Abstract

A server receives identifying information of a user of a client device and data encrypted with a public key of a group, where the encrypted data includes an encrypted session key for secure content. The server determines whether the user is a member of the group using the identifying information of the user. If the user is a member of the group, the server decrypts the encrypted session key using a private key of the group, and causes the client device to obtain a session key to access the secure content.
