Example

The present invention discloses a method for associating an application program with the IMEI of a mobile terminal on which it is mounted. The method for associating at least includes the following steps.

Wherein, the application program may be any App that can be followed and run on a mobile device. The mobile terminal is an intelligent terminal device capable of installing and using a telephone card for communication, such as various mobile phone devices.

Among them, IMEI, International Mobile Equipment Identity, International Mobile Equipment Identity, which is commonly referred to as a mobile phone serial number and a mobile phone "serial number", is used to identify each independent mobile phone and other mobile communication equipment in the mobile phone network. ID card for mobile phone.

Step S1: Acquire the phone number of the mobile terminal on board based on the application.

Preferably, in step S1, the application program completes the acquisition of the phone number of the mounted mobile terminal based on the automatic reading function and/or the manual input function.

Specifically, if the mobile terminal grants the access right of "read phone number" to the application, the application will directly complete the extraction of the phone number. When the application is not authorized, either the user has not granted the permission, or the user has not granted the permission of the third-party application in the system settings, and then the user manually enters the phone number.

Step S2: The first server corresponding to the application program completes the reception of the telephone number in step S1, and generates an OTP instruction uniquely related to the event.

Preferably, the first server is located remotely and communicates with the application program data on the mobile terminal via the network.

After the first server receives the phone number from the App installed on the mobile device, plus the timestamp and other encrypted information, the first server generates an OTP uniquely linked to the event.

OTP, One Time Password, also known as "one-time password", refers to a password that can only be used once. The one-time password is an unpredictable random number combination generated every 60 seconds according to a special algorithm. One-time passwords have been widely used in finance, telecommunications, online games and other fields, and can effectively protect user data security.

Step S3: The first server sends at least the telephone number and OTP instruction data to the telecommunication processing terminal.

S4: The telecommunication processing terminal sends the OTP instruction to the mobile terminal corresponding to the phone number that it accepts based on the phone number information of the step S3.

Preferably, the telecommunication processing terminal sends the OTP command to the mobile terminal corresponding to its accepted telephone number via SMS.

S5: The application program completes the binding of the phone number and the application program on the basis of completing the verification of the sender information and the verification of the OTP instruction.

Preferably, the application program waits for an OTP SMS from a specific sender after completing the phone number collection. The specific sender here is the telecommunications processing end. This is to prevent the user from providing another phone number to verify the current call. Record the time stamp so that the user does not have enough time to switch the SIM card to another mobile phone to receive SMS.

Therefore, the verification of the SMS sender can prevent the user from forwarding the SMS containing the OTP to another device or manually inputting the OTP received by another device.

S6: The first server requests the telecommunication processing terminal to send the IMEI of the mobile terminal bound to the phone number associated with the OTP instruction, and the application program completes the binding of the IMEI of the mobile terminal.

Preferably, on the basis of completing sender information verification and OTP instruction verification, the application program receives IMEI information of the mobile terminal sent by the telecommunication processing terminal and completes the binding with the application program to complete the phone uniqueness verification. Thus after completing this process, IMEI will be uniquely linked to the application and the mobile device. Because the phone number is registered in the database of the telecommunication processing end, and the phone is connected to the network when the application is started, the telecommunication knows the IMEI number associated with each phone number.

At the same time, through the verification of the OTP, it can be ensured that the IMEI information received is the IMEI data of the mobile terminal associated with the phone number, avoiding the situation where the application program receives the IMEI corresponding to the phone number of the non-local phone.

The aforementioned basic examples of the present invention and each of its further alternative examples can be freely combined to form multiple embodiments, which are all applicable and claimed embodiments of the present invention. In the scheme of the present invention, each alternative example can be combined with any other basic examples and alternative examples arbitrarily. The above descriptions are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection of the present invention. Within range.
