Secure profile setting in a shared device
First Claim
1. A system for secure profile setting, said system comprising:
- at least one shared Voice over IP (VoIP) telephone;
an RFID reader module embedded in said at least one shared VoIP telephone;
a database in communication with said at least one shared VoIP telephone;
an RFID transponder module, wherein said RFID transponder module is associated with a user of said at least one shared VoIP telephone using said user'"'"'s biometric data stored in said RFID transponder module, and is configured to transmit a signal to said RFID reader module;
wherein said at least one shared VoIP telephone is configured to identify said user in response to said RFID reader module receiving said signal, wherein said at least one shared VoIP telephone is further configured to retrieve a profile corresponding to said user, in response to being identified by said at least one shared VoIP telephone, from said database, and wherein said at least one shared VoIP telephone is further configured to set said profile, wherein said profile includes personalized settings of said at least one shared VoIP telephone by said user.

Abstract
There is provided a system for secure profile setting that includes at least one shared device and an RFID reader module embedded in the at least one shared device. The system further includes a database that is in communication with the at least one shared device. In the system, an RFID transponder module associated with a user transmits a signal that enables the at least one shared device to identify the user. The RFID transponder module can include a fingerprint scanner module, which can be used to acquire a user'"'"'s fingerprint data to authenticate the user. Thus, after identifying the user, the at least one shared device retrieves a profile corresponding to the user from the database and sets the profile.
