==Portable Access Point for Secure User Information Using a Blockchain Backed Credential - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240129313 titled 'Portable Access Point for Secure User Information Using a Blockchain Backed Credential

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a system that allows users to control access to their secure information using blockchain-backed credentials. Users can define the scope of access for vetted entities and share their information securely.

* Users can register with a secure information manager to control access to their secure information.
* Users can permit vetted entities access to their information via a portable access point.
* Users can select scope definitions to control how their information is shared with vetted entities.
* Vetted entities can request a blockchain-backed credential from the user's portable access point.
* The credential is assigned access privileges based on the user's selections.
* Vetted entities can issue data access requests using the credential.
* The secure information manager can grant scope-limited access to the user's information based on the access privileges assigned to the credential.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology can be applied in industries such as healthcare, finance, and government where secure information sharing is crucial.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology solves the problem of unauthorized access to sensitive information and provides users with control over who can access their data.

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include enhanced security, user control over data access, and improved trust in information sharing processes.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
One potential commercial application of this technology is in data management platforms that require secure and controlled access to sensitive information.

== Possible Prior Art ==
One possible prior art for this technology could be existing blockchain-based credential systems used for secure data sharing.

=== Unanswered Questions ===

=== How does the system handle credential revocation? ===
The article does not mention how the system manages the revocation of credentials in case access needs to be revoked for a vetted entity.

=== What measures are in place to prevent credential misuse? ===
The article does not detail the security measures implemented to prevent the misuse of blockchain-backed credentials by unauthorized entities.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

embodiments permit scope limited access to a user's secure information using blockchain backed credential(s). a user can register with a secure information manager and control the scope with which the user's secure information is shared. for example, the user can permit a vetted entity access to the user's secure information via a portable access point. the user can select scope definition that control how the user's secure information is shared with the vetted entity. the vetted entity can scan the user's portable access point and request a credential. the credential can be a blockchain backed credential that is assigned access privileges that correspond the user's selections. the vetted entity can then issue data access request(s) using the credential. the secure information manager can permit the vetted entity scope limited access to the user's secure information that corresponds to the access privileges assigned to the credential.
