Abstract:
A device receives login information and a content stream request from a user device connected to a wireless access network, and authenticates, via a backend server device, the user device based on the login information. The device also provides, when the user device is authenticated, a content link and a license key to the user device, and the user device provides the content link and the license key to a content delivery device. The device further verifies the license key for the content delivery device, and the content delivery device establishes a secure connection with the user device via the wireless access network, retrieves the requested content stream based on the content link, and provides the content stream to the user device via the secure connection.

Abstract:
One or more devices transmit, to a user device, an application for secure mobile streaming, and receive, from the user device, a registration request for the application. The registration request includes a user ID and a unique device identifier (UDID) for the user device. The one or more devices initiate a validation procedure for the user ID or UDID. When the user ID or UDID is validated, the one or more devices generate a device-token for the user device. The device-token includes a hash value based on information in the registration request and an expiration date for the device-token. The one or more devices send the device-token to the user device via a private network. The device-token is required to permit the user device to receive a secure content stream via a public network.

US Classification:
709225
Abstract:
A device may receive a first request to determine a public-facing Internet Protocol (IP) address of a mobile device. The device may transmit, in response to the first request, and to the mobile device, the public-facing IP address. The device may receive a second request, from the mobile device, to authenticate the mobile device to receive downloadable content, the second request including the public-facing IP address of the mobile device. The device may receive a third request, from the mobile device, for a license to receive a particular content item and determine whether the public-facing IP address, corresponding to the mobile device, is valid for the particular content item. The device may transmit the license to the mobile device when the public-facing IP address is determined to be valid for the particular content item, where the license includes decryption keys for the particular content item.
