Abstract

See full text

Methods, apparatus, and computer programs for providing encrypted data to an internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS)-capable device. The device is automatically detected when the device is situated in a customer device zone. The customer device zone comprises a spatial volume within which a signal transmitted by the device can be received, and a signal not transmitted by the device can be received by the device. In response to automatic detection of the device, a security key is transmitted to the device so as to enable the device to decode the encrypted data. The device is registered with an IP media subsystem by receiving one or more device attributes transmitted by the device in response to the device receiving the security key. The device attributes specify at least one of a media type, device type, or password for the device.
