Abstract

A method, system and device for providing secure access to multimedia content received by a networked digital storage device, such as a set-top box. A mobile device, such as a mobile telephone, obtains appropriate security binding information and application software when coupled to the networked digital storage device at its end user location. The mobile device uploads the security binding information to a randomly located temporary hosting device at its place-shifted location when coupled thereto and, through a logical binding with the temporary hosting device, enables a secure, remote session. The secure binding and transfer of appropriate keys allow the remote hosting device to securely access premium or protected digital material/services available at the networked digital storage device. After completion of the secure, remote access session, termination occurs and the security binding information and the computing activity residue can be removed from the mobile device and the temporary hosting device.
