METHOD FOR SWITCHING NORMAL USER ACCOUNT TO SUPER USER ACCOUNT AND ACCOUNT SWITCHING SYSTEM USING THE SAME

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for switching an account into a super user account and an account switching system using the same are provided to switch a general user account into the super user account based on information about a logged-in client without the input of a password. CONSTITUTION: A gateway server stores first client information which is existing information about a client who has a history of being switched into a super user account in advance(S310). A request for logging-in through a general user account is inputted from a client(S320). Authentication and permission are proceeded through the analysis of received ID and password(S330). A client who uses the general user account requests account switching for using the super user account(S340). A gateway server collects and obtains second client information which is new information about the client requesting the account switching(S350). The gateway server compares the first client information with the second client information. If the first client information is not matched with second client information(S360-N), the gateway server sends the client a signal with which the password is not matched(S370). If the first client information is matched with second client information(S360-Y), the gateway server processes the matching as the password is inputted(S380). Password processing completion information is transferred to the client(S390).
