Abstract

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.

Claims (56)

1. A method, comprising:

receiving a validation key at a device of a recipient based on at least one authentication setting; and

receiving a message at 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;

at least one type of authentication for the security level; and

is used for a certain security level of the at least one security level;

wherein the device of the recipient is prompted for a quick response when a quick response code is attached to the validation key; and

wherein the quick response code places the message up in priority for quicker receipt.

2. The method of claim 1 , when the validation key is not recognized, returning the message, by the device of the recipient, to a data collection system.

3. The method of claim 1 , comprising generating the validation key which comprises:

accessing data from a personal database; and

storing the validation key in an authentication log.

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 a data collection system.

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 a 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.

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 a data collection system; and

determining whether a quick response code is attached to the validation key.

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 a data collection system.

8. 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 a data collection system; and

discarding the message when the validation key is not recognized.

9. 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.

10. 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.

11. A system, comprising:

a recipient device configured to:

receive a validation key based on at least one authentication setting;

receive a message when a the validation key is recognized:

wherein the at least one authentication setting comprises:

at least one security level for the message;

at least one type of authentication for the security level; and

is used for a certain security level of the at least one security level;

wherein the device of the recipient is prompted for a quick response when a quick response code is attached to the validation key and

wherein the quick response code places the message up in priority for quicker receipt.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the recipient device is communicably coupled to a data collection system.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the recipient device is a data processing system, a mobile device, or a telephone.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the data collection system is a data processing system or a server.

15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the at least one authentication setting comprises at least one security level selected via the recipient device and at least one type of authentication for the at least one security level.

16. The system of claim 11 , wherein a data collection system is configured to access data from a personal database and store the validation key in an authentication log.

17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the recipient device is configured to receive the message and the validation key from a data collection system.

18. The system of claim 11 , wherein the recipient device is configured to perform one or more of: receive the message and the validation key from a data collection system, and determine whether a quick response code is attached to the validation key.

19. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions configured to cause a processor to:

receive a validation key at a device of a recipient based on at least one authentication setting; and

receive a message at 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;

at least one type of authentication for the security level;

is used for a certain security level of the at least one security level;

wherein the device of the recipient is prompted for a quick response when a quick response code is attached to the validation key and

wherein the quick response code places the message up in priority for quicker receipt.

20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 19 comprising instructions configured to cause the processor to return the message to a data collection system when the validation key is not recognized.
