TECHNIQUES FOR SECURE DATA TRANSMISSION USING A SECONDARY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17484940 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR SECURE DATA TRANSMISSION USING A SECONDARY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

Abstract: This patent application describes a system where a computing device can securely transmit user information received from an electronic device. The computing device configures a secure data exchange module for conducting the secure transmission and provides a user interface for the process. It also receives confirmation of successful processing of the user information and provides an indication of this confirmation.

  • The computing device receives a request from an electronic device to securely transmit user information.
  • It configures a secure data exchange module to ensure the secure transmission of the user information.
  • A notification is sent to the electronic device to inform about the secure transmission process.
  • The computing device provides a user interface for conducting the secure transmission of the user information.
  • The user information is received and/or sent using the secure data exchange module.
  • The computing device transmits the user information back to the electronic device via a wireless connection.
  • Confirmation of successful processing of the user information is received from the electronic device.
  • An indication of this confirmation is provided by the computing device.

Potential Applications:

  • Securely transmitting sensitive user information, such as financial data or personal identification information.
  • Facilitating secure data exchange between different electronic devices.
  • Enabling secure transmission of user information in various industries, including healthcare, banking, and e-commerce.

Problems Solved:

  • Ensuring the secure transmission of user information to prevent unauthorized access or data breaches.
  • Simplifying the process of securely transmitting user information between electronic devices.
  • Providing a reliable and efficient method for confirming the successful processing of user information.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced security and privacy for user information during transmission.
  • Streamlined and user-friendly interface for conducting secure data exchange.
  • Improved efficiency and reliability in confirming the successful processing of user information.


Original Abstract Submitted

A computing device may receive, from an electronic device and via a wireless connection, a request to securely transmit user information using a secure data exchange module of the computing device. The computing device may configure the secure data exchange module for conducting a secure transmission of the user information and transmit a notification to the electronic device. The computing device may provide a user interface on the computing device for conducting the secure transmission of the user information. The computing device may receive and/or send, via the secure data exchange module, the user information. The computing device may transmit, via the wireless connection, the user information to the electronic device. The computing device may receive, from the electronic device, confirmation of a successful processing of the user information. The computing device may provide an indication of the confirmation of the successful processing of the user information.
