MESSAGE ENCRYPTION METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18149460 titled 'MESSAGE ENCRYPTION METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an electronic device that facilitates secure communication between two devices. Here are the key points:

  • The electronic device includes a communication module, a memory, and a server processor.
  • The server processor is connected to the communication module and the memory.
  • The server processor acquires a message encrypted with security information about the second electronic device from the first electronic device.
  • The server processor then transmits the encrypted message to the second electronic device.
  • If the second electronic device fails to decrypt the message, it sends a decryption failure signal back to the server processor.
  • The server processor relays this decryption failure signal to the first electronic device.
  • The server processor also acquires second security information about the second electronic device from it and transmits it to the first electronic device.
  • The server processor can receive a second message encrypted with the second security information from the first electronic device.
  • It can then transmit this received second message to the second electronic device.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Secure communication between electronic devices.
  • Encryption and decryption of messages for secure transmission.
  • Facilitating secure data exchange between devices.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures secure communication by using encryption and decryption techniques.
  • Provides a mechanism to handle decryption failures and notify the relevant parties.
  • Facilitates the exchange of security information between devices for secure communication.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced security and privacy in electronic communication.
  • Efficient handling of decryption failures and error notifications.
  • Simplified exchange of security information between devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication module, a memory, and a server processor operably connected to the communication module and the memory. The server processor acquires, from the first electronic device, a first message encrypted based on first security information about the second electronic device, so as to transmit the first message to the second electronic device, acquires, from the second electronic device, a decryption failure signal for the first message so as to transmit the decryption failure signal to the first electronic device, acquires, from the second electronic device, second security information about the second electronic device so as to transmit same to the first electronic device, receives, from the first electronic device, a second message encrypted based on the second security information, and can transmit the received second message to the second electronic device.
