Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a system and method to controlled information disclosure based on user context using principles of Just-In-Time and Just-Enough-Access, during package transportation. The system includes a unique identifier generator module for receiving transportation information, associated with a package, and generates a machine-readable unique identifier. The generated unique identifier is stored in a database and placed on the package. Upon receiving the package at the shipper sites, the unique identifier on the package is scanned using a scanning device with a GPS module and the information is provided to a computing unit, for computing and retrieving information about the next location. Finally, after scanning the unique identifier, at a final location at the time of delivery, the computing unit may invalidate the unique identifier, to prevent unnecessary information reveal about the recipient/sender. Thus, the security problems that arise due to unauthorised information access are eliminated.
