Method and system for message delivery security validation
View Patent ↗A method, a system, and computer readable medium comprising instructions for message delivery security validation are provided. At least one authentication setting from an end user is received at a data collection system. A validation key is generated based on the at least one authentication setting. A message and the validation key are sent to a device of a recipient. The device of the recipient are automatically authenticated using the validation key. The message is delivered to the device of the recipient upon authentication.
1. A method for message delivery security validation comprising:
receiving at least one authentication setting from an end user at a data collection system;
generating a validation key based on the at least one authentication setting;
sending a message and the validation key to a device of a recipient;
automatically determining, by the device of the recipient, whether the validation key issued by the data collection system is recognized; and
delivering the message to the device of the recipient when the validation key is recognized;
wherein the at least one authentication setting comprises:
at least one security level for the message selected by the end user; and
at least one type of authentication for the at least one selected security level;
wherein a combination of the types of authentication are used for a certain security level of the at least one selected security level.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein generating a validation key based on at least one authentication setting comprises:
accessing data from a personal database;
generating the validation key based on the data and the at least one authentication setting; and
storing the validation key in an authentication log.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the automatically determining, by the device of the recipient, of whether the validation key is recognized comprises:
receiving the message and the validation key from the data collection system.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the automatically determining, by the device of the recipient, of whether the validation key is recognized comprises:
receiving the message and the validation key from the data collection system;
determining whether a quick response code is attached to the validation key; and
placing the message up in priority for delivery whether the quick response code is attached to the validation key.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the automatically determining, by the device of the recipient, of whether the validation key is recognized comprises:
receiving the message and the validation key from the data collection system;
determining whether a quick response code is attached to the validation key; and
prompting the recipient for a quick response whether the quick response code is attached to the validation key.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the automatically determining, by the device of the recipient, of whether the validation key is recognized comprises:
receiving the message and the validation key from the data collection system; and
returning the message to the data collection system when the validation key is not recognized.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the automatically determining, by the device of the recipient, of whether the validation key is recognized comprises:
receiving the message and the validation key from the data collection system; and
discarding the message when the validation key is not recognized.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining of whether the validation key is recognized comprises:
comparing the validation key against a key of the device of the recipient; and
recognizing the validation key when the validation key matches against the key of the device of the recipient.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the delivering of the message to the recipient upon authentication comprises:
delivering the message to the recipient without interruption.
10. A system for message delivery security validation, comprising:
a device of an end user configured to send a message and selecting at least one authentication setting;
a data collection system communicably coupled to the device of the end user, the data collection system is configured to receive the at least one authentication setting and generate a validation key based on the at least one authentication setting; and
a device of a recipient communicably coupled to the data collection system, the device is configured to automatically determine whether the validation key is recognized and deliver the message to the recipient when the validation key is recognized;
wherein the at least one authentication setting comprises:
at least one security level for the message selected by the end user; and
at least one type of authentication for the at least one selected security level;
wherein a combination of the types of authentication are used for a certain security level of the at least one selected security level.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the device of the end user is a data processing system, a mobile device, or a telephone.
12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the device of the recipient is a data processing system, a mobile device, or a telephone.
13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the data collection system is a data processing system or a server.
14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the data collection system is configured to access data from a personal database, generate the validation key based on the data and the at least one authentication setting, and store the validation key in an authentication log.
15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the device of the recipient is configured to receive the message and the validation key from the data collection system.
16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the device of the end user is configured to receive the message and the validation key from a data collection system, determine whether a quick response code is attached to the validation key, and place the message up in priority for delivery whether the quick response code is attached to the validation key.
17. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions configured to cause a processor to:
receive a message, at least one authentication setting and a validation key generated by a data collection system;
automatically determine whether the validation key is recognized; and
deliver the message to a recipient when the validation key is recognized;
wherein the at least one authentication setting comprises:
at least one security level for the message selected by an end user; and
at least one type of authentication for the at least one selected security level;
wherein a combination of the types of authentication are used for a certain security level of the at least one selected security level.
18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the validation key is generated based on at least one authentication setting set by a device of an end user.
