INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240015021 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing device that includes three units: a first recording unit, a verification unit, and a second recording unit.

  • The first recording unit is responsible for recording information about the browsing rights of data in a blockchain, in response to a request from an information management device that manages data.
  • The verification unit is responsible for verifying a zero-knowledge proof, which proves that a user is a valid user who has been given the browsing right based on the information recorded in the blockchain.
  • The second recording unit is responsible for recording information about the verification result of the proof in the blockchain.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Data management systems that require secure and verifiable browsing rights for users.
  • Blockchain-based platforms that need to ensure the validity of users' browsing rights.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures that only valid users with browsing rights can access and browse specific data.
  • Provides a secure and tamper-proof method for recording and verifying browsing rights in a blockchain.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced security and privacy by using zero-knowledge proofs to verify users' browsing rights.
  • Improved transparency and trust in data management systems through the use of blockchain technology.
  • Simplified and efficient management of browsing rights for data in a decentralized manner.


Original Abstract Submitted

an information processing device () includes a first recording unit (), a verification unit (), and a second recording unit (). in response to a request from an information management device () that manages data, the first recording unit () records information regarding a browsing right of data in a blockchain. the verification unit () verifies a zero-knowledge proof for proving that a user is a valid user who has been given the browsing right on the basis of the information regarding the browsing right written in the blockchain. the second recording unit () records information regarding a verification result of the proof in the blockchain.
