Mobile communication terminal
View Patent ↗A mobile communication terminal moves and backs up a content, which was downloaded from a content server, to a personal computer. When the mobile communication terminal receives an encryption key generation request from the personal computer via a cable, the mobile communication terminal extracts information to be used for generating the encryption key and generates the encryption key by using the extracted information and own telephone number. And the generated encryption key is transmitted to the personal computer via the cable. Accordingly, the backed up and moved content can be reproduced with the personal computer.
1. A mobile communication terminal comprising:
a first interface programmed to communicate with a content server;
a second interface programmed to communicate with an external device; and
a control unit programmed to:
download, via the first interface, a content from the content server;
assign a download time to the content when the content is downloaded, wherein the download time is one of: (i) generated by a clock unit provided in the mobile communication terminal , and (ii) generated based on a time obtained from a base station;
generate a first encryption key based on at least the download time and information inherent to the mobile communication terminal;
obtain an encrypted content by encrypting the content with the generated first encryption key;
move, via the second interface, the encrypted content and the download time to the external device;
receive, via the second interface, a key generation request including the download time from the external device;
generate a second encryption key based on the download time extracted from the key generation request and the information inherent to the mobile communication terminal; and
transmit the second encryption key to the external device;
whereby the content becomes playable at the external device when the second encryption key coincides with the first encryption key, and
wherein the mobile communication terminal is programmed to receive the key generation request from the external device when an input is made on the external device instructing the encrypted content to be played on the external device.
2. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the information is a telephone number of the mobile communication terminal.
3. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit is programmed to establish a secure session with the external device when transmitting the second encryption key to the external device.
4. A mobile communication terminal comprising:
a first interface programmed to communicate with a content server;
a second interface programmed to communicate with an external device; and
a control unit programmed to:
download, via the first interface, a content from the content server;
assign a download time to the content when the content is downloaded, wherein the download time is one of: (i) generated by a clock unit provided in the mobile communication terminal, and (ii) generated based on a time obtained from a base station;
generate a first encryption key based on at least the download time and information inherent to the mobile communication terminal;
obtain an encrypted content by encrypting the content with the generated first encryption key;
provide, via the second interface, the encrypted content and the download time to the external device;
receive, via the second interface, a key generation request including the download time from the external device;
generate a second encryption key based on the download time extracted from the key generation request and the information inherent to the mobile communication terminal; and
transmit the second encryption key to the external device;
whereby the content becomes playable at the external device when the second encryption key coincides with the first encryption key, and
wherein the mobile communication terminal is programmed to receive the key generation request from the external device when an input is made on the external device instructing the encrypted content to be played on the external device.
5. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 4 , wherein the information is a telephone number of the mobile communication terminal.
6. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 4 , wherein the control unit is programmed to establish a secure session with the external device when transmitting the second encryption key to the external device.
7. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 4 , wherein the control unit is programmed to provide the encrypted content and the download time to the external device by backing up, via the second interface, the encrypted content and the download time to the external device.
8. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the information is a telephone number of the mobile communication terminal.
9. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the control unit is programmed to establish a secure session with the external device when transmitting the second encryption key to the external device.
