Abstract

A network resource management system includes: a server a server for constructing therein a database and connection with web sites; an encoder disposed in the server for encoding files downloaded via the server so as to convert the file into an encrypted format; and a decoding software disposed in the computer at a client user end for checking identity and code of the client user against identity in the server and decoding the downloaded file to recover the same into the original file format; whereby all the files downloaded from the server are in an encoded encrypted format upon entering into the computer at the client user end and cannot be displayed in the original file format, and the files have to be encoded to the original format by exclusive decoding software after legitimate licensing and transaction verification for use by the client user, thereby effectively preventing adaptation of network resources.

Claims

1. A network resource management system, comprising:

a server for constructing therein a database and connection with web sites;

an encoder disposed in said server for encoding files downloaded via said server so as to convert the file into an encrypted format; and

a decoding software disposed in the computer at a client user end for checking identity and code of the client user against identity in said server and decoding the downloaded file to recover the same into the original file format;

whereby all the files downloaded from said server are in an encoded encrypted format upon entering into the computer at the client user end and cannot be displayed in the original file format, and the files have to be encoded to the original format by exclusive decoding software after legitimate licensing and transaction verification for use by the client user, thereby effectively preventing adaptation of network resources.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein said decoding software performs verification of the identity of the client user with said server, it can transmit the hardware features of the client user computer to said server for registration such that said resource management system can have the function of checking the hardware of the client user computer, thereby effectively preventing counterfeiting of the identity of the client user.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein said server is capable of constructing complete and diverse electronic digital file formats of text, jpg, gif, rtf, and, through connection with entry web sites and other database, and integration with system platform, facilitates application in digital electronic publication.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein said system can, through construction of search engines and connection with entry web sites, and any carrier that can mediate digital resources, enables the client user to directly browse data provided by data providers of cultural enterprises, organizations or individuals, and provides transaction verification between the client user and the data provider so as to be applied in the agency of network data.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein said decoding software can perform decryption algorithm according to the identity code keyed in by the client user and the decryption word string corresponding to the file in said server, and decode the downloaded file to convert the same into the original file format.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein said decoding software, when performing verification of the identity of the client user with said server, transmit the hardware features of the computer at the client user end to said server to combine with encryption word string of the work for writing at the client user end.

7. The system of claim 4, wherein said data provider linked to said system can convert their file data into encoded encrypted format beforehand for direct dissemination of the file in the form of electronic mails or optical disks and the like without going through encryption by said system.
