Abstract

A communication session is established, via a wireless communication link, with a mobile communication device that is connected to a computer system. The mobile communication device is enumerated by the computer system as a locally attached mass storage device. An authentication executable file is sent to the mobile communication device. A response generated by the computer system executing the authentication executable file is received from the mobile communication device. Based on the response generated by the computer system executing the authentication executable file, access to a data file that is stored by a mass storage system via a network is granted.
