MRCP resource access control mechanism for mobile devices
View Patent ↗A system and method for Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP) access control for a mobile device. An entity requesting to utilize MRCP resources establishes a relationship with a MRCP resource provider. The MRCP resource provider maintains account information for the entity, and the entity receives a unique account number for identification purposes. The entity requests from the MRCP resource provider generation of at least one MRCP access PIN associated with the account information, and provides a data string associated with the MRCP access PIN to the MRCP resource provider.
1. A method, comprising:
receiving a request from an entity to generate at least one Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP) access Personal Identification Number (PIN);
generating the MRCP access PIN by an MRCP resource provider;
receiving, with the request, a data string to be associated with the at least one generated MRCP access PIN from the entity, wherein the data string includes cross-check data which is used to determine if a Media Resource transaction will be allowed; and
associating the at least one generated MRCP access PIN to an account of the entity and the data string.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the entity, a unique account number identifying the entity.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the entity, a plurality of account numbers, each of the plurality of account numbers is associated with a different campaign.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the entity, sub-accounts that are separately maintained.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the mobile device, a session ID upon establishing a session with the entity.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the session ID is unique during the session.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the at least one MRCP access PIN is unique to the session.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the at least one MRCP access PIN is associated with the session at the point in time when the MRCP resources are required in the session.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein credentials selected from the group consisting of account information for the entity, the MRCP access PIN, cross-check data, session ID, and session expiration are sent to the MRCP resource provider.
10. The method of claim 5 , further comprising providing billing information utilizing the at least one MRCP access PIN and the session ID.
11. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that when read by a processor performs:
receiving a request from an entity to generate at least one Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP) access Personal Identification Number (PIN);
generating the MRCP access PIN by an MRCP resource provider;
receiving, with the request, a data string to be associated with the at least one generated MRCP access PIN from the entity, wherein the data string includes cross-check data which is used to determine if a Media Resource transaction will be allowed; and
associating the at least one generated MRCP access PIN to an account of the entity and the data string.
12. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , further comprising instructions that when read by a processor performs receiving, by the entity, a unique account number identifying the entity.
13. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , further comprising instructions that when read by a processor performs receiving, by the entity, a plurality of account numbers, each of the plurality of account numbers is associated with a different campaign.
14. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , further comprising instructions that when read by a processor performs receiving, by the entity, sub-accounts that are separately maintained.
15. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , further comprising instructions that when read by a processor performs receiving, by the mobile device, a session ID upon establishing a session with the entity.
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the session ID is unique during the session.
17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the at least one MRCP access PIN is unique to the session.
18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the at least one MRCP access PIN is associated with the session at the point in time when the MRCP resources are required in the session.
19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein credentials selected from the group consisting of account information for the entity, the MRCP access PIN, cross-check data, session ID, and session expiration are sent to the MRCP resource provider.
20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that when read by a processor performs providing billing information utilizing the at least one MRCP access PIN and the session ID.
