applications that need to have a high security level, such as financial transactions, e-commerce, or identity authentication. In some implementations, not only the execution of the application but also a function provided by the application may be controlled by the pair system 200. That is, some of the various functions provided by the application may be executed only after the pair system 200 and the pairing digital system 100 are paired or tagged at least once.

For example, in the case where the application is a financial transaction application, a conventional authentication procedure such as an accredited certificate is not required for simple inquiry of functions provided by the application, and a certain authentication procedure is required when performing the financial transaction function. . Similarly, when the technical idea of the present invention is applied to a financial transaction, some functions that may have a relatively low security level such as simple information inquiry among functions provided by the application are paired with the pair system 200 or tagged at least once. This can be executed even if not, the ability to be relatively high security, such as transfer, payment, order is implemented to be executed only when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 is paired or tagged at least once May be

In addition, the technical spirit of the present invention may be applied to any hardware configuration provided in the pairing digital system 100 as well as an application that may be executed in the pairing digital system 100. For example, specific hardware included in the pairing digital system 100 may be enabled when the pairing system 200 and the pairing digital system 100 are paired or tagged at least once. Alternatively, a specific function of the specific hardware may be enabled when the pairing system 200 and the pairing digital system 100 are paired or tagged at least once. To this end, the pairing digital system 100 may change the setting of the software for driving the specific hardware or may drive different software depending on whether the pairing system 200 is paired or tagged at least once. . According to an embodiment, the pairing digital system 100 itself may be enabled, and in this case, setting of an operating system of the pairing digital system 100 may be controlled.

As a result, according to the spirit of the present invention, the pairing digital system 100 may perform a specific function or application (or function provided by the application) that the pairing digital system 100 may perform by the pair system 200. May be controlled and / or whether specific hardware (or a function provided by specific hardware) is executed.

Referring to FIG. 2, the pairing digital system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a controller 110 and a storage 120. The pairing digital system 100 may further include a communication unit 130 and / or an alarm unit 140.

The controller 110 may drive a predetermined application installed in the pairing digital system 100 or may drive an OS of the pairing digital system 100 to carry out the technical spirit of the present invention. That is, the pairing digital system 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention may install a predetermined application to implement the technical idea of the present invention, or may be implemented by the firmware of the pairing digital system 100 or the OS itself. have.

Configurations such as the control unit 110, the storage unit 120, the communication unit 130, and / or the alarm unit 140 in the present specification, the hardware for performing the technical idea of the present invention and the software for driving the hardware It can mean a functional and structural combination of. For example, each of the components may mean a logical unit of a predetermined code and a hardware resource for performing the predetermined code, and necessarily means a physically connected code, or one or a specific number of hardware. It does not mean that can be easily inferred by the average expert in the art. Thus, each of these configurations refers to a combination of hardware and software that performs the functions defined herein, and does not imply any particular physical configuration.

The control unit 110 may function and / or resources of other components (eg, the storage unit 120, the communication unit 130, and / or the alarm unit 140, etc.) included in the digital system 100. Can be controlled.

As described above, the controller 110 controls the voice output device (eg, a speaker) or the display device included in the pairing digital system 100 to receive first information including information on the owner. Can be output as display information. In addition, the controller 110 may determine whether the communication unit 130 and the pair system 200 are paired or at least once tagged. In addition, a predetermined security procedure may be performed as described below. When the security procedure receives necessary information (eg, at least a part of the application and / or at least a part of the key information) corresponding to a predetermined application from the pair system 200, the received necessary information and / or received When the application is generated based on the necessary information, a function of deleting the application generated by the pair digital system 100 may be performed. Of course, this security procedure may be performed after the application performs a predetermined function.

The reason why the security procedure is necessary is that if the received necessary information or the generated application remains in the pairing digital system 100, the pairing digital system 100 may not be paired or tagged at least once. There is also a risk that the application will run, and that information may be exposed.

The storage unit 120 may store the first information. The first information may be stored in a predetermined protection area. The protection area may be an area that is implemented to prevent access (or writing, deletion, or change) of the protection area except for a previously authorized application. The controller 110 may monitor an I / O call (eg, a message, a request, etc.) of the protection area to protect the information stored in the protection area. In addition, only an authorized application (or process) may access the protection area and / or modify the protection area.

In addition, the storage unit 120 may store an application or other software (eg, OS, firmware, etc.) that may be executed in the pairing digital system 100. The storage unit 120 may mean a combination of at least one storage device provided in the pairing digital system 100.

The communication unit 130 may communicate with the pair system 200. The communication unit 130 may be implemented to communicate only with the pair system 200 forming a pair with the pairing digital system 100. Then, the communication unit 130 may perform pairing with the pairing system 200 forming a pair with the pairing digital system 100 or at least once tagging to perform a function or operation defined in the present invention. .

Pair formation may mean a series of processes or procedures in which the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are set to form a pair.

The pair system 200 may be a system determined by the manufacturer or distributor of the pair system 200 or the pairing digital system 100 to be paired with a specific pairing digital system 100 in advance or by a user. Optionally, the system may be implemented to be paired with the digital system.

For example, the manufacturer of the pairing digital system 100 may determine the pair system 200 that may be paired with the pairing digital system 100 in advance. According to an embodiment, a manufacturer or a distributor of the pairing digital system 100 may provide a tag device capable of pairing with the digital system 100. When the user attaches the tag device to a predetermined object, The object to which the tag device is attached may be implemented as the pair system. Alternatively, a user may select the pair system 200 to pair with the pairing digital system 100.

According to one embodiment, the pair system 200 may be a financial transaction means that can be distributed by a predetermined financial institution. For example, a financial institution that operates a financial transaction system may implement a credit card, an OTP card, a security card, etc. as the pair system 200 and issue them to a user. Alternatively, a point card or a membership card provided to a user by a mobile communication company may be implemented by the pair system 200.

In any case, pair formation may be performed by storing identification information identifying the pairing digital system 100 or the pairing system 200 or the pairing digital system 100 to which the pairing system 200 pairs. Can be. This procedure can be defined as a pair formation procedure. When the pair formation procedure is performed, the pair authentication procedure may be performed before the pairing is formed to implement the technical spirit of the present invention.

Therefore, the pair forming procedure may include a process of receiving the identification information of the pairing system 200 or the pairing digital system 100 by the pairing digital system 100 or the pairing system 200. That is, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform the pair forming procedure through direct communication (for example, various RF communication or NFC communication). According to an embodiment, the pair forming procedure may be performed by a user through the application or software (eg, an OS) to the digital system 100 or the pair system 200 through the pair system 200 or the digital system ( It may also be performed by inputting the identification information of 100).

Of course, the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200 may store identification information of the pairing system 200 or the pairing digital system 100, which forms a pair in advance, and the information may not be changed. have.

On the other hand, when the pair system 200 is implemented so that the user can be attached or inserted into a target object, such as a predetermined object arbitrarily, it is difficult for others to recognize what the target object is the pair system 200 There is also an effect that can prevent the loss or theft of security.

In addition, according to the technical idea of the present invention, in order to give an alarm signal to a user when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are separated by a predetermined distance or more, the secure digital system and the pair system are normally paired (described later). In the present invention, this may be referred to as an 'alarm pairing state'. Then, when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 attempt to acquire predetermined information through pairing, the pair authentication process is performed in advance between the two systems forming the pair so that the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 can obtain information more efficiently. In addition to obtaining it, there is also an effect that can prevent the loss or theft itself of the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200.

Meanwhile, unlike the alarm pairing state, pairing may be performed during NFC communication, that is, tagging.

Whether or not the paired state may be determined according to whether a communication state between the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 satisfies a predetermined criterion. The communication state may depend on the distance between the digital system 100 and the pair system 200.

The pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform wireless communication (eg, RF communication). Therefore, the communication environment between the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may be further affected. In the present specification, since the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 assume a daily living environment of a person, the communication state dominates the distance between the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200. Can be assumed to be affected. Of course, when there is an object that can interfere with the wireless communication between the pair system 200 or the pairing digital system 100, even if the distance is close enough may not be paired.

When the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired, for example, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform communication. Alternatively, even when communication is performed, it may mean that a signal having a predetermined size or more may be transmitted to the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200. That is, in a general communication environment, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 exist within a communication distance that can communicate with each other, or when they exist within a predetermined distance shorter than the communication distance. can do.

Meanwhile, communication between the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may be performed in various ways. And it is well known that in this manner, the distance and / or environment in which pairing is possible may vary.

Communication between the communication unit 130 and the pair system 200 provided in the pairing digital system 100 may be, for example, various embodiments, such as Bluetooth, NFC, infrared communication, and optical communication. In addition, a communication device for such communication may be provided in the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200, respectively.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform RF communication. For example, the digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform communication using a wireless standard protocol such as Bluetooth, Zigbee, or the like. Of course, when performing Bluetooth communication, the pair system 200 may also have its own power supply or may be a system that can receive power from the outside. Meanwhile, in the case of Zigbee communication, there may be an advantage that communication is possible at a lower power than Bluetooth. In addition, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform various short range wireless communication (for example, IrDA, UWB, etc.) according to an embodiment, and the pairing digital system 100 according to the type of wireless communication. And the pair system 200 may be provided with a predetermined configuration for the environment required for the corresponding wireless communication.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pair system 200 may be a system driven by an RF signal output from the pairing digital system 100 without its own power supply. That is, RFID communication or NFC communication may be performed. For example, the pair system 200 may be implemented as an RFID tag or a predetermined device including the RFID tag. In this case, the pairing digital system 100 may serve as a reader capable of communicating with the RFID tag. Then, the pairing digital system 100 may output a predetermined RF signal to search the pair system 200 or receive predetermined information stored in the pair system 200. In addition, the communication distance between the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may vary according to the output power of the pairing digital system 100.

In general, the pair system 200 may be implemented to be carried in a user's wallet. Then, when the user possesses the pairing digital system 100, a communication protocol capable of performing contactless communication with the pair system 200 located in the wallet may be selected to implement the technical idea of the present invention. . In addition, it is preferable that a configuration to which such a communication protocol is applicable may be provided in the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200.

According to an embodiment, the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 may communicate using a plurality of different communication protocols. For example, the communication unit 130 included in the pairing digital system 100 may include a first communication module 131 and a second communication module 132. For example, as described below, the first communication module 131 may be a communication means for performing an alarm pairing function, and the second communication module 132 may be a communication means for obtaining security information. Of course, a first communication device 221 and a second communication device 222 corresponding to each of the first communication module 131 and the second communication module 132 may be provided in the pair system 200. .

The first communication module 131 may be a communication means having a longer communication distance than the second communication module 132. When the first communication module 131 and the first communication device 221 provided in the pair system 200 maintain a pairing state and are in a non-pairing state, for example, the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair. The system 200 may output a predetermined alarm signal. To this end, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may each further include an alarm unit 140. Alternatively, the distance between the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may be determined according to the communication state between the first communication module 131 and the first communication device 221. When the distance between 100 and 200 is greater than a predetermined distance, an alarm signal may be output. Of course, it may be determined that the pairing state only when the two

systems

100 and 200 exist within the predetermined distance even within the communicable distance.

As such, when the first communication module 131 and the first communication device 221 periodically or continuously determine whether they are in a pairing state, and determine that they are separated from each other by a non-pairing state or a predetermined distance, that is, an alarm output condition is It can be used as a means for determining whether or not.

Meanwhile, even when the first communication module 120 and the first communication device 221 are provided as means for alarm pairing, the first communication module 120 and the first communication device 221 are viewed through the first communication module 120 and the first communication device 221. Predetermined information (for example, necessary information) for implementing the technical idea of the invention can be transmitted or received more easily. That is, since the first communication module 120 and the first communication device 221 searches for a system to be paired to determine whether or not a pairing state, the security information is not required to perform a separate pair formation procedure. There is an effect that can transmit and receive.

According to another embodiment, the first communication module 131 and the first communication device 221 are only involved in performing an alarm pairing function, and the second communication module 132 and the second communication device 222. May be used to transmit and receive necessary information. That is, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform communication through different communication protocols. In this case, it may be assumed that communication through the different communication protocols is free of collisions. Alternatively, the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 may further include a predetermined means for avoiding a collision even when a collision occurs. In the present specification, in order to emphasize the technical features of the present invention, two

systems

100 and 200 will not consider a collision when a communication is to be made or a technical idea for avoiding the same.

A first communication protocol, that is, a communication protocol performed by the first communication module 131 and the first communication device 221 may be a second communication protocol, that is, the second communication module 132 and the second communication device 222. It may be a protocol capable of performing a relatively long distance communication compared to the communication protocol performed by). According to an embodiment, the first communication protocol may be a protocol for relatively long communication such as Bluetooth, Zigbee, etc., and the second communication protocol may be a communication protocol for NFC (including RFID communication) communication.

This is because the first communication protocol is for alarm pairing and is a protocol for determining that the pairing digital system 100 and the pairing system 200 are together within a predetermined distance, and the radius thereof is several meters. On the other hand, the second communication protocol is for exchanging information, since it may be desirable for the two

systems

100 and 200 to be closer together for information exchange.

In addition, when the second communication protocol is NFC, it may not be necessary to perform a separate pair formation procedure or pair authentication procedure again for information exchange, and information exchange may be performed immediately through tagging.

In addition, there is an effect that the target to communicate with the second communication protocol can be specified to the pair system 200 is performing communication with the first communication protocol. That is, the pair system 200 that can communicate through the second communication protocol may be limited to the pair system 200 in which pairing is maintained through the first communication protocol. For example, the pair system 200 performing communication through a first communication protocol records information for identifying the same, and the second communication module 132 communicates only with the pair system 200 in which the information is recorded. You can also do

In any case, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may include one communication means, and the communication means may perform an alarm pairing function and / or an information exchange function. Alternatively, each of the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may include a plurality of communication means, one communication means performs an alarm pairing function, and the other may perform an information exchange function. .

According to the technical idea of the present invention, a user can obtain security information through the pairing digital system 100 without taking out the pair system 200 from the wallet. Acquiring such security information may be possible only when a pairing state is maintained or when at least one tagging is performed. In the state where the pairing state is maintained, the user may make a predetermined input or request, and then necessary information may be obtained. Alternatively, tagging itself may be treated as an act of requesting the necessary information. The pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may determine whether a pairing state is maintained while periodically or continuously communicating with each other, and the pairing digital system 100 and the pairing digital system 100 only when a pairing is required. The pair system 200 may be paired through a predetermined pair forming procedure and / or pair authentication procedure.

On the other hand, according to the technical idea of the present invention, the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200 is when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 is far apart by a predetermined distance or a non-pairing state When the alarm output condition is satisfied (hereinafter, when the alarm output condition is satisfied), a predetermined alarm signal can be output. In addition, in the present invention, the pairing state is maintained, and when the alarm output condition is satisfied, the predetermined alarm signal is defined as an 'alarm pairing' function. The alarm signal may be a predetermined voice signal, a visual signal using a lamp or predetermined display information, or may be a tactile signal such as a vibration.

Through this, there is an effect that a legitimate user may flicker and reduce the risk of moving or losing the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200 without leaving it. Of course, there is also an effect that can reduce the probability of being stolen by others.

On the other hand, when a legitimate user intentionally wants to carry only one of the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200, the pairing digital system may be turned off or disabled to output the alarm signal. 100 or the pair system 200 may be implemented.

'Alarm pairing' according to an embodiment of the inventive concept is based on the premise that the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are normally paired. That is, the pairing digital system 100 may output a predetermined alarm signal when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are separated from each other by a predetermined distance or more, that is, in a non-pairing state. It is assumed that the pair system 200 and the pairing state. Therefore, a pair authentication procedure (that is, a procedure of authenticating whether a system is specified as a pair by a pair formation procedure) for the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200 to obtain necessary information may be omitted and the pairing may be performed. The necessary information may be acquired by a simple method such as a signal reception method through a specific button of the digital system 100 or the pair system 200.

In addition, acquiring the necessary information in the 'alarm pairing' state does not require a pairing formation procedure between the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200, thereby obtaining a very efficient effect in terms of speed and effectiveness of the present invention. It can be said that greatly improves. This difference in effectiveness is essentially in the case of 'alarm pairing', compared to maintaining the pairing state continuously (or periodically in very short time units), in order to simply obtain necessary information from the pairing digital system 100 and the The pairing system 200 may be referred to as being generated because the pairing is performed once or once.

According to an embodiment, i.e., in accordance with the manner in which the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 communicate, a user may designate a pair to pair the pairing digital system 100 with the pair system 200. Positioning the pairing digital system 100 in the pair system 200 within a distance, or positioning the pairing system 200 within a predetermined distance of the pairing digital system 100. It may be. For example, the pairing digital system 100 may include a near field communication (NFC) chip, and the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform NFC communication. In this case, the user may perform pairing by locating the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 within a predetermined distance (eg, 10 cm), that is, tagging.

For example, a user may bring the pairing digital system 100 close to his or her wallet. That is, tagging can be performed. Then, the pairing digital system 100 is paired with the pair system 200 in the wallet, at which time predetermined information for implementing the technical idea of the present invention can be exchanged.

In addition, the pairing digital system 100 may finally acquire necessary information only by performing a plurality of tagging. That is, some of the processes necessary to obtain the necessary information during or after each tagging may be performed sequentially.

For example, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may be tagged a plurality of times a predetermined number of times, and finally necessary information may be transmitted from the pair system 200 to the pairing digital system 100. . For example, when tagging once, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform a pair authentication procedure for authenticating whether the pairing system is paired with each other. After the tagging is performed again, predetermined necessary information stored in the pairing system 200 may be transmitted to the pairing digital system 100.

The process to be performed in order for the pairing digital system 100 to obtain necessary information (eg, at least a part of a specific application or at least a part of key information) may be performed in a plurality of times, and may be performed in a plurality of times. The process to be divided may be performed each time a plurality of tagging is performed. Alternatively, all of the plurality of processes may be performed while the last tagging is performed.

Meanwhile, the pairing digital system 100 may further include an alarm unit 140. The pair system 200 may further include a predetermined alarm device (not shown). The alarm unit 130 or the alarm device (not shown) may output a predetermined alarm signal. The alarm signal may be a signal for notifying the user when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 fall more than a predetermined distance. The alarm signal may be a voice signal, but may be implemented as various types of signals for allowing a user to recognize that the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are separated by a predetermined distance or more.

Referring to FIG. 3, a pair forming procedure may be performed by directly inputting identification information of a pairing system to the pairing digital system 100 or the pairing system 200.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a predetermined application 10 for implementing the technical idea of the present invention may be installed in the pairing digital system 100. The application may be downloaded from a predetermined web server operated by the provider or utilization agent of the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200.

The user may execute the application 10, and then the UI as shown in FIG. 3 may be provided to the user. Then, the user may input identification information of the pair system 200 to be paired with the pairing digital system 100 through the UI. The input identification information may be stored in a predetermined storage device, and the communication module 120 may check the stored identification information.

For example, there may be a case where the pairing digital system 100 is a mobile phone and the pair system 200 is a smart card that can be paired with the pairing digital system 100. In this case, the pairing digital system 100 may download the application 10 to a web site of a card company or a financial institution that provides the smart card or from a predetermined app store. Then, the user of the pairing digital system 100 may execute the pairing procedure by executing the application 10 and inputting identification information of the smart card.

In some implementations, the pair system 200 may also be a system capable of driving a predetermined application. In this case, the pair forming procedure may be performed by inputting identification information of the pairing digital system 100 through a predetermined application installed and executed in the pair system 200.

When the pair forming procedure is performed by the user as described above, the user may select the pair system 200 to be paired with his or her pairing digital system 100, and the pair system 200 capable of implementing the technical idea of the present invention. In the case of having a plurality of pairs), the pair system 200 that forms a pair with the pairing digital system 100 may be changed, or a plurality of pairs may be used as a pair system.

Meanwhile, the pairing system may be determined in advance by the provider of the pairing digital system 100 or the pairing system 200. In this case, information about the pair system 200 is stored in advance in the pairing digital system 100 or information about the pairing digital system 100 is stored in the pair system 200 in advance and sold to the user. Or in circulation. According to an embodiment, the provider sells or distributes the pairing system 200 (or the digital system 100) together while selling or distributing the pairing digital system 100 (or the pair system 200) to a user. can do. In particular, the clouding system may manage the customer or the community, or even more, in the case of manufacturers or distributors who want to proceed with the authentication or payment-related business using the technical idea of the present invention. In addition, when alarm pairing is performed first and pairing for acquiring necessary information according to the spirit of the present invention is performed in the alarm pairing state, the pairing system is a pair of the digital system 100 and the pair system 200. It is more likely that it is predetermined at this distribution or manufacturing stage.

Meanwhile, in order to perform a pair forming procedure, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may communicate with each other. For example, in order to perform the pair formation procedure, a user may input a predetermined signal requesting the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200 to perform the pair formation procedure in advance. When such a signal is input, the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200 may know in advance that a pair forming procedure is performed. Thereafter, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may communicate with each other. Then, the pairing digital system 100 may receive identification information for identifying the pair system 200 from the pair system 200. According to an embodiment, the pairing digital system 100 may transmit identification information of the pairing digital system 100 to the pair system 200. Alternatively, both processes may be performed. Then, the transmitted identification information of the pair system 200 or identification information of the pairing digital system 100 may be recorded in the pairing digital system 100 or the pair system 200, respectively.

As such, when identification information of another system to be paired is recorded in one system, the pair formation procedure may be completed. After the pair formation procedure is completed, the pairing digital system 100 (or the pair system 200) communicates with the pair system 200 (or the digital system 100) corresponding to the identification information recorded therein. If this is possible, pairing may be possible within a certain distance, or when tagging.

Of course, in order to be paired, a pair authentication procedure for determining whether a pair is a paired system may be performed in the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200, respectively.

As such, if the pair forming procedure is performed and if necessary, the pair authentication procedure is further performed, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may be in a pairing state. Or tagging may be performed at least once. Then, as described above, a specific function that may be performed in the pairing digital system 100 may be performed. That is, the specific function may be performed when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or tagged at least once.

An example of the case where the specific function is a correction function of the first information is illustrated in FIGS. 4 to 5.

4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a manner in which a pairing digital system protects information on an owner according to an embodiment of the present invention. In addition, FIG. 5 is a diagram for describing a method in which a pairing digital system can delete or change information on an owner according to an exemplary embodiment.

First, referring to FIG. 4, the controller 110 may include at least one first information (eg, first owner information and second owner information) in a predetermined protection area 121 included in the storage 120. Can be stored. That is, according to an embodiment, the pairing digital system 100 may additionally store information on the new owner without deleting or changing the information on the existing owner whenever the owner is changed. In this case, the protection area 121 may perform the same function as a kind of register of the pairing digital system 100. In this case, information on a plurality of owners stored in the protection area 121, that is, information marking information on the current owner among the first information may be further stored. Depending on the implementation, the last stored first information may be treated as information about the current owner.

The controller 110 may monitor an I / O call (eg, a message, a request, etc.) requesting access to the protection area 121 among various processes activated in the pairing digital system 100. The controller 110 may store information about the predetermined authorized process 20 (or information about an application). The controller 110 may monitor the I / O call and determine whether a pre-authorized process 20 approaches the protection area 121 and / or whether to modify the protection area 121. have. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the controller 110 may determine whether the call is from an authorized process 20 by hooking the I / O call. Then, the controller 110 may selectively process the I / O call (ie, perform an operation corresponding to an actual I / O call) or invalidate the I / O call. In order to process normally, the controller 110 may output a new I / O call for receiving a call result to the process 20. Alternatively, a null signal or no response may be output to the process 20 to invalidate the I / O call output from the process 20.

As a result, the controller 110 may selectively allow the request to modify the protection area 121 by accessing the protection area 121. In this case, the controller 110 is intended to modify the protection area 121 outputted from any process when the communication unit 130 and the pair system 200 are not in a paired state or when tagging is not performed at least once. You may not allow a request. In addition, only when the communication unit 130 and the pair system 200 are in a paired state or tagging is performed at least once, the request for modification of the protection region 121 output from the specific process 20 may be selectively allowed. .

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the controller 110 may be implemented such that any process can be modified in the protection area 121 when the pair system 200 is in a paired state or when tagging is performed at least once. . However, for higher security, in this case, the protection area 121 may be modified only by a specific process, that is, a previously authorized application.

In addition, the pre-authorized application may be pre-stored in the pairing digital system 100. However, information necessary for the execution of the application, that is, necessary information, may be stored in the pair system 200. The necessary information may mean information necessary for the execution of the application. The necessary information may be, for example, all or part of the software code of the application. In other words, the application is not executed if all or part of the code of the application is missing. In some implementations, some key information may be required to execute the application. For example, an application may be executed when a password, a serial number, or the like is input. In this case, at least part of the key information may be the necessary information.

Referring to FIG. 5, the pairing digital system 100 may be implemented such that modification (recording, deletion, and / or change) of the first information is performed only through a predetermined application 30. Then, all of the necessary information for executing the application 30 must be stored in the pairing digital system 100, so that the application 30 can be executed in the pairing digital system 100.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the necessary information includes at least all of the code of the application (30). In some embodiments, key information may be further included in the necessary information.

All of the necessary information may be previously stored in the pairing digital system 100. In such a case, the controller 110 may determine whether the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or tagged at least once, and execute the application 30 according to the determination result. Then, the user may modify the first information through the application 30. When the application 30 is executed at least once, the controller 110 may execute the application 30 only within a predetermined time after being tagged at least once.

According to another embodiment, at least some of the necessary information may be stored in the pair system 200. Then, the controller 110 determines whether the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are in a pairing state as shown in FIG. 5 (S10). 200 may receive necessary information stored in the pair system 200 (S11). Then, the control unit 110 may store the received necessary information in the storage unit 120. If necessary, the controller 110 may combine the information received from the pair system 200 with information previously stored in the pairing digital system 100 to generate the application code or generate the key information. Then, the controller 110 may execute the application 30. Of course, the controller 110 may determine whether tagging has been performed at least once (S20), and may receive the necessary information from the pair system 200 according to the determination result (S21).

As described above, when at least some of the information necessary for the application to be executed is stored in the pair system 200, the case where the pairing digital system 100 executes the application 30 even if attacked by a hacking or the like is fundamental. There is an effect that can be blocked.

In order to maintain such an effect, the controller 110 may further perform a predetermined security procedure. That is, the information generated from the pair system 200 or information generated based on the received information (for example, application code or key information) for executing the application 30 is the pairing digital system 100 as it is. ), Once the pairing digital system 100 executes the application 30, the pairing digital system 100 stores all the information necessary for the execution of the application 30. It may be in the same state as. Therefore, when the execution of the application 30 is terminated, the controller 110 may delete information generated based on the information received from the pair system 200 and / or the received information. In addition, when the application 30 is running, an I / O call, etc. called by the pairing digital system 100 may be monitored to prevent duplication of the application.

Meanwhile, a specific example in which the pair system 200 stores at least part of the necessary information is shown in FIG. 7. 7 is a diagram for describing a method of controlling execution of a specific application according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

First, referring to FIG. 7A, in order for the pairing digital system 100 to control execution of a specific application 61, information necessary for executing the specific application 61, that is, necessary information, is controlled. 60 needs to be defined. The necessary information 60 may be the code itself of the specific application 61. Predetermined key information 62 may be further included in the necessary information 60 according to the type of the specific application 61.

Then, as shown in FIG. 7B, the pairing digital system 100 may store all of the necessary information 60 (61 and 62). Then, the necessary information 60 may not be stored in the pair system 200 at all. In this case, transmission of at least a part of the necessary information 60 may not occur while the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or at least once tagged.

According to another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7C, only a part 61-1 of applications required information is stored in the pairing digital system 100, and the remaining part 61-2 is stored in the pair system 200. May be stored. Then, the remaining portion 61-2 may be transmitted to the pairing digital system 100 while the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or at least once tagged. Then, the controller 110 may combine the portion 61-1 of the application and the portion 61-2 of the application to generate the application 61. The combination of the portion 61-1 and the remaining portion 61-2 of the application may be simply a process of concatenating the two codes, or may be a combination through a predetermined algorithm. A similar process may be performed when the key information 62 is stored separately in the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200.

Meanwhile, as illustrated in FIG. 7D, all of the

necessary information

60 and 61 may be stored in the pair system 200. In this case, all of the necessary information 60 (61 and 62) are transferred to the pairing digital system 100 while the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or at least once tagged. Can be sent.

Meanwhile, the technical idea as described with reference to FIGS. 4, 5, and 7 need not be limited to an application in which the application can modify the first information. That is, the technical idea as described above may be applied to all applications executable in the pairing digital system 100. Of course, the application to which the technical idea of the present invention is applied may be in a predetermined state to be recognized by the controller 110 as needed.

One such example is shown in FIG. 6.

Referring to FIG. 6A, the pairing digital system 100 may execute predetermined applications (eg, 40 and 41). The first application (eg, 40) may be an application to which the technical idea of the present invention is not applied, and the second application (eg, 41) is an application to which the technical idea of the present invention is applied, that is, the pair system 200. May be an application whose execution is controlled by

For example, when a user inputs an execution request of the first application 40 to the pairing digital system 100, the pairing digital system 100 may execute the first application 40.

Meanwhile, when a user inputs a request for execution of the second application 41 to the pairing digital system 100, the pairing digital system 100 is executed to execute the second application 41 as shown in FIG. 6B. ) And the UI 50 indicating that the pairing system 200 is in a pairing state or that tagging should be performed at least once may be displayed.

In this case, at least some of the necessary information corresponding to the second application 41 may be stored in the pair system 200. Even when all the necessary information is stored in the pair system 200, predetermined information (eg, an icon, etc.) for identifying the second application 41 may be stored in the pairing digital system 100. . In this way, the user may recognize that the second application 41 may be executed in the pairing digital system 100 when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or tagged at least once. Able to know. According to an embodiment, when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or tagged at least once, the second application 41 may be automatically executed without a separate execution request.

Meanwhile, according to the spirit of the present invention, the controller 110 may not only control the execution of the second application 41 through the pair system 200, but also provide the second application 41. You can also control the execution of some of the functions. For example, some of the functions of the second application 41 may be executed even when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are not paired or tagged at least once. However, the predetermined function may be executed only when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or tagged at least once. The function to be controlled, that is, information indicating whether the control function is a function, may be registered in advance in the controller 110 or may be included in the second application 41. Then, the controller 110 determines whether the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 have been paired or tagged at least once, and determines whether to execute the control function according to the determination result. You can judge.

The second application 41, that is, the control application controlled by the pair system 200 to which the technical spirit of the present invention is applied may be a user application that may be installed in the pairing digital system 100 by a user. It may be a unit application of an OS or a unit application of firmware which are basically installed in the pairing digital system 100. For example, when the pairing digital system 100 is a mobile phone, the application may be an application that enables a call of the mobile phone. Then, the execution of the application itself may be controlled by the pair system 200, and only some functions (eg, outgoing call functions) of the application may be controlled.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the control application may be an OS or firmware itself for driving specific hardware included in the pairing digital system 100 itself or the pairing digital system 100. In this case, according to the technical spirit of the present invention, the pairing digital system 100 itself is set to be enabled only when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or tagged at least once. May be Of course, at this time, the minimum hardware necessary for performing pairing or tagging and / or software for driving the hardware, such as the communication unit 130 of the pairing digital system 100, should preferably operate normally. The controller 110 may enable or disable the specific hardware by changing or adjusting the setting of the software that drives the specific hardware to be controlled, that is, the application. If necessary, an application (e.g., a device driver) that runs specific hardware when the pairing state or tagging is performed may be a different application. In addition, it is possible to selectively control the specific function of the specific hardware by selectively determining the software for driving the specific hardware or changing the setting of the software. For example, a specific communication chip (eg, a Bluetooth or NFC chip) may be activated only when paired with the pair system 200 or at least once tagged. Alternatively, only a certain function of the communication chip (for example, a card emulation function of the NFC chip) may be controlled. Alternatively, the network device for accessing a predetermined network such as the Internet may be activated only when paired with the pair system 200 or tagged at least once. Various other embodiments may be possible. In particular, when a higher level of security is required, such as reading important information or performing a financial function, the technical idea of the present invention may be more effective.

According to the technical idea of the present invention, the second application 41 may have an excellent security effect by being applied to an authentication related application, an application used for financial transactions, and the like, which require security. For example, the second application 41 may be a client application that connects to a specific financial institution to perform a financial transaction (eg, order, payment, etc. of a transfer, stock or future). The server (not shown) of the specific financial institution may control to perform the financial transaction only through the second application 41. As described above, the second application 41 may be executed only when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are paired or tagged at least once. Then, the financial transaction through the specific financial institution, even if the authentication information for authenticating the user is leaked, unless the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are stolen by a hacker or an illegal acquirer. It may not be allowed and can be very safe.

When the information about the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 is predetermined and registered in the server of the specific financial institution, a higher security effect can be obtained. That is, the financial transaction may be allowed when the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 registered in the server of the specific financial institution are in a pairing state or tagged at least once. To this end, when the second application 41 is executed, the second application 41 transmits identification information of the pairing digital system 100 and / or identification information of the pair system 200 to a server of the specific financial institution. The server may allow the financial transaction only when the registered identification information and the information received from the second application 41 correspond to each other. That is, according to the technical idea of the present invention, when a software corresponding to the software exists in a predetermined software (or an application, for example, the second application 41) that can be executed in the pairing digital system 100, Identification information of the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 is previously stored in the server, and the pairing digital system 100 and / or pair system 200 corresponding to the stored identification information is paired. State or may be controlled to be executed at least once. In this case, even when the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 are forged by an attack, the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system registered in advance (i.e., stored with identification information) in advance. Since only the user having the 200 can execute the software, it can have a significant security improvement effect.

Of course, this technical concept may be applied to a specific function of the second application 41. That is, the execution of the second application 41 may be freely performed, but specific functions (eg, an order of payment, a stock or a gift, payment, etc.) provided by the second application 41 may be performed in the pairing digital system. 100 and the pair system 200 may be executed only when paired or tagged at least once. In this case, the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 may be allowed by the server of the specific financial institution only when the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 are registered in advance in the server of the specific financial institution.

In addition, even when a specific function of the second application 41 or the second application 41 is executed by using a specific hardware (eg, NFC chip, etc.) provided in the pairing digital system 100, the technical Ideas may apply.

8 is a view showing a schematic configuration of a pair system according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 8, the pair system 200 may include a storage device 212 and a communication device 220 capable of communicating with the communication unit 130 provided in the pairing digital system 100. .

According to an embodiment, the pair system 200 may have a data processing capability by itself, and in this case, a predetermined control device 211 may be further provided.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pair system 200 may be implemented as a smart card including the storage device 212 and the control device 211. In this case, the pair system 200 may be a system in which the smart card further includes a communication device 220 for implementing the technical idea of the present invention in the conventional control device 211 and the storage device 212. .

Meanwhile, according to another exemplary embodiment, the pair system 200 may simply perform a function of forming a pair with the pairing digital system 100. In this case, at least one of the control device 211 and / or the storage device 212 may not be included in the pair system 200.

For example, the pair system 200 may include a communication device (eg, an RF communication device, etc.) 220. According to an embodiment, the communication device 220 (eg, an RF communication device, etc.) itself may be the pair system 200. According to an embodiment, the communication device (eg, the RF communication device, etc.) 220 may include a predetermined RF antenna.

The communication device 220 may be implemented with, for example, an RFID tag. According to an implementation example, the pair system 200 itself may be the RFID tag. According to another embodiment, the communication device 220 may include an RF reader. In any case, the communication device 220 may be implemented to communicate with the communication unit 130 included in the pairing digital system 100.

In addition, when the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention are not paired or are over a predetermined distance, the digital system 100 and the pair system 200 In this case, it may further include means for outputting a predetermined alarm signal so that the user can recognize it. The pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 are further provided with means for measuring the distance between the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 to output the alarm signal. May be In some embodiments, the distance may be measured based on a communication state (signal strength, etc.) of the communication unit 130 or the communication device 220. In this case, a separate distance measuring means may not be further provided. It may be.

Meanwhile, the pairing digital system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include an alarm unit 140. The alarm unit 140 may output an alarm signal when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are in an unpaired state (that is, falling more than a predetermined distance).

This example will be described with reference to FIG. 9. 9, the controller 110 included in the pairing digital system 100 may determine whether pairing with the pair system 200 is maintained (S14). That is, the controller 110 can check whether the alarm pairing state. Of course, the alarm pairing function may be activated or deactivated at the request of the user.

When a predetermined event occurs (eg, when a request is input from a user or automatically) in an alarm pairing state, at least a part of necessary information stored in the pair system 200 may be transmitted to the pairing digital system 100. (S24). As described above, execution of a specific application (or a specific function of a specific application) may be controlled, or activation of specific hardware (or a specific function of the specific hardware) may be controlled (S24-1).

On the other hand, when the pairing state (that is, alarm pairing state) is maintained, when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 is in a non-pairing state or when the two

systems

100, 200 are separated by a predetermined distance or more. The alarm output condition may be satisfied. Then, the control unit 110 may control the alarm unit 140 to output a predetermined alarm signal (S34). According to an embodiment, the pair system 200 may also output a predetermined alarm signal (S34-1).

The pair system 200 may also periodically or continuously determine whether a pairing state (ie, an alarm pairing state) with the pairing digital system 100 is maintained. For example, while receiving a predetermined signal with the pairing digital system 100 periodically or continuously, if the signal is no longer received, the pair system 200 may determine that an alarm output condition is satisfied and output an alarm signal. have.

Meanwhile, as described above, regardless of whether the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 are paired, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 are separated by a predetermined distance. The alarm signal may be output when it is determined that the error has fallen.

For example, as described above, the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may be paired only within a first distance (for example, 10 cm), and the alarm signal is greater than or equal to the second distance (for example, several meters). It may be output when the pairing digital system 100 and the pairing system 200 fall.

According to an embodiment, the pairing digital system 100 and / or the pair system 200 provides an alarm pairing function, and the reference distance is set by the pairing digital system 100 or the alarm pairing as described above. Set a distance (eg, 10 meters) or more, set the pairing reference distance for obtaining security information to a narrower distance (eg, 1 meter, 10 centimeters for NFC), and alarm only when outside the reference distance of alarm pairing You can also output a signal.

When the alarm pairing function is deactivated or when the alarm pairing function is not provided, an alarm signal is not output even when the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 satisfy an alarm output condition. Except for the pairing digital system 100 and the pair system 200 may perform the same or similar operations.

The pairing digital system and the method of providing the same according to an embodiment of the present invention can be embodied as computer readable codes on a computer readable recording medium. Computer-readable recording media include all kinds of recording devices that store data that can be read by a computer system. Examples of computer-readable recording media include ROM, RAM, CD-ROM, magnetic tape, hard disk, floppy disk, optical data storage, and the like, and also in the form of carrier waves (e.g., transmission over the Internet). It also includes implementations. The computer readable recording medium can also be distributed over network coupled computer systems so that the computer readable code is stored and executed in a distributed fashion. And functional programs, codes and code segments for implementing the present invention can be easily inferred by programmers in the art to which the present invention belongs.
